We stayed at this house for 30 days. Very comfortable. They thought of everything.. We could have stayed there longer. The manager was close by and took care of our every need. Could not have been better. House is in a typical neighborhood, not a tourist trap. If there was a negative, it was the chickens. They crowded all the time.,, but we got used to them. Over all, a great place to stay and relax. Again, the manager was terrific.

Very nice and very comfortable house. The hosts were great. They greeted us upon arrival and provided detailed explanations about the house. They answered all our questions and recommended grocery stores, restaurants, and places to visit. We accidentally left our Kindle and glasses in the bedroom when we checked out. We contacted Judith, and she was so kind to mail our belongings back to us.

Home away from home on the Big Island

We have visited various Hawaiian Islands frequently for the past thirty years. This house was the newest, most well equipped and cared for, of all residences we have stayed in, whether private or at resorts. It truly felt like home. The house is well located for experiencing what the east side of the Big Island has to offer. It is not located well for the types of sand beaches you can experience on the Kona side of the island, they do not exist on the east side. The area around the house is a local, remote community. It was difficult to walk or run in these neighborhoods, with no side walks, and numerous ill mannered dogs.We hiked at Volcanoes National park, snorkeled at Richardson Ocean Park, and spent numerous mornings and evenings near the house, at a stunning, island dream spot, right down the street, known as Maku'u point. There is a 2.5 mile road that follows the scenic shoreline from Maku'u point, well worth visiting.

A little off the beaten path but convenient to everything we wanted. Lovely home, comfortable, everything we needed and then some.

We all agreed, we’ll be back!

Best VRBO ever!

Seriously, one of the best stays we’ve ever had through VRBO. Place was VERY clean, cozy, and super cute. We felt very comfortable here, almost as if we were staying at a family members house. Property managers were friendly, met us at check-in and was a smooth process. Even though we weren’t here much throughout the daytime, it was so nice coming back to this property and relaxing. The kitchen has everything you need if you plan on cooking meals during vacay. A/C works great to cool off rooms plus fans available if you’re used to sleeping with them. The king mattress is also very comfortable in the master bedroom. Do NOT hesitate - book here and you will have a great stay! Would 110% book here again if we ever came back.

Wonderful stay in Keaau!

We (a family of four adults) had a great time in this beautiful home! The house is quite spacious, the beds are very comfortable as well as the common areas and the kitchen is very well equipped. We cooked most of our meals and enjoyed the comfort of having the AC after a day “toasting” in the sun and the nice TV for late night movies. The hosts are very nice and were waiting for us at the agreed time to explained a few things you need to know about the appliances and water. So, in short, that's pretty much a perfect place to stay close to Hilo!

Judith and Ken were accommodating when we landed on Hilo. After 10:00pm they both greeted my husband and I on the lanai. They quickly went over the rules. This home is a beautiful and a home away from home. The stars are beautiful at night and you can see Orion and Taurus. The neighborhood is quiet. A definite place to be in while you’re visiting the Big Island.

Hilo Gem

We loved our stay. Judy and Ken met us at the house at 9:30pm. They were super kind and informative. The house was perfectly sized for the 5 of us. In addition to regular amenities, we also had umbrellas for rainy Hilo, and beach towels for beach time. The house was clean and beautifully decorated. Very tastefully beachy. Bathrooms were clean and the towels were luxurious. Shampoo, conditioner, and lotion were provided, which was unexpected but appreciated greatly. Liquid hand soap was in bathrooms and kitchen, another bonus delight. The kitchen was well-stocked of dishes and utensils. We were delighted that there were spices in the cupboards and condiments in the fridge. Maybe an electric kettle and rice cooker would be nice, but we put the microwave to good use. We were concerned that the one AC unit in the living room would not be enough, but we figured it out. Evenings were always cool, so we slept very well. The location is central to EVERYTHING. We were 30 minutes from downtown Hilo, and 45 minutes to Volcano National Park. Malama Market in Puna Kai Shopping Center is only 12 minutes away by car, if you need groceries and sundries. Also, the house is close to many farmer's markets! Judy and Ken provided a house that felt like a home for us on our first trip to Hawaii. Thank you so much. I highly recommend this listing!!!

First Time to the Big Island

This was our first time to the Big Island! The property was amazing…approximately 25 minutes from Hilo which allowed us a quiet place to re-group after each busy day exploring the amazing sights! The property was clean, neat, comfortable had all of the amenities for a long stay! The property managers were great folks, easy to talk to and gave us great advice on local “gem” beaches, gardens and restaurants! Would go back and use this property in a heartbeat and will certainly keep that as an option if returning to the Big Island in the future! Cannot say enough good things! David (Folsom, CA)

They gave us a quick tour of the property and made sure they answered all our questions. The home was equipped with all kinds of amenities . Ms Judy was amazing and friendly.

Living Vicariously

My family and I are not really beach people. We would rather pretend to live somewhere else than be tourists. This property was perfect for our needs. The house was wonderful; beach decor, immaculately clean, and well-stocked. The neighborhood is quiet except for the sounds of the evening frogs, morning roosters, and raindrops on tht tin roof. The location was near the hiking trails we wanted to explore and not too far from Hilo. By far, the eastern end is my favorite place on the island.
