We had such a great stay just outside of Hilo on the Big Hawai‘i Island. There’s so much to see & do in the area, even in a short amount of time, so the location was perfect. It felt tucked away & peaceful, but still super convenient to swing into town for groceries or other conveniences.The house itself was exactly what we needed. Cute, clean, & private, which made it easy to relax after a long day of exploring. Our host was incredibly friendly & responsive when needed, which we really appreciated.We did end up having to cut our trip a day short, but he handled it so quickly & kindly with a refund, which says a lot. We would absolutely stay here again & will definitely keep this place in mind for our next trip to Hilo!

Derrick was kind, welcoming, super helpful and available when needed. His home was immaculate, and perfect for our family vacation to the big island. We would absolutely come again, and would highly recommend this beautiful home.While there, I would recommend a trip to Pahoa for Pele’s Cafe and the Poke Cafe. Thanks for the amazing hospitality.

This property was great for our stay on the Hilo side of the island. It was clean and well stocked. The host was great and responded to any question we had, before or after arrival. With 2 teenage girls on the trip, it was nice to have 3 bedrooms. We will definitely consider staying again if/when we get to come back.

Perfect location

If you want to experience real Hawaii but still be close enough to some tourist eats, etc this is a great location. Close to Hilo and Pahoa but you’re definitely snuck away in a true residential space. Would book again!

Shopping during the Merrie Monarch week

The 3 bedroom rental was perfect for us three ladies and the distance from the airport to the host rental is similar to my home island of Kauai, from my house to the main town of Lihue.I would recommend my friends if they are looking for a place during the week of the Merrie Monarch festivities, they should look into this rental property listed on VRBO.

About the host

Hosted by Derrick Jones

Host profile image
I have traveled to numerous places in the world. One thing that I always look for is, will I want to ever return. Not only will you want to return, you may not want to leave. My wife and I have a large family. We personally stay at this property when ever the opportunity allows. The island offers continuous hospitality. The locals are genuinely appreciative of you. You will see a constant accepted greeting, followed by the word Aloha. We believe that the people show more than the love that is given

Why they chose this property

The reason we are so in LOVE with this property, you only have to enter the land. The Little Yellow House screams escape to paradise. The land is over an acre of natural vegetation. You will actually see Pineapple, Coconuts, Avocados, Oranges and more. This is all on the property. You will see a variety of brilliantly colored birds flying all over the property. The are no natural predator's. You will see the ever present gecko. This property will be forever a place of incredible family memories. Hopefully for you as it is for us.

What makes this property unique

There are so many unique benefits provided by this property. The most important is that you conveniently located next to everything. You are centrally located. You can drive only minutes and you are able to see live sea turtles (really) or breathtaking sunsets. You can drive to the enchanting town of Hilo in minutes. The volcanoes are a 45 minute drive away from the house. If you continue on the same path you will arrive in Kona. There is always something to appreciate on the island. If this is your first visit, the Paradise house will only raise your expectations for the rest of Hawaii. Aloha
