About this property
Kaloli Point retreat 3 blocks from the ocean and minutes to Shipman Beach trail!
Relax on the lanai while enjoying the beautiful palm trees and flowers; or cozy up in the living room to listen to the nearby waves, coqui frogs, and birds. Walk to the cliffs to watch the sunrise, dramatic waves, and beautiful night sky. The Haena (Shipman) Beach trailhead is 3 minutes away where you may encounter numerous Honu (sea turtles) sunbathing on the rocks! Our Kaloli Point retreat includes a lovely living space with a luxury sofa bed and adjoining nicely appointed queen bedroom. Enjoy the newly remodeled master bathroom with double vanity sinks and beautiful tile shower. A mini-fridge, coffee maker, and microwave are also provided for your convenience.
Nearby Pahoa Town offers shopping, restaurants and the famous Maku'u Market. Or drive into Hilo to enjoy historic downtown, the Hilo Market, waterfalls, swimming, snorkeling, shopping, and museums. Volcano National Park is also a short drive away. So much to explore on the east side of The Big Island of Hawaii!

Very cute and quiet stay! The unit is adorable and the area is gorgeous and green. Very walkable area with friendly people. Hope to stay again next time I am in town.
Super nice place at a very nice price. Gorgeous ocean cliffs close by. If you don't need a full kitchen, this is your place! Tara and Steve great hosts!
Had an amazing stay here! We felt like we were staying in a 5 start hotel with all the recent updates they did. Bed was comfy, kitchenette had everything we needed and they even left us ear plugs for the frogs at night HAHA I'm already planning to come back with my Mother later this spring! Thanks so much for a wonderful stay Tara!

Taras place was exactly as described, she is also very friendly and gave us helpful advices and suggestions. It was a beautiful location near many natural places to visit, including the beautiful lava cliffs, and an amazing hike along the Puna trail to turtle paradise. The room was clean, comfortable cozy, and well set up with so many thoughtful details. We enjoyed the morning quality coffee on the deck listening to the many birds and hanging out with the geckos! My girlfriend generally has a hard time sleeping but slept very well in the comfortable bed in the place. Next time we visit Hilo, we would stay there again and recommend it to anyone who is looking to stay south of Hilo in a peaceful area.
We planned this vacation with the intention of doing as little as possible and this little hideaway in HPP was perfect for doing just that. Tara was friendly and communicative and made sure we had everything we needed.
Aloha! So happy that we found this gem available - it’s very private and tucked away. It has a lovely outdoor seating area- nice sofa and TV area- nice spacious bedroom with closet, dresser and luggage racks- cozy kitchen nook with small fridge and microwave, coffee maker, dishes etc… bathroom and shower also very nice. All freshly decorated- it’s very clean and for me- very important- no overwhelming fragrance/Febreze scents! We will definitely stay here again when on this part of the BI. Tara is lovely and kind, we very much enjoyed our introduction and chat. You cannot go wrong staying here- it ’s everything I look for when booking a vacation stay. Mahalo!
Wonderful hosts and absolutely beautiful accommodations with a private patio.
The neighborhood is out in the country; you will hear frogs at night and birdsong at sunrise. It’s a short walk to cliffs overlooking the ocean and a 3 mile hike to a very secluded beach.
No stove but there is a microwave, mini-fridge, Keurig coffee maker and water dispenser.
It’s centrally located with a 30 minute drive to Hilo and a 45 minute drive to Volcanoes National Park.
Recommended !!!!!!
Summary: We had an excellent time and hope to return. Highly recommend!
Details:
Very well appointed, lots of sweet touches, beautifully curated.
Completely no smoking and no vaping location.
Separate side entrance to their home - private, a beautiful view of garden, Birdsong all the time, spectacular sunrises and easy walking to cliffs or hiking trails.
Clean with lots of creature comforts. The most comfortable pull-out bed I have ever experienced!
Important things to note:
No air conditioning – but multiple high-quality ceiling fans and very good airflow across all the windows.
No kitchen – we jerryrigged some snack prep, but it encouraged us to enjoy the many local farmers markets and restaurants.
No laundry onsite - another opportunity to go in town to the local laundromat and have new experiences.
It is a drive away from any commercial district or services - the advantage is no one comes down those roads unless they have reason to be there, making it easy to go take a leisurely walk and feel like you’re on the edge the world. Everyone gives a little wave to everyone else.
At night it is pitch dark and you can see a spectacular amount of stars. Driving back at night, the good news is that right across from their driveway is a little fruit stand and little library - an excellent marker!
Hosts are on site - we sometimes crossed paths in the driveway and they were extremely helpful and friendly.
They provided complimentary drinking water which was a huge advantage to reducing plastic waste, compared to having to buy water separately and lug it to the rental.
Goodies to be borrowed - boogie boards, beach chairs, food cooler! There is a hose on the side of the house to rinse off sand from the beach.
In summary, this space seemed created carefully and thoughtfully by people who love to travel and want to make sure their guests are well taken care of. I felt that with every subtle touch I noticed in the space, and warmth with which they welcomed us.
The fact that the hosts were kind, available and responsive only added to how great our experience was.
We can’t wait to come back! Please enjoy the Birdsong for us!
