Perfect Pacific Paradise

I cannot say enough good things about this property. Once you step onto the property, you cannot help but relax. With breathtaking views of the Pacific, rainbows morning and afternoon, picture perfect sunsets, and birds singing to you daily. We knew we’d be driving around the island to enter the water in different places, so we wanted a quiet house nestled in the hillside. It exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this house. The kitchen is well appointed and the pool/spa was a welcome respite from our daily drives around the island. I would not hesitate one bit to rent this property again. I’m already thinking of when I can get back....

Gorgeous Ocean Views

House is as shown in pictures. Everything we needed for our 5 weeks on the Big Island. Very spacious and comfortable. The pool and spa are actually larger than they look in pictures. Mahalo to Nick from Elite Property Management. Very responsive and helpful to work with! Sheryl Young

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent two weeks in this beautiful and quiet house. The house is located about 10 minutes from restaurant, grocery store. The view and the sunset from the lanai were stunning and we loved the peaceful atmosphere of the house. The jacuzzi and pool were so relaxing after a day exploring the island. And I have to add that Nick was so responsive and helpful before, during and after our stay. It was for us a perfect experience.
