Absolute Oceanfront on Ancient Lava Cliffs! Whales, dolphins, turtles!
Swap the daily grind for luxurious absolute oceanfront tranquility with an escape to Paradise Breeze Retreat in Keaau, Hawaii. Only a 25 minute drive from Hilo Airport but a world away from stress. Stunning panoramic oceanfront views from every room and the audible delights of ocean waves provide an immersive Hawaiian island experience. Need to relax? Check out the 5 person hot tub spa! Need to work? Take advantage of free, fast fiber WIFI to be the envy of Zoom meetings. Fastest internet available on the island! Spinner dolphins, sea turtles and whales (November through March) beat any virtual background.
The Space: Beautiful furnishings, designed by NestEgg Designs, make the experience on the other side of your keypad protected private entrance as memorable as the coastal treasures provided by nature.
The chef-inspired kitchen with new stainless steel appliances is stocked with all the cooking utensils, pots, pans and dishes needed to cook delicious seaside meals. Serve your culinary delights with a side of paradise in a dining area with panoramic ocean views and a sliding door that opens up to the lanai.
For a complete oceanfront dining experience, pull up a chair on the lanai dining table or gather around the outdoor seating area. Allow the Hawaiian sea breeze to accompany your views of the beautiful lava rock cliffs and black sands of your paradise retreat.
There are two comfortable and stylish bedrooms from which to choose. The first bedroom features ocean views, a queen bed, floor to celling blackout curtains and a sliding screen door that leads out to the lanai. Accessible through bedroom one, the second bedroom has a queen bed, office desk and ample clothing storage.
Freshening up is a joy in the well-appointed bathroom featuring soft towels, hairdryer, toiletries and other travel amenities.
Paradise Breeze Retreat Amenities include:
Fastest Fiber WIFI available on the island, WiFi mesh system covers the entire property in case you want to work outside on the beautiful lanai, 5 person 38 jet Master Spas hot tub, Air conditioner and dehumidifier, free Parking, Full-sized stainless steel refrigerator, 5 burner Samsung stove w/ convection oven, dishwasher, cooking utensils, pots, pans, dishes, 55-inch HiDef Samsung Smart TV, Washer and dryer in unit, boogie/body surfing boards, beach towels and a cooler for your beach excursions.
Other Details To Note: All of the Big Island is rural and therefore can have the sounds of coqui frogs and roosters (they are wild throughout Hawaii) at night. Our retreat backs up to the ocean so most of these sounds will not bother you here. Please note the bedrooms are tandem meaning you have to walk through one bedroom to get to the other. There is a floor to ceiling blackout curtain in the first room that can be closed for privacy. This is a hosted rental meaning per Hawaiian law there is a host that lives in a separate unit on site. They are available for tourism advice, restaurant recommendations, maintenance needs or anything else that may arise.

No shoes in the house. This is common throughout Hawai'i.
No Parties or Events allowed. No outside guests. No visitors.
Please take care of the furnishings. Do not move the furniture.
Please keep the doors and windows closed at all times for two reasons. 1.

We can go from a beautiful sunny day to torrential sideways rain in no time! You will want the doors and windows closed when this happens.
Please turn the Air Conditioning/Dehumidifier off when you leave and when you are not using it. Hawaii has the highest electricity rates in the country, so please help with this!

Please take care of the furnishings. Do not move any of the furniture or rocks on the property. Please turn the Air Conditioning off when you leave and when you are not using it. Hawaii has the highest electricity rates in the country, so please help with this!

The views are amazing and the crashing waves were so fun to watch! The accommodations were perfect for our purposes. The only thing to note is that the second bedroom is accessed by passing through the first bedroom. There is a curtain to draw for privacy. This was not a problem for us. Great stay in a beautiful spot!

Absolutely Wonderful!
Perfect place with a breathtaking view of the amazing Pacific Ocean! When we first entered the house, we were surprised to find wine, candy, and a variety of treats made in Hawaii on a the counter. The refrigerator was stocked with bottled water, Hawaiian drinks, and condiments. The kitchen was well stocked. The bathroom was stocked with basics such as sunscreen, lotion, shampoo, etc. The bedrooms and living room had beautiful windows or sliding glass doors that opened to a beautiful garden and view of the ocean. The whole house was spotless. This is the second time we’ve stayed in this area and we absolutely love it. The sunrises are spectacular! Chase and Alison were very helpful and wonderful hosts.

Relax on one of the Adirondack chairs, while sipping your morning coffee and marveling at the black lava right below your feet.

The hosts have thought of everything at this location… it is truly as advertised, and then some! We were extremely pleased with the living space, comfortable beds and overall accommodations inside. The outside of the property is beyond amazing, as well, giving mesmerizing views of the Pacific. The property is very neat and clean, with attention to details by the host. We had everything we needed, and then some, including a very comfortable, new bed. Communication form the host was perfect, and we could not have asked for more. We will definitely be back!

This property is absolutely beautiful! Ocean is just outside your door. We stayed in Jan-Feb and saw lots of whales. Close to Volcano National Park. Hilo is only 10 miles away. Nice kitchen, bathroom. Chase (host) is awesome! Always ready and willing to provide information and helpful suggestions on what to do/where to go.

Fantastic value in a stellar location
The major pros to renting this home were how close it was to the water on an amazing old lava flow. The views were spectacular and the sunset/sunrise was breathtaking. We very much appreciated the cleanliness of the home and the size was perfect for us. The only issue for us was the size and comfort level that the beds provided - both were more "double" than queen sized and the mattresses weren't great - the saving grace was definitely the sound of crashing waves that helped lull us to sleep. Would still recommend this spot to anyone despite the fact that the beds could use an upgrade.
This beautifully decorated oceanfront home had everything the three of us we needed for a perfect Christmas holiday. We loved walking out from the covered patio onto the backyard lava cliff to watch the rolling turquoise waves, and sometimes saw sea turtles swimming. While dining on the patio we spotted whales spouting and breaching!
There is great communication with the owner, but also a very helpful booklet they’ve made of the best nearby beaches, activities, and dining. The kitchen is fully equipped. While cooking you can see orchids on the palms outside the window. We were impressed with the details that added to the beauty, comfort, and joyful experience at this home.
