  When we arrived, the entire house was immaculate. The housekeeping staff did an excellent job of cleaning! The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The decor and furnishings are very upscale and classy. The location is outstanding and we spent a lot of time out on the upper deck. Overall, we could not think of a better place to stay and cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay at Kahikole!!

  Amazing location, convenient and super clean. Breathtaking views of the ocean and sunrise! Excellent whale watching spot if they are migrating. Entire house was spotless, well maintained and felt like home. We saw sea turtles and whales. The sound of the ocean and Coqui frogs put us to sleep every night and woke to the most amazing sunrises every morning. Highly recommend and definitely would return to this paradise-like home.

  Scott W from Kekaha, HI recommends this vacation rental

  Our stay in 2024 was an encore performance of our 2023 stay.
  The house has a preferred location in this coast of upscale options.
  After staying there for a longer time, one realizes the advantages of being on this small stretch of shoreline because it is oriented in such a way to get a lot less salt spray from the ocean. That helps to keep the windows clean of salt and allow you to view the most amazing view of the ocean anywhere. This being the whale season, this year sightings didn't disappoint. There were also dolphins and turtles, so it was the wildlife trifecta. Driving into Hilo is an easy drive if you need more restaurant options. It is quiet and peaceful here, with an ever changing sky over the ocean. There is never a bad day here. The staff at Salt Water are top notch to work with. Don't hesitate to stay here.

  My husband and I spent 3 nights (not long enough) at this stunning serene oceanside home. To fall asleep to the sound of the waves and wake up to the sun exploding from the ocean was amazing! We spent so much time sitting outside watching the waves and the sea turtles playing in them. The home was so clean and had extra special touches to make it all the more comfortable. Kitchen had everything needed to cook meals in. The pride the owners take in this home shows! We spent the remainder of our time on the Kona side wishing we had stayed in this home longer. 10 out of 10 recommend!

  Staying at the property feels like you are looking out the front of a cruise ship. Beautifully renovated with interesting design features.

If you love the ocean, watching amazing sunrises and moon rises over the ocean, then this is the place for you.

  My husband and I plus another couple stayed in this rental for 9 nights in December. We've stayed in HPP several times and this is a great location right on the cliffs. We had beautiful sunrises during our stay. We utilize the full kitchen for most breakfasts and a few dinners. The W/D is great so we didn't have a suitcase full of dirty laundry to take home. The extra bathroom was great when we were all getting ready. We felt close enough to Hilo town and HVNP but far enough away to feel private and quiet. If we had questions, we always got a quick response by the property manager. Overall we had a great experience here.

  The home was clean, quiet & spacious. Had lots of items in the kitchen for cooking. LOVED the balcony & deck. So gorgeous!!

It wasn’t too bad but one day a little toasty. Communication was great. Would totally stay here again

  When you enter the gates the first things you notice is the beautiful landscape and the sounds of birds and the waves. The 2 master suites downstairs were well decorated with Island art. Beds were very comfortable. The bathrooms were stocked with towels, shampoo and conditioner. When you reach the top of the stairs you are greeted with an unobstructed view of the ocean framed by tropical plants. The patio furniture is comfortable and perfect for viewing sunrises, dolphins and sea turtles. We loved the layout upstairs. The furniture was comfortable. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need, including spices, condiments and utensils. We loved sitting on the deck at night listening to the Coqui frogs and crashing waves. The house is close enough to walk to Shipman Beach. It’s a rugged, but beautiful 2 1/2 mile walk through rainforest to reach a gorgeous, secluded beach. Driving distance to Hilo was easy. We were also close to Volcano National Park and saw the lava, petroglyphs, and walked the Kilauea Iki trail. We went horseback riding in Waipio Valley. If you have any questions or concerns, the property managers are very quick to respond. We throughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend it.

The place is so nicely decorated, the beds comfortable and THE VIEW IS FANTASTIC!! We spent most of our time out on the lanai that overlooks the ocean, or down on the rocks watching the big waves! We spotted Sea Turtles and dolphins a few times as well. We loved the quiet location and thought it was well within good distance from Hilo and other places we wanted to go.

  We very much enjoyed our stay. It was private with beautiful views and maintained landscaping, and a central location to enjoy the sights around the island. It was away from the more touristy areas, but accessible, which we prefer. I enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset from the balcony. The home was immaculate and well appointed. We had plenty of space for our family of four. There is no air conditioning (as advertised) but we felt cool enough at night with the windows cracked. The home is very well maintained for being on the ocean. The property manager was proactive with providing information and responsive when we had an issue getting the code to work on the door, even though it was late.

  We stayed here with another couple and it was absolutely perfect. 2 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms between the 4 of us. Never felt crowded. Kitchen was fully stocked to be able to cook meals. The views are unbelievable. We basically spent 90% of our stay outside at either of the tables or in the chairs on the lanai.
  Communication with the concierge was great before nad during the stay. The check in/out process was also very easy.
  I would definitely go grocery shopping to get all your essentials ahead of time. Closest grocery store is about 20 minutes away. If you don't mind not being near a major town and like quiet and relaxed then this is the spot for you! I had never been to the east coast of Hawaii and now would definitely come back

  For those that rise before dawn, you could not find a better location for sunrise! The property is well maintained and feels very secluded. The house is updated and tastefully decorated. Internet worked well, allowing us to stay connected.

  We had to get our house termite-tented during the pandemic and had the lovely experience of staying in this great house while it happened. Actually, we ended up extending twice because we didn't wanna leave! If you're like me and you LOVE to cook, this is the place. We grilled every night and took full advantage of the very well-equipped kitchen. Had some super memorable meals and good times pigging out on the lanai as the sun went down. Everything was in great shape and the house was SO clean - which is not an easy task when you are RIGHT on the ocean. the views are to die for, and the neighborhood is delightful. I wanted to go back as soon as I left. STAY HERE!
