INSIDE THE GATED OCEANFRONT COMMUNITY and set up on the hill overlooking Kapoho is a charming two-bedroom vacation rental cottage on a large private lot with ocean views over lava rock. The owners have done a beautiful job refurbishing this house. You enter through French doors complete with glass...view full description knobs to find high ceilings and an open floor plan. The floors and kitchen countertops are richly tiled and almost all furnishings are new. This light and airy home will lull you into a relaxed state as you watch the waves crash up on shore in the distance.
THE LIVING AREA IS A LARGE OPEN SPACE with window seats and lots of windows to let in the light. The home has two bedrooms and one bath. One bedroom is on the main floor, the other is up a spiral staircase in the loft with views out to the ocean. Both bedrooms have queen beds. The large bath has a shower and there is a washer and dryer for your use. High-speed Internet service is provided for your convenience.
KAPOHO HEIGHTS IS TUCKED AWAY in its own private space, but you are close to all the interesting snorkeling areas in Kapoho. This vacation rental has easy accessibility to Kapoho Bay and the ocean. Crystal-clear, geothermally heated tidal lagoons for swimming and snorkeling are within walking distance. The water is a mix of heated, fresh spring water and sea water, and the water temperature is usually a wonderfully comfortable 90 degrees.
A LARGE OUTDOOR LANAI is perfect for watching the sunrise or for relaxing at the end of the day. The yard has many exotic tropical plants and some fruit trees. The house offers the most privacy of any Kapoho vacation rental we know about. If you want to experience Kapoho but want your own private space, this is the place!
AHALANUI, ALSO KNOWN AS THE "HOT POND," is a 10-minute drive. Ahalanui is a popular oceanfront county park where you can safely swim (it has a lifeguard), picnic, and enjoy the beauty of the Puna Coast. The little town of Pahoa with shops and restaurants is about 15 minutes away, and Hilo is a 40-minute drive.

Love those tidepools!
A guest from Bellingham, WA recommends this
property.Stayed 7 days in
December, 2008Bad points first: the house had a few problems, such as a roof that leaked when it rained (and it rained a lot), and a very small,oddly-configured shower. The directions provided by the rental company were a little off but I figured it out eventually.
Good points: I liked the location very much. I wanted a rental that was private, removed from town, and had a nice yard. This fit the bill exactly. It was a 30 minute drive to see the lava flow, 20 minutes to the grocery store, 1 hour to Volcanoes NP, and the Kapoho tidepools were down the road. Hawaii Holiday staff were very, very nice and helpful when I made the reservation.
