Vacation rentals with lake access in Hawaii County

The home was so beautiful and peaceful! The view from the Lanai is unforgettable! We watched the sunset every morning and the stars every night. The AC in the rooms was amazing after a hot day on the beach. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our Hawai’i adventure!

Large beautiful house that looks exactly like the pictures. Great space for 6 adults. The company was very friendly, responsive, proactive and helpful. I was impressed with them. Fantastic place if you just want to get away somewhere private. The porch and widow’s watch were fantastic. But be advised there are no shades on the windows, no AC and loud roosters that get started waking up the neighborhood around 5am. So plan to get up early since you won’t have a choice. You’ll need to get out early anyway since this area is pretty far out of the way and it’s a 30-60 minute drive to tourist activities.

We enjoyed our stay at Hawaii Life Rentals! Downtown Hilo was a short drive away and the place was quiet and peaceful. The 6 of us were comfortable in this rental and we also cooked a couple of meals during our stay here. Would recommend this place for families visiting Big Island

We absolutely loved staying here. Lots of wonderful, thoughtful touches to make our stay relaxing and memorable. After staying in Maui for two weeks, it was perfect to get a true island experience on the green lush Big Island. We were so sad to leave, the home was so comfortable and perfect for a family vacation.

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy and well-appointed home! The highlight was undoubtedly the stunning tropical ocean view—we even spotted whales and dolphins right from the deck! The location is fantastic, just a short walk to a breathtaking black sand beach (clothing-optional), though swimming is best for strong swimmers. The home is comfortable and has everything needed for a relaxing stay. As expected in the tropics, the environment can be a bit tough on materials, but that’s just part of the charm of being in such a beautiful, natural setting. The host communicated really well and has done a great job keeping the space welcoming and well-equipped. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway immersed in nature, this is a fantastic spot. We would absolutely stay again!

Quiet and peaceful location.

Like being in a dream. The waterfall was magnificent, really fantastic land, so much fun to be there with my small group of people. The fact that all the services of Hilo are an easy 10 minutes away is amazing, too. It's a true find.

This was a beautiful peaceful place and the outside sitting areas were the biggest plus to have. We sat out every night in the tower. Heidi our host was very responsive and we communicated well. We liked having multiple living areas as we are around 70 and there were 2 couples and a single. The pictures were representative however the sofas are starting to show their age as they have been well used because they are so comfy. Since we are older the foam mattresses on the beds were a little too soft for us but would be fine for someone younger. This was probably the most well stocked house I have stayed in ever. Lots of bed pillows and towels, laundry detergent supplied, even baggies in the kitchen. No need to bring toiletries nor buy toilet paper because they only give you one roll and they also supplied wipes to use for wiping down counters! There is room for 2 care or small suvs. However anything large like a minivan or full size SUV would be difficult to park .

Great place to stay with family

Great stay! Yoko and Rocco have thought of everything, from a full body mirror, clothing line for wet clothes after the beach, filtered water and a big bonus was the beach chairs, coolers and boogie boards for use. It really felt like home. Thanks for a great stay on the big island.

Perfect place for our family vacation. Like that there were two full bathrooms. Building felt safe and secure. Perfect location.

Yan Ming was a wonderful host! Whenever I had questions, she was quick to respond. The airbnb was incredibly comfortable and had extra essential items to keep your stay comfortable. We did not use the extra amenities (i.e. pool or washer/dryer) but that was a nice addition as well. I would highly recommend this airbnb!

We had an amazing stay. My son was really interested in fishing and was able to fish right out front while I cooked and got ready to go sightseeing. It was close to everything we had planned to do. We love the market and downtown. The park and beaches were super close too.

Wonderful place. Check in was a little confusing as I had not understood that you cannot park at Ocean Towers but also do not need to check in at the main lobby at Hilton. However, everyone was very helpful. The apartment was updated and very welcoming. Great bed and great bathroom. Amazing views from the Lanai and for the most part of the day not in direct sun which is perfect to just hang out and watch the whales.
