Waipio Valley and Ocean View

Enjoy this breathtaking fully equipped home over looking Waipio Valley up close in this 4 bedroom, 2 bath and outside shower home with incredible views. There are plenty of rooms and views for a family or group of friends to experience the lush and tropical surroundings. You can swim, surf, boggie board or picnic at at any beach on the Big Island.
Alternatively you can see Maui, whales, dolphins and rainbows from your very private lanai or just fall asleep in the hammock to ocean sounds of waves below. We are now the closest VRBO location to Waipio Valley due to recent valley access changes. (4X4 access to none residents limited now, or up in the air, to the valley but normal vehicle rental works for the home).

Family friendly spring break location

My husband and I stayed here years ago for our anniversary and loved it so much, we came back! We brought our family and some friends and their kids. It was a great set up for all of us. And lovely location! Breathtaking views of the valley and the ability to easily get to the quaint town of Honoka’a. We specifically chose this location so we could have a central spot to come back to after exploring parts of the northern area of the island. Highly recommend!

Fantastic property, wonderful vacation home.

We truly enjoyed our weeklong stay at this house. Hosts were very friendly and helpful. The view was incredible, and the house was clean and well stocked. We all especially enjoyed the outdoor shower which has the same incredible view. :) We would stay here again for sure.

Relaxation with the perfect view.

The two words that describe this property best are Beautiful and Relaxing. The view is spectacular and is as described and shown, but even better in person. There is lots of indoor and outdoor space with comfortable furnishings. The outdoor shower is amazing, wish I could have brought it home with me. Definitely would stay here again.

Bucket List Stay

Impossible to describe the views and the surroundings at this unique home. Plenty of room, full kitchen, amazing outdoor shower, beautiful well appointed home. And - you sleep in a rainforest with this unbelievable view and sounds and stars at night that are just unmatched -- and still an hour from Big Island beaches. Honokaa is a great little town 15 min away. Property managers are fantastic. Once in a lifetime kind of stay.

Comfortable spacious home with covered lanai that runs the full length of the house. We spent most of our time outside absorbing this unspoiled view that other tourists just fly by in a helicopter. Nothing compares.

Amazing

Our stay was so phenomenal that I don’t know how to keep it short. The view is amazing, you can’t believe it is your view for your stay. The house was spotless, everything we needed was here. The beds were comfy, you can sleep with the patio doors open all night and listen to nature. The host was over the top wonderful! She went out of her way to make our stay perfect. She knows all she helped us with and we thank her for making our trip fantastic. We would give her 10 stars if possible! Aloha for the wonderful week!

Memorable stay

I wanted to find a nature-friendly stay for my family of 6 adults and there could not have been a better place. Just staying in the house was a blissful experience and we had a 7 passenger van (not a 4. wheel drive) and when we put it on low gear it was not a problem getting in and out the house altho there was a bit of an angle. Noah is amazing ! knows so much about the surroundings and genuine appreciation for the nature. Cemile was super helpful ! she was always accessible and super friendly. Everything was perfect about the trip !!! Im still dreaming of this place !!!

A view from heaven and friendly host

Camille (Jamille) provided us with variety of fruit that we cannot buy on mainland USA. Also, she is friendly and helping. The views are not from earth. Plenty towels and supplies. The entry way is dirt road, only one lane and uphill in the valley. Requires good tires and powerful engine if carrying many people. Drive slow to be safe. The house is old; has no AC but fans are sufficient as the house is on hilltop and weather is cooler. There is a fruit stand very nearby that sells fruit that were made for angels.

Lovely spot with epic view of Waipio valley. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and the property managers are friendly and helpful. The listing says the beach is just a 10 minute drive away … and it’s true. But you’ll need 4WD and nerves of steal. It’s certainly worth it when you get to the beach.

Amazing home

This is an amazing home, with breathtaking views. The house is as advertised and more! Cemille and Derrick are amazing hosts who are available for whatever you need and truly fantastic people who love the beauty of this area. If you are looking for a place to stay that is quiet, secluded and an authentic Hawaii experience this is your place! The house itself is great for a good size family, we had 7 people and it was plenty of room. The outside shower was by far my favorite, an absolutely amazing way to start your day! Just a magical place. If you want a resort experience this is not the place for you, but if you want raw beauty and amazing accommodations this is the perfect place!

Cherry Blossom Festival Staycation

Beautiful views and home is appointed as described. There was severe weather resulting in our early departure due to a loss of electrical and plumbing. We were graciously reimbursed for the day we could not stay there. The 3k security deposit was required very early and held for the maximum 14 days after checkout, which I found annoying. The resident host is just lovely and did all she could to accommodate Mother Nature's wrath.

The Vacation of our Dreams

From the moment we were contacted by our host Cemille to be sure we were good on directions to the house, to the moment we said good-bye, everything was perfect. The slightly remote location is truly magical. Clean, comfortable, great kitchen with all you could need and more…and a grill! That worked! So often not the case. Meeting our host Cemille and learning a bit about her was a bonus. Such a joy to know her.But she is mindful and respectful of guest’s privacy. I only hope I spelled her name right! That view is one I will never forget. And the outdoor shower is something you just have to experience. It was truly hard to leave this special home. If you are wanting an off the beaten path, quiet and peaceful retreat, you should stay here. We loved everything about it. A short drive to Honokaa town that has lots to offer and all the aloha. And if you need a few more amenities Waimea is not far. Again, all you’d need and all the aloha. We continued our vacation on other parts of the island after leaving this house, and we both agree we should have just stayed there. We left a little piece of our hearts there and truly would like to come back some day. And it’s a perfect location for exploring the beauty of the Hamakua Coast. Thanks so much for this memorable stay.
