"Spacious, well-appointed house that worked great for our group of 4. However, the instructions for checking in were received very late, despite my express request a few days earlier to have them texted to me a few days before. Our group was backpacking in a remote area of the island right before we arrived, so I asked they be texted the entry info for the house on Thurs before our Sun arrival. The check in info wasn't sent before I went into cell non-reception. It was extremely difficult and...

"Our second stay here. Love the backyard view and the proximity to the beach, as well as fans of Puako in general."

"This home was absolutely idea for our family of 10 (grandparents, parents, and grandchildren). Plenty of room for each family unit to have their own space. The kids (and adults) spent a lot of time in the infinity pool. The home was very well equipped and had everything that we needed to make our stay exceptional. The sunsets from the lanai were amazing! The beach was ideal for boogie boarding and Hapuna beach was a short 5 minute drive as well. Peter was one of the best hosts we have...

"This beautiful lodge is undoubtedly one of the best places to stay. It is spotless and has absolutely everything you need to make meals. It is rustic, yet modern, the best of both worlds. I'd stay here for morning coffee and the sunsets from the front porch alone."

"The cottage is nice, beautiful views, beautiful grounds to walk around in with fresh fruit to be enjoyed off the trees. The owners live next door and are absolutely lovely people with vast knowledge of the area and all the rare and unusual plants on the grounds. It is a very private area and lends to a very calm and relaxing stay."

"We enjoyed 4 nights in this condo. The condo was clean and neat, with lots of room for our 4 person group. The balcony had a great view of the water. It was a great base from which to explore the Waimea area and the Northwest coast. It was driving, not walking, distance to restaurants and other touristy activities. The Managers were very good and helpful and friendly."

"5 stars is not enough! We walked into a clean and beautiful home to the sweet sounds of Hawaiian music. And then we saw the view!!! We watched whales for days from the lanai. We enjoyed finding a variety of dining experiences in Kawaihae. Don’t skip the art gallery located in the lower level of the marketplace. Waimea was perfect for grocery shopping. We went to a farmers market there on Saturday morning and it did not disappoint! Fresh caught fish, yummy bacon, garden fresh fruits and...

"This was our 15th FLW rental, and it certainly did not disappoint. We enjoyed the remote feel of the location, while we also appreciated that it was within easy driving distance of everything we wanted to do. We also appreciated how well appointed the kitchen was—making it easy for us to cook dinner at “home” every day. We had plenty of space, and enjoyed evenings in the hot tub. We highly recommend this property and hope to be able to return one day."

"A great place to stay, in the drier section of the island, with a great host."

"Great views - pretty much 360 degrees. We had everything we needed for our trip of exploring the western half of Hawaii island. A 10 minute drive down to the ocean resorts and a 10 minute drive up the mountain to Waimea/Kamuela. Great sunsets!!"

"We celebrated my 70th birthday with our 4 daughters, sons-in-law, and 18 month old granddaughter. House was perfect for this. Casita-like, in-suite bedrooms provided privacy for everyone. Kitchen accommodated many cooks, the TV den was incredibly comfortable, and the pool was lovely. Sunsets were out of this world! We enjoyed all the Mauna Kea Resort amenities. It was perfect. One suggestion - and I may have missed this - listing should mention baby equipment on site; we ended up renting items...

"The property is absolutely stunning and exceeded our expectations. The property management company was very responsive and went above and beyond to make sure we had a comfortable stay. There were mosquitoes when we went there because of heavy rains the week before. We requested to have the house sprayed, and that solved the problem. We are absolutely coming back next year and will probably stay longer next time. We highly recommend that you opt in for the resort amenities. If you stay here, you...

"The house was extremely comfortable with particularly cute, beachy finishes and tons of great furniture for lounging and relaxing. It is on one of the nicer “beach” areas of Puako and has its own sand. We would definitely go again."

"This place was wonderful for our 3-generation family group of 16! Plenty of space for everyone, comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchens, very clean, amazing pool and hot tub, plenty of towels, and SO many extras we didn’t even know about (bikes, scooters, lots of big coolers, TONS of beach gear). Really can’t say enough good things. Our host was super responsive and helpful. When we discovered our blender didn’t work, she had a brand new replacement for us within hours! Oh, and the views were...

"We had a super great time and the sunset view on the lanai was perfect! Thank you for an awesome stay!"

"Six women - grandmother, 2 daughters. three 30-something granddaughters spent a week in this spacious open-to- the-world house. Walk out from first floor bedroom onto deck of infinity pool, edge often lined with colorful birds drinking and bathing. Better still, down 8 steps, across a patch of grass onto beach and into the sea, home to local turtles. No problem here for 90 year old with bad knees. Four big bedrooms, tv room makes adequate bedroom for kids or adult who wants to be outside all day...

"We loved our time here. The house is spacious, clean, quiet and private. We loved having our own pool. The neighborhood is very quiet. The kitchen has everything you need. The house is very clean and comfortable. We will be back"

"This villa was perfect for our group, providing plenty of space for our two families. The views from the lanai were amazing, the house was stocked with everything we could possibly need, and it was in a great location that allowed us to easily access both the Mauna Kea and Westin Resorts. We did not want to leave and would love to come back someday! What a gorgeous house and beautiful location! Amazing!"

"The property reminded us of a vacation home my family just sold that was decorated with family keepsakes and newer furniture and artwork. It was comfortable for 5 adults, although the living room was crowded when we were all in it. Having the bonus bedroom/multi-purpose family room was a plus. The fourth-floor view of the shoreline and ocean from the balcony and 2 bedrooms was beautiful. The sound of the ocean was perfect. The condo is not air-conditioned, which concerned us because the...

"We loved the lanai with pool and hot tub! We spent most of our time outside enjoying the weather and watching all the whales! You are not close to a lot of things so if you don’t like driving a lot this could be an issue but for us the view made up for that. We’d definitely stay here again!"
