About this property

Zuki House - 3BR, 2BA Ocean Close, Hot Tub

Zuki House is a modern and elegant vacation rental close to the ocean. Enjoy our ocean view balcony upstairs outside the main bedroom suite. Our high ceilings and bright, modern furnishings give you comfort and style to enjoy throughout your stay. Experience the inspiring nature of Hawaii Island including volcanoes, dashing waterfalls, colorful botanical gardens and lush jungles. Enjoy local restaurants from a variety of cultures including 'local' comfort food, Thai, Japanese (sushi), Chinese, Vietnamese and so much more.

Zuki House occupancy is 5 guests. We have three bedrooms, one with a king bed, one with a queen bed, and one with a full bed. There are two full bathrooms. One bedroom and bathroom is upstairs in the loft with a balcony lanai with ocean views. On the main floor are the other two bedrooms, full bathroom, kitchen, dining area, living room and covered wrap around lanai. Enjoy the ocean sound and breezes from the outside. The yard is nicely manicured and our hot tub is perfect for star gazing at night. There's a nice outdoor shower too.

Located in Pahoa on the east side of Hawaii Island, Zuki House is close to the newest black sand beach on the island, created by the 2018 lava flows. Pohoiki is an amazing site to drive to through cooled lava fields about a 30 minute drive from Zuki House. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is about a 45 minute drive and the Pahoa Lava Museum is about a 10 minute drive.

Book with confidence—this is a licensed, legal vacation rental managed by professionals with decades of local experience. Always double check that you are booking a place that is operating legally in Hawaii - no surprises, just aloha!

Beautiful place with unique experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: Our stay ended up being during the historic Kona low. The house is beautiful and well maintained. We lost power for the trip, so our experience was very different. With that being said, the communication and support was top notch.

Overall it was a nice stay. The pictures are a little deceiving as the neighbors are VERY close and the property has a lot of big windows. The pictures make it seem more private than it actually is. The late checkout was much appreciated and I’m sure the hot tub was nice, we didn’t actually end up using it

Mahalo for your review! We are going to review all the photos and try to figure out what could be causing the impression that there are no neighbors. The photos were taken recently and nothing has changed since then. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention!

Perfect Stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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 had an amazing stay at this beautiful vacation home in Pahoa. The property was peaceful and quiet—exactly the relaxing vibe we were looking for. The home itself was spotless, comfortable, and surrounded by immaculate landscaping that made the whole setting feel like a private tropical retreat.The hot tub was a huge bonus and quickly became one of our favorite parts of the stay—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.The location was great as well, with easy access to both Hilo and Kona while still feeling secluded and restful. After long days of adventuring, it was wonderful to return to such a serene and welcoming space.Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a calm, comfortable, and rejuvenating getaway on the Big Island. We would absolutely stay here again!
