Paauhau Vacation Rentals

"The waterfall cottage, while rustic, had great amenities, like bathrobes, coffee etc. lots of places to sit and enjoy the setting."

"Staying at Rachel’s house was an absolute delight! The beautiful surroundings, stunning ocean views, and refreshing breezes made for a truly relaxing getaway. The home was incredibly comfortable and had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! 12 out of 10!!! Would absolutely recommend "

"We wanted to get away from the harsh Boston winter and thought of trying something different as it was our first visit to Big Island. This house did not disappoint, pictures in the listing did not do it justice. The house is beautiful! Clean and well stocked with every amenity you can imagine. The open plan living room/dining area is furnished with high end teak furniture, modern and clutter free. The kitchen looked like it was from a magazine. The expansive Lanai with ocean views stretched across the width of the house. Each of the end master bedrooms had french doors opening to the lanai, We slept with the doors open all night, lulled by the sound of ocean waves. It was the best nights’ sleep ever! We woke to the crows of roosters and the moos of cows. The pantry was well stocked with spices and basics, anything else needed was a short drive to Foodland in the next town of Waimea. We were happy that James, the host and caretaker was a text away. He lives in the unit below and whenever we needed anything he would appear with it. He is a delight to talk to, very knowledgeable about the area. We did day trips to Volcano Park, Waipio Valley, had a fancy dinner at Merriman’s, Hawaiian cowboy BBQ at Fish and Hog and malasadas at Tex-Drivein. The historic town of Honokaa is 10 minutes away, we loved the little museum. Farmers’ markets and Wednesdays and Saturdays are a must see. All in all the house is a way to experience true Hawaii. We are making plans to come back next winter."

"This property suits our needs perfectly. "

"This house was absolutely beautiful and in an amazing location. The host was very sweet. Would 100% stay again!"

"super clean and comfortable room and the facility is in a central location to everything we needed."

"Beautiful, quiet and the hosts are lovely, gracious people!"

"Spent 4 nights as a family of 4 during our spring break in March. Nice to have room to spreadout (teens each had a room and parents had the ohana room). We appreciated the games/reading material and a fully stocked kitchen (complete with spices to use!) Especially happy with the cooler weather (in 50s each morning and night) and the pheasants/turkey/peacocks that visited the yard. Beautiful view, very calming and quiet neighborhood. The hill provides quite the morning workout!"

"This property is very well loved and it shows in the work that has been put into it. I know from experience the hard work it takes to create and maintain grounds in a rainforest-like setting. A whimsical delight!"
