House vacation rentals in Hilo Bay

Amazing house looked well taken care of. Well recommended for a peaceful stay.

We chose this property because of the close proximity to the ocean. There is no beach but you can definitely hear the waves crashing and it was very tropical. Besides the house next door, it is very private. Plenty of kitchen appliances, plateware, and silverware. The neighbors were friendly, including their dog. Overall, we had a great stay would definitely recommend this house if you are looking for peaceful, quiet time on the island.

This is a lovely quiet location close to Hilo and Volcano NP. We loved having the pool and the amenities of a well thought out home.

We had a wonderful time staying at this well appointed home across from the ocean. We spent a long weekend here with our three littles and found that the house really had something for everyone - we loved the super comfy bed in the master bedroom and our kids had a blast swimming in the pool (which was even a perfect temp!) Lovely to find a place that feels like a getaway but has things like food, groceries and sites still close by

Beautiful home and wonderful host. We had everything we needed or could ask for. Mari was a perfect host answering any questions, providing many local recommendations and even met us at checkin to show us her home. The view was magnificent, opening the doors in the morning and sipping on coffee on the deck watching the sun rise was my daily ritual. It was a nice surprise to have chairs and snorkeling equipment available to us. Grocery and Walmart minutes away for quick pickup items. The must see sights were just 10-20 minutes away. We visited the caves, snorkeling in the bay, national park and the gardens.

We have been to Hawaii 15 times and this was our favorite home to enjoy. Everything from the spacious, beautifully landscaped yard and comfy lanai (even with a fan!) down to the soft cotton sheets and towels was so enjoyable and made us feel so cared for and simply in paradise. I also appreciated the condiments in the fridge, coffee and soy sauce in the cupboard. It was lovely having Michelle across the street and we enjoyed some coconuts from the property. The ocean was a 5 minute walk and was spectacular. We will surely return. Thank you, Michelle! Aloha!

Incredible ocean views with direct access to the magnificent cliffs overlooking the crashing waves along the rocky coast. If you have young children, then stick with their heated pool and water toys in the garage or drive over to area beaches. House and its porches have wonderful ocean views and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. Kitchen has extensive cookware and plenty of space. Beach towels are provided in the pantry. Spectacular place that we recommend wholeheartedly.

We are very happy with our stay, and sad to leave it. This is a BIG rental (2000sf? 2500sf?) at a very fair price. For our family of 5, this was more than enough space and we probably could have fit another family in here with us. The place is in very good shape, clean, and has the just-right combination of amenities to comfortably enjoy the rainforest climate. That said, don’t book this place if what you want is an air-conditioned condo - there’s no A/C and the charm of this place is leaving every window open, listening to the rain (showers pass through every day, then clear blue skies), and being serenaded to bed by the sounds of the surf (just across the street) and peeping frogs. We also LOVED how quiet it is here (surf and frog sounds, not planes or road noise), but that does come at a cost - expect to drive about 15 miles to just about anything, including pretty heavy traffic once you leave the neighborhood on route 130. For us this was a fine trade and I’d recommend it 100%

We absolutely loved the house, Kat was fantastic to communicate, we would stay again.

The pictures of this house do not do it justice. The entire property is incredibly lush and tropical, we felt like we were on our own private island. I could have stayed at the house for our entire trip and would have been happy!

We came to Big Island to enjoy calm and recharge. Eliot's place offers just like that as his house is spacious and plenty of space between properties with peaceful surroundings. because the home sits in a large ground in suburb of Hilo. Downtown Pahoa is close so you can dine out and get shopping done easily if you want. Eliot is kind and smart owner to take care of home and our needs. He was always responsive and come back with a solution for our questions.

Suzy was very helpful and responded quickly. Her house was clean, organized and very homey. It was also very helpful to have a washer and dryer for our stay.

What a great place! The place had an ocean view and the yard was beautifully landscaped. The kitchen had everything a person could want, even spices except for cinnamon and nutmeg. The new shopping center in Pahoa is great, too. We especially liked the health food market in Pahoa. The prices were more reasonable than at the regular market and had wonderful staff! We will definitely stay again whwn we return in a couple of years!!

Beautiful place, looked just like the pictures! Peaceful and quiet, all the furnishings were beautiful and comfortable. They provided nice touches throughout to make you feel at home.

This place was totally awesome! It was so beautiful and peaceful! We slept so well! The house was well stocked with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. Denise and Brian are the best hosts, making sure we had everything we need. Itineraries were provided so we were never bored. We will definitely be back for a stay in the beautiful rainforest on the Big Island! 🏝️

We had an incredible stay in Volcano, Hawaiʻi! The home was cozy, clean, and surrounded by beautiful nature, making it the perfect peaceful retreat after a day of exploring Volcanoes National Park (which was just minutes away). The host was welcoming, responsive, and provided thoughtful touches throughout the home—everything from local guidebooks to fresh coffee. We especially loved sipping our morning coffee on the lanai while listening to the sounds of nature. If you’re looking for a serene, unique experience close to the park, this is the place. Highly recommend!

Great fit for our laid back group, a serene slice of heaven in Puna Palisades neighborhood. Karan communicated routinely with helpful information for outside visitors. Renters should be aware that check in process is different than AirBnB messages -- there is no code emailed, rather check in direct with owners. All good :-)

Wonderful home, very comfortable, had everything that we needed- including coffee (we forgot) and bandaids! Absolutely wonderful experience! Thank you!

This home welcomed us with open arms! We thoroughly enjoyed staying here! The accommodations were as described and the owners were very attentive to our needs. Highly recommended to stay at on your next visit to Hawai’i island! Mahalo nui!

Our family enjoyed our stay. It was like sleeping in a treehouse! Ocean views, beautiful sunrises, frogs singing at night, and so many stars. We had everything we needed and the hosts were very helpful with local tips. It was a magical stay!

Comfortable, clean, private. Enjoyed our 11 day stay. Highly recommend staying there.

Jonathan is an awesome host! Our stay had some hiccups but he was quick to respond and correct the issues that we encountered. We were grateful for his kindness and willingness to provide solutions. Our family loved the private location and peaceful surroundings and it was a quick 15 minute drive down the hill to Hilo town. We hope to stay here again!

The most incredible AirBnB stay we have ever had. T was very communicative and helpful throughout our entire stay. We have never felt such peace and security. Beautiful home with the friendliest cats, Franny and Smoothie! T designed and built additional parts of the home and we can see the love put into it. We enjoyed the croaking of the frogs at night, the cuddles from the kitties, the spaciousness of the house, and the convenience of the washer, dryer, and kitchen. We are definitely inspired to live more sustainably and had a great time checking out T's recommendations for us. Looking forward to another stay in the future.

We loved our stay at this well appointed vacation home. Private, secluded oasis within an easy 10minute drive of Hawaii Volcanos National Park. Volcano is a bit chillier than other parts of the island, so the gas heater was a welcome touch to warm us up each morning. Added bonuses: a pair of friendly cats greeted us every time we came and left the home and a resident family of pheasants roamed the yard throughout the day.
