12-night stay in August
Overall, we had a great stay. House was clean, beds comfortable and kitchen well stocked with cooking utensils and dishes. There were some spices, and cooking oil in the pantry when we arrived, probably left by previous guests. Internet connection was great so we were able to watch Netflix and other streaming channels for which we had accounts for. The house is not air conditioned (which we were aware of) but with all the fans on and windows opened, the breeze flowing through the house made it okay most of the time. The only thing that was a negative was the ability to see the house number and driveway entrance as the grass around the post and entrance was overgrown. We learnt to watch for the road marker for mile 20.0 then looked for the stop sign on the right side of the road a little further down from the marker, to locate the driveway entrance to the house on the left, when coming from Hilo. All-in-all, a pleasant stay.

Favorite place
We loved this place so much! Thoughtful furnishings, a very nice house, but best of all is the location! We saw whales, stars, goats, wild pigs, sunrises, ships and barges, beautiful waves, and fruit trees. It was peaceful and quiet—away from all the people and bustle. But a quick trip to Hilo and other small towns with amenities. Perfect location to go to Volcanoes or just anywhere on the island.

Nice place
The house is exactly as shown in the photos with that gorgeous view out over the water. The house is well stocked so just pick up a few groceries. Things to be aware of before booking this unit. This is not the resort side of the island. It is quiet and very rural. Incredibly peaceful. It’s 20 miles down the coast to Hilo. There is a nice market 7 minutes or so up the coast in Papaaloa. The last thing is finding the driveway. It can be tricky as the speed limit is 55 on the road and the driveway is a small unmarked opening in the tall cane grass. There is a short stretch of guardrail on the opposite side of the road from the driveway that I used as a landmark night and day. Fortunately traffic is light on the road by the house.

Ninole Hamakua Retreat
The property was great in many ways. It had beautiful ocean view picture perfect scenery. Calm relaxing perfect spot tobgwt away from it all and just enjoy the peaceful natural side that the Big Island isbknow for. I was on Hawaii for over 5 weeks & stayed here for 4 of those weeks. It was for the most part but great there but few things that should be be addressed. First I the grass surrounding the house is very thick It is a combination of something planted but the invasive grass that is surrounding the lot in front & to the south of its have caused the large elephant to to spread there. You wouldn't notice as probably as just a tourist. I on the other hand own property on the island know that this grass can cause rashes & irritated most people. Make sure if laying out at the house to get a chill day at the house to spread a larger blanket & then a tall a most people will get some irritation from it. That's not the bad thing though when we would stay local at the house for several day we would lay out in the fro t of the water catchment tank just to the north east of the home. Great place to get a sun tan & normal there is a nice ocean breeze to make it Great spot to lounge have a picnic etc. The property owner should warn people that there are very deep wholes in the grass that the over grown elephant grass can hide. I unfortunately had to learn the hard way. With almost 2 weeks left on my trip I Was going to move one of the chair from the lower patio to the grass area to relax read a book & get some sun. I stepped into an almost 6- 8" deep whole & severely Sprained my ankle. Not fun when you have to go and get ankle brace at Walmart & where supportive shoe the entire rest of my trip. An elderly person could have been serious hurt. Next the screen on the home are the original ones that came with the windows I assume. They provide almost no protection against the small mosquito that can go through the wide mesh. Also many of them have been bent over the year probably to remove for cleaning this led to just open wholes. I don't like AC and would rather leave all the screen opening open all day and night to keep the home cool & breeze coming through. I noticed several prior guests took it upon them selfsame to tape sround the cracks in the screen to Limits the ammout of Mosquito. This did help much. Last thing was WiFi. It was not acceptable for a person working remotely I has to spend money to buy a hotspot so I could send & work emails. :)

Overall good place for large groups
Place was clean and easy to find. Location was good. About 25 minutes from Hilo. Communication with property manager was quick. The biggest negative about the property was no hot running water. There wasn’t anywhere on the listing as well preparing us for that. We felt that should be disclosed before booking! Also, the fire alarm had been removed and listing shows house is equipped with proper safety measures. We also didn’t like being asked to start load of laundry. It feels more unsanitary not knowing when they come to remove from washer and can you guarantee the previous guests did it properly. View was very pretty!

We had a great time!
The house was a wonderful place to stay. We used it mostly as a home base to come back to after spending the day traveling the island. If you spend more time at the house, it is definitely a quiet, peaceful setting that allows just sitting and enjoying the view, playing in the yard, or walking up the hill beyond. The house has everything you need. There is no AC, but it cooled quickly each night with the breeze when we returned. We live in a rural area, so we are used to driving. This location allows you to get most anywhere on the island in 1-2 hours and the scenery makes it very enjoyable. Hilo and Waimea grocery stores are about 20-30 minutes away. There are many scenic walks, state parks, and zipline tours nearby. Hawaii Zipline was very nice and just 10 minutes away. Our favorite food finds were Tex in Honoka'a (food and malasadas) , Kula Shave Ice in Hilo. Aloha Kayak Manta Ray snorkel was great- the group was small and personable with concern for the Mantas a priority for the owner. Hilo farmers market had amazing fruits and veggies, along with crafts Wednesday and Saturday. We had to take the garbage 1x as we cooked each day and had purchases with packaging. If you mostly eat out you likely won't have to bother. The transfer stations are very close and super easy to use-drive in and dump. Don't let the garbage removal stop you from enjoying this house. One word of caution- follow the arrival instructions and use Google maps to find the house. Google will get you right to the house. Apple maps will not.

Breathtaking Beauty
The location of this property (about 15-20 minutes from Hilo) can't be beat. It's quiet and the scenery and views are absolutely stunning. That said, there are a few things that aren't mentioned in the description of the listing that might have changed our minds about staying at the house. 1. The cleaning fee is ridiculously high (double to triple) in comparison to other VRBO homes that we have stayed at. Generally I wouldn't complain about this, but there were dirty dishes in the cabinets and you are expected to haul your own trash to a transfer station if you accumulate more than what can fit in the already undersized trash can on the property. You are also expected to start a load of towels before you leave and all dishes are supposed to be put away. The lint trap on the dryer was also full (I know it wasn't from us because there was dog hair with the lint and our dog was at home) Based on this, you don't seem to get much for the high fee. 2. The internet connection is via satellite due to the remote location. It is spotty at best and there is a data cap. Generally, this wasn't an issue for us because we weren't on vacation to use the internet. If you plan on working remotely, this might not be the best location for you. Cellular service is also hit and miss, so I'm not even sure a hotspot would be viable. 3. The dishwasher doesn't work very well. We ended up doing all of our dishes by hand. The property management company has "please conserve resources" info in the house, but this doesn't seem to apply to dishes. 4. Be prepared to buy all of your condiments, spices, etc Most of the Vrbo properties that we have stayed at least have the very basic from previous guests, but Turnkey informed us in our check out instructions that all items like that must either be taken with you or thrown away. Seems like a waste of resources. 5. There is no local guidebook on the property like at most Vrbo's. Everything is corporate feeling and impersonal. "Pick up brochures at the airport" is their advice. 6. The "pet friendly" part of the listing is deceiving. You can have pets on the property, but they aren't allowed in the house. This ended up not being a huge deal for us because we left our dog at home (the process for bringing a dog into HI is difficult), but just be aware. It's still a beautiful listing and amazing property and I would stay again.
