Gorgeous Ocean Views
House is as shown in pictures. Everything we needed for our 5 weeks on the Big Island. Very spacious and comfortable. The pool and spa are actually larger than they look in pictures. Mahalo to Nick from Elite Property Management. Very responsive and helpful to work with!

Perfect Pacific Paradise
I cannot say enough good things about this property. Once you step onto the property, you cannot help but relax. With breathtaking views of the Pacific, rainbows morning and afternoon, picture perfect sunsets, and birds singing to you daily. We knew we’d be driving around the island to enter the water in different places, so we wanted a quiet house nestled in the hillside. It exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this house. The kitchen is well appointed and the pool/spa was a welcome respite from our daily drives around the island.
I would not hesitate one bit to rent this property again. I’m already thinking of when I can get back....
