Kahikole, "Early Morning Sun" will excite you with it's amazing views and great location for exploring East Hawaii.

Comfortable elegance in a very private oceanfront setting awaits you at Kahikole. Enter through the lava rock wall and turtle festooned gate into your personal oasis. Designed in the round (actually 12-sided), the home provides beautiful ocean views from virtually every room.

The lower level includes two master suites, both of which offer their own en suite full bathrooms and all-around windows overlooking a spacious waterfront patio and lawn area. You can watch the surf from bed or from comfortable seating in each room. Both suites include walk in closets with generous built-in shelving.

One master bathroom includes an overhead rain shower head in its tiled walk in shower, while the other offers a combination shower/tub. A starter pack of basic amenities including soap, shampoo, conditioner, and sunscreen are provided. Full indoor laundry facilities are also found on the ground level.

Take the curving indoor/outdoor stairwell to the upper level for a 180 degree view of the ocean and surrounding points. Guests say it's difficult to ever leave the covered lanai with its comfortable seating and spectacular views.

From the lanai, enter your great room with living and dining areas, as well as a gourmet kitchen. A den and third full bath complete the second floor.

In addition to general television stations, you can check your email or watch Netflix from the Google TV or surf the internet on your own computer using the easily accessible WiFi. A Bose speaker system lets you project your own music from CD, iPhone or iPod. And, of course, the remarkable ocean views are all the entertainment many desire.

The fully equipped modern kitchen includes a Viking range, black granite counters, dishwasher, refrigerator with built-in ice maker, microwave, coffee maker, and all the cookware and tableware you need. Our spice drawer grows with each guest and includes most of the standards, along with some fun extras.

If you prefer Al fresco dining, a covered BBQ area and Oceanside table and chairs await on the ground level. While your meal is grilling, take a short stroll down the lava rock stairs to the bluff for an up close and personal view of the sea. Look closely as you could see whales, dolphins or sea turtles who frequent our bay.

If you are looking for more outdoor activity we have two bicycles for your use. Take a leisurely cruise along the coastal road and enjoy listening to waves crashing on the shore in this peaceful neighborhood.

We are centrally located on the windward side: 45 minutes from the Volcano National Park, 30 minutes from Hilo, and a short drive to shopping and restaurants. And, of course, we share all of our insider information about the best places to hike, snorkel, kayak, and otherwise enjoy the Big Island.

Year-round rate range is $125 - $295 per night, depending upon party size and dates of your visit. Cleaning fee is $150.

    a guest from BURLINGTON, ON recommends this vacation rental

    The descriptions and photos online are all surprisingly accurate. One item of note is that we did not feel we had 100% privacy and security as the property could still be accessed outside of the gates and the french doors are not covered. So enjoy the 6:30am sunrises (we did, fortunately)! At least the street was quiet and there are probably other vacation renters in the area, too. The kitchen has everything and the coffee table guidebooks were fantastic resources. Nitpicks: two umbrellas we found were broken, but maybe they were left by previous guests; watch out for fluff from the shedding towels; the washer is loud and needs to be properly cleaned/aired out to remove a lingering odor.

      Thank you for your review! And thanks for letting us know about the minor maintenance issues, we will definitely get those handled! Mahalo, Hawaii Holiday Management

    Suggestion: make sure the gate opens when you leave the property. Check the lock pad on the living room door; number 0 sticks very badly. With heavy rains, water comes into both bedrooms and the living room.

    Jeanne A recommends this vacation rental

    Our time at Kahikole was wonderful. We had lots of things planned to do, but the view of the ocean and the house itself was so fantastic that we threw most of those plans off the lanai, and spent our time resting and watching the sea instead. Time well spent! There was little else that we thought could that activity!
    The house was immaculate and well-appointed- the only thing it lacked were some labels on the kitchen drawers to let me know what was in them. Everything to cook a fantastic meal was there, and then some.
    We would definitely love to go back to this magical place again. I already miss my time there.

    a guest from Boulder, CO recommends this vacation rental

    This is the perfect vacation house if you want to get away from noise and traffic. It is very, very well appointed and equipped including a very well supplied kitchen, a wide assortment of good guide books, music, movies, TV, internet, a wonderful view (right on the ocean). The 3rd bedroom has only a Futon, so best if you need only 2 bedrooms. Convenient to Hilo and to Volcano Park. We used the grill for dinners. This area of the coast is rainy, so don't expect a lot of sun. The porch overlooking the ocean is perfect place to unwind and drink wine after a day of hiking the Volcanos.

    a guest from Kapaa, HI recommends this vacation rental

    This property was so easy to just kick back and relax. While it was a little out of the way, the drive was well worth it. Rooms were clean, kitchen well stocked and the view... WOW speechless! Love the double yurt set up and thoroughly enjoyed the deck and grill. Would love to have stayed a few more days. Weather held up just fine and the nights were cool. We felt safe and very comfortable. Thank you for your quick response to our requests and for allowing a late check out. This helped to make our vacation priceless. Mahalo!
