We had a very nice stay at Hale O Makani. Walking in the door it was immediately clear that the home is well taken care of and very clean. The kitchen was well equipped. The only drawback is that there is no dishwasher, which we did know ahead of time. There was no need for us to buy water, as the water from the tap tasted good.
The home felt very spacious. The primary bedroom was huge. I have to say that the bed was very comfortable. Normally, I find that beds in rental homes are very hard. This bed was just right. My daughter, who stayed in one of the other bedrooms, agrees.
The breezes cooled the house nicely. After being away during the day, the house was warm from being closed up, but in a matter of minutes, it cooled down because of the cross-breezes. The lack of air conditioning was not an issue.
The property was beautiful. It’s on a low traffic street, which was nice. I would definitely stay there again when visiting the Hilo area. Mahalo to the property managers, who were responsive to our questions.

The home was very nice and comfortable. The kitchen has everything needed to make family meals. Plenty of towels, etc. However, there are several outdoor security cameras that were not disclosed ahead of time. One of which was pointed directly at the back (otherwise private) patio. For those who value their privacy, Beware!
Manager response on 2021-07-13 - Response from Hawaii Life Real Estate Brokers
Aloha, We appreciate this feedback. We have made note on our site of the exterior cameras so all can be aware. Mahalo for staying with us, we look forward to hosting you again!

We enjoyed our stay at this house!! We went down for a funeral and had to book something last minute and quick. This house had everything we needed and felt very homey.
Me and my family stayed from 4/5-4/12/22. After I booked the house I had not read about all the cameras that were installed until scrolling through the description and comments but was to late. Im the type of person that likes my privacy but understand that the owner of the house is just being safe. If I knew about the cameras before, I would not haved booked at all to be honest. But If you dont mind cameras watching you then I recommend this place.

We're frequent VRBO guests in this area and the level of cleanliness at Hale O Makani exceeds anywhere else that we've stayed. Not that any of the others were not cleaned; just that this one was exceptional. This is a great location midway between Pahoa town and Keaau. We experienced no issues with Vog, sulphur smell or ash from the current eruptions at any time during our stay. The lovely back yard is indeed a tranquil bit of paradise and refuge from all the sound and fury of Kilauea's current activity.

We had a wonderful winter with Hale O Makani as our home base in 2017! We found the house very welcoming, clean, convenient and comfortable. We liked the layout with the 3 bedrooms, laundry room and large master bathroom. The location was perfect: a short drive up to the highway and only 10 minutes down to the cliffs. The property was lovely in the front but needs some attention in the back. Management, namely Jeana, was very pleasant and helpful. She saw quickly to some repairs that needed to be done and even saw that we got some lounge chairs for the back yard. That made a big difference for us as we were able to relax outside at home and read all our books on the history of the islands and listen to the birds. As we have been to the island many times before we didn't have to be sightseeing every day and loved to relax at the house. A couple of things that could be improved: the master bed was way too soft for us (the middle bed was great), the futon couch is uncomfortable to sit on, the swivel chair is tilted (probably a broken spring), a bigger Smart TV would be better in the livingroom, and the walkway and patio need sprucing up. These were all minor problems for us (except the master bed) and did not impact on our stay at Hale O Makani. Aloha and Mahalo Jeana and the Hawaii Life team.

The house was perfect. Super clean and all the amenities of home. Nice outside patio with a fabulous yard filled with gingers, gardenias, plumerias, avocados and even a very healthy pineapple plant.
The only issues (& they were minor, but worth noting) is they catch their own water so it was a bit smelly when we 1st got there (subsided as the pipes cleared out). It really isn't suitable to drink either and there was no mention of this and I only knew because I have relatives in the area so we were prepared and bought bottled water. I suggest they let their clients know so they can be ready for it. Wifi was a little patchy and AT&T service is almost non-existent. Last thing is there's no trash pickup so if your trash is full you need to take it to the nearby transfer station. Like I said these were minor. The house and yard are fabulous and I'd stay there again in a second. I loved the Coqui frogs and all the lizards.
Manager response on 2017-08-15 - Response from Hawaii Life Real Estate Brokers
Aloha! Thank you for your review and recommendation. In regards to the water, it is perfectly safe to drink, as it has a multiple-filter setup and even a UV system that cleans any contaminants from the water, and the system is serviced quarterly. The Welcome Binder does have instructions on where to take the rubbish as there is no trash pickup service here. Because of the remoteness of being on island, certain cell services can be spotty in some areas. Given all of these factors, we are glad you enjoyed your stay and we hope to see you again in the future!
