Oceanfront Hideaway: Watch Whales. Sleep to Waves!

Welcome to your ideal getaway at Oceanfront Hideaway, an oceanfront suite designed just for you, nestled conveniently between Hilo, Volcano National Park, and picturesque black sand beaches. Located only 30 minutes from Hilo International Airport and Rainbow Falls, this retreat is perfectly positioned for exploring the enchanting sights of Hawai'i.

This affordable haven enhances your Hawaiian experience with breathtaking views where you can spot whales (seasonal), dolphins, and sea turtles, all while enjoying the refreshing trade winds that are ever-present in this locale.

Your private studio features charming French doors leading directly to the oceanfront, situated on the lower level of a stunning home. Large windows along the east-facing wall invite the warm glow of sunrise right into your space—an incredible spectacle not to be missed! The extensive overhang from the upper level combined with the cooling trade winds ensures you'll stay comfortable throughout your visit.

If you're eager to discover the finest attractions on the Big Island, this suite offers a central location without the distractions of a busy tourist area. Enjoy the beauty of black sand beaches, the mystical Waa Waa jungle, the wonders of Volcano National Park, various waterfalls, and recent lava flows—all within reach!

Your comfort is guaranteed with a luxurious queen-size memory foam bed promising restful nights after days filled with adventure. For entertainment, a smart TV allows you to stream your favorite subscription services, or enjoy Netflix, which is included.

The unique bathroom design provides an indoor/outdoor ambiance, featuring bamboo walls and concrete floors in the shower and toilet area, complemented by gravel flooring at the hand sink and dressing area. To ensure comfort, we recommend wearing flip flops, lovingly referred to as "slippers" in Hawaii.

Your kitchenette is equipped with a full-sized fridge and freezer, microwave, coffee maker stocked with local Kona blend coffee, and basic dishware perfect for heating up takeout or preparing simple meals. Please note that there is no kitchen sink or stove available.

We invite you to experience this charming hideaway that promises a fantastic oceanfront stay! With a stellar five-star rating, we aim to make your experience exceptional, ensuring you’ll want to come back time and again.

Check-in is straightforward. Before you arrive, you will receive a lockbox code and detailed images to assist you with the process. Enjoy free, clearly marked parking during your stay. Have questions? We're here for you! Day or night, we pride ourselves on our swift response time averaging less than one minute.

Your privacy is paramount; however, we reside in the main home above so assistance is close by if needed. Please be aware that some apartment-style sounds may come from above, including the garage door opening and closing. Guests have full access to the private unit on the lower level alongside complimentary parking. If you're looking to access the rocky beach, there is a pathway located at the end of our dead-end street, just 100 feet away.

Our neighborhood is welcoming and vibrant; residents often stroll through in the mornings and evenings, taking in the fragrant trade winds. An oceanfront park is just a quarter-mile away—an excellent location for a picnic.

While public transportation options are available nearby, we recommend having a car for easier exploration of the area.

From the moment you step through the door, your privacy will be respected, while our presence above means we're here to help should you need anything. Welcome to your oceanfront escape!

Summary: This little place is just yards away from the waves crashing into the lava cliffs and the ocean breeze keeps the air moving. The living space was very clean and comfortable. It is unique accommodations as the toilet and shower are in a detached bath house. The neighborhood is very quiet and lovely. There are no services super close by, and the kitchenette is minimal, so beyond coffee and warm ups, do not plan to cook. Who wants to cook on vacation?!! We enjoyed our stay and recommend to the more adventurous travelers. Aloha!
