We had a fantastic week at the Aloha suite. Alan & Lori made you feel welcome on their property. Hawaii is a beautiful island and it’s definitely worth staying on the Eastside of the Island. Our overall stay was fantastic. The bed could’ve been a little more comfortable.
Maku’u Point
Onekahakaha Beach Park very beautiful big tide pools! We saw lots of whale’s there also.
Carved Sea turtle you get to look at every morning while you enjoy your coffee on the lanai.

Excellent Experience

The place was very clean, even had lawn chairs and beach towels. Allan even let us know where to go to view the Blue Moon while we were there. He gave us tips where to snorkel , shop for groceries and sent us info on how to get to Hilo the back roads, after school had started and the roads got busy in the mornings. He sent me places to grocery shop and get gas. Would stay again if the opportunity arises. Worked out great.

Awesome

This place is awesome. We got in late, and Alan still met us with the gate open and was very welcoming. Property has an ac, but we didn't need it because there's always a nice breeze. You can hear the ocean from the property at night. Alan has thought of the little things like the charging ports on both sides of the bed that have USB, USB C, and a normal outlet. Alan is responsive to all questions, and has plenty of local recommendations.

Birds and Breeze Are the Best

Quiet and breezy. There is a/c but we didn't need to run it and could hear the birds chirping most of the day. Plenty of room for two people with a standard sized refrigerator, king bed, good storage for clothes, etc. We stayed here a few years ago when it first became a rental, and the years and guests haven't been kind to the property. Everything is showing wear and tear. The lanai is private and gets a good breeze but the wicker furniture is starting to split in several places. Towels are scratchy and it would have been nice to have more than one a piece. The chain link gate has to be locked most of the time, using a combo and a key in the lock box. It is impossible to see the whole setup in the dark, even with the car's lights shining on the gate. I do not like to report negatively on a property because I know how hard most owners work to keep their places in good shape. I remember from our last visit the the owner was very attentive, so that is a plus.

This was perfect for our stay on the Big Island. We were able to see many different things and this was a great home base for us. Alan greeted us personally when we arrived and provided many great suggestions of places to visit while we were there. If we're visiting the area again, we will definitely book here!

awesome stay

Everything was great, we loved sitting out on the patio in the early morning drinking coffee and late at night stargazing. It was a short distance to bring the provided beach chairs to sit on the cliffs by the ocean. We had everything we needed. Alan was very helpful for check in. Overall, we had a great stay. I would recommend staying here for future visits.

Great place to stay with a great guy to help you out while you try to enjoy the island.

The property was in a quite and beautiful location with everything you'll need to either relax or get out and see the sites of the beautiful island with only a shot drive. Within a very short distance from a beautiful ocean and wonderful towns. The owners was responsive to my interests of the Island and provided me information and location of things to see. The place was secure and well kept. I enjoyed my stay and look forward to coming back.

It’s a pretty property in a residential area. It’s very quiet other than the coqui frogs, which aren’t intrusive or loud and adds to the charm. Theres a lot of little touching details and hosts were kind and accommodating. True to their listing, they’re available as much or as little as one needs. The listing is accurate with regard to local wildlife, but if you’re familiar with Hawai’i, just keep food cleaned up as explained in the rules. My favorite part of this location was the warm rain - while the hosts had no control over this, the driveway being rock allowed for a sedan to get out of the driveway. The binder has good information, and directions are clear from the host even when gps wasn’t.

Best welcome to the island!

Our host could not have been more accommodating and helpful upon our evening arrival. He greeted us personally as it was dark by the time we flew in. The house is clean, sweetly decorated and the patio is perfect for relaxing and listening to the night sounds. We awoke to find out that we were a short car ride away from so many beautiful ocean areas, such a great surprise! Wish we had stayed longer and would absolutely love to return. Thank You for the great vibes :)
