Fantastic Stay

My husband and I stayed with our 3 adult kids. We had a wonderful stay! A tremendous assortment of bedrooms from which to choose, so we all could spread out. The views were amazing! Only word of caution is know there are wild pigs in the area. The pool, water slide, and hot tub were wonderful. The singing frogs at night were amazing. We loved the rain pitter pattering on the roof. The kids fixed wonderful meals in the kitchen. Lots of games to play. The property is expansive. Even the driveway is amazing. We highly recommend!

Perfect Hawaiian Getaway with Stunning Views and Private Pool

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful house in Hawaii. The property was spotless, beautifully furnished, and truly felt like a home away from home. The private pool was a standout feature—ideal for refreshing morning swims and tranquil afternoons. Surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, it provided a peaceful and private oasis. The house was incredibly spacious, with cozy bedrooms, a well-equipped kitchen, and thoughtful details that added to our comfort. Best of all, the actual views exceeded our expectations—they’re even more breathtaking than the photos suggest. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to relax and recharge. Highly recommend this hidden gem to anyone looking for a perfect Hawaiian retreat!

Pure Magic

Our stay was absolutely perfect. Noelani thought of everything and was always available. The home had everything we needed. The view is incredible. The yard, the pool, slide, hot tub… We rode horses for a couple of days at Kahua Ranch, traveled mauka to makai on UTVs, and chilled at the house the rest of the time. We loved the birds, the frogs, and the mongoose. It was an excellent visit and we will definitely be booking Waipio Heaven again.

Awesome house and view

This is our second stay here (last one was in 2014), having fallen in love with the house and view the first time. The house remains beautiful and well-kept, the view is still extraordinary, and Victoria was excellent at communicating with us (she went out of her way a couple of times to make sure we were happy). We spent nearly the entire stay at the house enjoying the pool and the view and enjoyed every minute of it.

Amazing place for any group

The house and location are just as beautiful as presented, and the manager was very communicative and helpful and went out of her way to help us get the most out of our time there. Close to a cool little town but remote enough that you feel like you have the island to yourself when you’re in the yard. We watched dolphins leaping along the shore from the deck (high up but could still see them) and the walk to the beautiful beach and back up is not so bad if you’re reasonably fit!

Best place I have ever stayed

We are a well traveled family and all agreed that this home was the nicest and best view we have ever had. Fully stocked kitchen, GORGEOUS views, mater suite that is amazing with and outdoor shower - all highlights for us. I don’t think words can express how much we enjoyed this home. We had many family dinners, played games and also did a fair amount of exploring. We did yoga cliff side, massage on the lower deck and truly soaked up the views. Thank you for an incredible week!!

Family Vacation

My family of 10 stayed at this property for 5 nights. It was the perfect place for us to reconnect and have fun! The house is everything you could want and more! It is absolutely gorgeous and CLEAN! I tried to find dust and couldn’t, lol 😆. The only negative thing I can say is that 3 of the bedrooms don’t have window coverings. There was no privacy for the people staying in them. Also, no way to block out the sunlight. Thankfully, my daughter brought blackout curtains that suction cup to the window so her toddler could sleep. But, we would absolutely stay here again. This house (and pool) is magical!

One of a kind

This property was one of a kind. The views, the layout, the pool, the trees and flowers. Everything was in order and complete for our family’s week long stay. The home helped us all relax and rekindle our relationships. We could home-base out for journeys to any part of the island. A few days we just stayed and played. Highly recommend the home. Noelani and staff were great help and responsive. Recommend loading up at Costco. The separate refrigerator and freezer will hold enough for 8 for a week. Two dishwashers! Words will not state the beauty and serenity of this place. Aloha

Once in a lifetime

This house was truly spectacular. We had small children and adults. You wake up with spectacular ocean views, with whales jumping in the distance. The kids practically lived in the pool and they thought the secret room was so cool, that they all piled in the bed to sleep there at night. I can’t even describe the amazing vibe this house has. It’s was a privilege to stay there. The only reason I gave it 4 stars, was because the were some issues with fixing things. The fans in the pool house broke and it got hard to sleep on the hot days. They were unable to fix it. The house was truly amazing though!

Perfect for a big family

Our group of 10 (ages 7-60) absolutely loved this house. You cannot beat the view, the sunrises, the pool, or all the extras the house had to offer. First, the kitchen, the double dishwashers were amazing for our big group. The kitchen had every pot, pan, utensil & appliance we needed. It was well stocked with condiments of every variety, oils for cooking and every spice & seasoning you’ll need. The coffee station was greatly setup as well with k-cups, and grounds. Then there was both the indoor & outdoor tables we could all enjoy the meal at. 10/10 The pool was incredible- the water slide, zero entry pool, water toys, hot tub, and all the places to sit around and enjoy watching people swim. 10/10 The outdoor accommodations were amazing- tons of lounging space, outdoor games, outdoor fans, soft lighting for evenings, it was literally perfect. 10/10 The beds were similar to what you’d get at a hotel- they aren’t your bed at home, but they work. The bedrooms were well stocked with towels, wash clothes, extra blankets and the flashlights on each night stand were a great touch. 8/10 The property is located in a lovely part of the island if you don’t want to be on top of other tourists or crowded- which is exactly what we were going for. It’s about an 1 hour drive to Kona or Hilo but everything on the island is a bit of a drive so this didn’t bother us. 10+/10 Overall the stay was everything we could’ve asked for. Enough space to have alone time, but plenty of amazing ways to be together at the house as well.

Tropical paradise...wow!

Upon arrival, Noelani had lit candles and left Hawaii music playing which felt like we were walking into a magical paradise. The stunning cliff view was visible from the door and wow, I have never seen anything so beautiful - even more gorgeous than the photos. Each bedroom also had wall-to-wall windows and stunning views - which felt like 4 master suites and the fifth room was an amazing surprise, too. The pool, hot-tub and slide were super fun as were the frogs that chirped at night. The big island is big...which was the only drawback as the remote location meant lots of driving to see everything, but perfectly suited for a relaxed getaway and we left knowing we will have to return to this amazing island.

Exceeded Expectations

The moment we passed through the entry gate, we found ourselves in a genuine Hawaiian paradise. From the natural beauty and stunning views to the well-stocked and maintained property, everything was ideal for our trip with our three adult children and their significant others. Taking in the views of Waipio Valley and the ocean, including the occasional whales swimming by, the beauty of the landscaping across the huge property, the pool and of course, the gourmet kitchen is where we spent most of our time. The bedrooms were all very comfortable and well appointed. The secluded outdoor shower in the main house was a surprisingly nice touch. A very unique and special property.
