This absolute Ocean Front Home it is not situated on a sea cliff but is just a few feet above sea level on sheltered PaPa Bay. Because of this lots unique topography and elevation you are just above the water line and a few steps from walking to the water. Additionally a minute walk away is a public access point in the Bay which the neighbourhood uses to safely go into the water. Please refer to our pictures for a better appreciation of our location on the Ocean. Aside from the superb ocean location and access this house affords, it is a fairly new concrete home designed to meet and surpass all the latest safety and building codes. It is a 2 Bedroom home with the Master Bedroom having an oversized King sized California Bed. This room has a 12 foot wide glass sliding door directly facing the Ocean. The second bedroom has a queen bed. This 2nd bedroom room has a large 6 foot by 4 foot window for views of the Ocean also. In addition it has another 6 foot x 2 foot window for mountain views. The house has 7 separate sliding glass doors which capitalize on it's stunning ocean views. Appliances are all brand new.. The cabinets in the kitchen were custom designed and built for the home. Finally the best way to describe our home is to simply let our previous guests who have stayed there do it for us. It has been almost 7 years since we built the home brand new and have we have been renting it. We have had numerous guests over the years and everyone so far has been very happy with the home and our communications and tips that we give them. This has made Mindy and I very happy knowing that when we set out on building our dream to make a perfect vacation home , it has been realized based due to the happiness and satisfaction of our past guests.

Wonderful experience
We were looking for someplace away from the crowds that was peaceful and quiet and that’s exactly what we found at this property. On the water edge with access to snorkeling just down the road. Neighborhood is exceptionally quiet, which was wonderful. The host was easily accessible and provided plenty even information about the house and the area.

Beautiful views. Saw some whales!
Property was very nice. We saw whales in the bay. Sunsets were phenomenal. Drive in was a little crazy, but once there, it was beautiful. We were out most of the day, so it wasn't a big deal, but there was active construction going on next door during our visit. Also, the mosquitoes were no joke. Strongly recommend bringing both spray and candles if you plan on eating outside.

Dream Home
Upon entering the property, you're met with the open spaciosness of the house, sliding glass windows on just about every wall to let you enjoy the immense beauty of the ocean surroundings. Large modern kitchen with everything you would need - The California king was so very comfortable, slept in complete bliss every night - This was our 4th time in Miloli'i, so the road down for is just like many other roads on the Big Island, windy - Dan the owner was extremely courteous and being just down the road, we knew we had someone we could count on, if needed - As far as we are concerned, if Dan and Mindy are renting, we'll be coming every year!

My family had a wonderful visit, and we enjoyed the privacy of this location. Every morning and evening we sat on the porch and looked for whales. Dan, the property owner, was very responsive and gave helpful recommendations for activities and places to visit. The house had everything we needed, and check in and out was very easy!! We plan to stay here again on our next visit to the Big Island!

The house has amazing views from the living and dining room spaces. Perfect for small families or a pair of couples looking to explore the big island. Be aware the location is a decent drive from both Kona and Hilo, so plan your shopping trips accordingly.

soothing waves
We had been in a VRBO two houses down - 9 yrs ago so knew all about the area - no surprizes except the new housing . Loved watching the waves and going to sleep with doors open and waves crashing in. Away from the city and quiet nights is what we want. Adequet internet and TV for those few lazy days. Place is spacious comfortable and clean. What else does anyone need? The skinny dipping teenagers a couple houses down one afternoon were a bonus. Kona is an hour way on a winding road, but that was well known to us and is not a problem as we dont care to visit the city we went the other direction mostly and visited the wilds.

Loved Every Minute!!
First of all…we can’t say enough about the property’s owners. They are down to earth people who made us feel so much at home. They gave us tips on places to go and things to do. If we needed anything or had any questions they immediately responded. The house is very comfortable and homey but the view is absolutely breathtaking. If you are looking for a place to relax or a base to come and go from, we promise you will not be disappointed!! We didn’t want to leave and even though this was a bucket list vacation, we will probably go back!

Great family vacation
We enjoyed our stay at the oceanfront house. The ocean view was amazing. The house was clean and fully stocked. The beds were very comfortable. The location was great. We found a great snorkeling area in the nearby Honomalino beach. We had the entire beach to ourselves. We enjoyed our morning hikes to the lava rock field at the end of the street. The star gazing was amazing. During our stay, it was very hot and humid. The fans and windows were inadequate to cool down the house at night. We wished the house had covered patios in the back to enjoy the house in the afternoon. Overall we enjoyed our peaceful stay and recommended this home to our friends.

Cute little place away from everything
Great spot….beautiful ocean view. Has everything you’ll need. Although it states they have things like shampoos and body soap. There was none…except for what maybe someone accidentally left from previous stay. Hosts are incredibly nice….communication with them is awesome. We ran out of a couple things and they got it to us super fast! Just an important fyi to anyone wanting to travel a bunch into Kona and such. This cute and quiet place is an hour away. And the road down to this really cute neighborhood and place is extremely winding…and at times nerve wracking…..especially in the dark. If you don’t mind the drive…this place is a sweet gem! And….the sunsets are out of this world!!

Great Living Experience south of Captain Cook, Hawaii
This is where you want to go to escape from the hotel zone tourist traps. No time share presentations! Dan and Mindy are the perfect hosts. Thank you Mindy for that wonderful brunch talking story about life on the Big Island in this very special niche community. You'll be in a 2-bdrm home with full kitchen and a view of the stars from the sliding ocean-facing bedroom doors to kill for. It's life on the rocks (lava rocks). And large sliding doors throughout the home to showcase the lava shelf meeting the ocean. Great snorking off of a quaint dock about a block away. You'll experience the rural life of the modern day islander living at the base of a volcano. (But the technology is there too - high speed internet connection providing seamless video streaming if you bring your own device.) Be prepared for the thrill of an 11-minute drive down a winding mountain road to arrive. Not for the faint-hearted - but the road is paved and well-maintained, unlike some other roads like this in Hawaii. No need for a 4-wheeler. And part of the overall experience. Great beaches within 20-30 minutes drive once up on the highway. However - expect to encounter the full-on nature experience - which included the occasion buggy or tiny mosquito that inhabit the laval rocks surrounding all the homes in this type of setting. Not the Four Seasons. But definitely for the one who chooses to experience the road less travelled.

Oceanfront retreat
Was a great choice for our stay in Hawaii! The oceanfront views were a spectacular way to start and end our days, soaking in the beauty of the morning sunrise and the amazing sunsets right over the water. The home was very spacious and well cared for. With no shade and no AC there were times it got rather warm, however we used this time to explore and enjoy the island. Dan is great, he provided a lot of information that was helpful during our stay; both in regards to the house and around the island. With a just a short walk we were able to access the ocean for some morning snorkeling; the access however, even with the steps, can be a bit tricky as the steps can be slick and the waves crashing in. Overall it’s an excellent home and would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful time staying at this house. If you are looking for a lovely house with an amazing view and away from the hustle of the tourist areas, then this is where you want to be. This is exactly what we were looking for! Every night we viewed fantastic sunsets. We didn't eat at a restaurant for dinner the entire time because it was so incredible to be there! The home was comfortable, nicely furnished, well equipped and in good condition. Because you're in a rather remote area, you need to watch water consumption, so you have to be willing to deal with this and not have a dishwasher. To us, it was totally worth it. Dan was a great host. He made great recommendations to us once he knew that we were interested in great snorkeling beaches. Of course we also went to Volcano National Park and visited Pahoa where the last eruption took place. While we were there, there was a threat of a tropical storm predicted to hit the Big Island. Dan spent a lot of time reassuring us that storms don't hit that part of the island but still made the necessary preparations. He came over to the house to talk to us and then kept us updated through text. He was right, we did not get a drop of rain! The storm veered south, though the Hilo side of the island did get some impact. We also met so many nice neighbors. We felt very comfortable there and would take a walk every morning. Thank you Dan for your hospitality and opening your home to us. Regards, Shelley and Gil

Coming from the Chicagoland area, I could not have asked for a more peaceful, paradise vacation! Don’t get me wrong, we explored literally all around the big island, immersing ourselves in all it had to offer. But to wake up and fall asleep to the sights and sounds that Dan’s home had to offer though, well that’s just what the doctor ordered (recharge, reset, rebalance, etc) and it really made the vacation! The house was spacious, clean, breezy (the ocean…LOVE), and had everything we needed! The night sky is incredible! We also witnessed rainbows over the ocean multiple times! The neighborhood itself was very quiet. I’m not a fan of some of the roads we experienced on the island, but that’s just me and my nerves…LOL. Dan is an awesome guy with a lot of knowledge and great recommendations, and is easy to get ahold of if needed

Perfect getaway, away from it all
This is a unbelievable property about 40 feet from the cost of the ocean. It's located about an hour away from touristy Kona about an 1.5 hours from the Volcanoes. This is the place you want to be if you want to sit and listen to the ocean under the bright blue sky or the vibrant stars with no distractions. Sleeping with the ocean right outside your door makes for a wonderful nature soundtrack. The drive from the highway is very winding so beware if you get carsick. Overall our stay was beyond words & we would definitely recommend to friends.

The property was perfect. Spacious, clean and amazing front water views. The property is a bit close to water for small children but I had my kids run around mainly without shoes and they did not dare to step on the rocks! There is an awesome paved patio the kids enjoyed time on and of course inside the residence running back and forth! Only tiny complaint would be the drive down and up the main street to get there. It’s a good 10 minute drive of steep turns and curves but totally worth the views. Thank you for having us!
