Tropical Paradise

What a wonderful way to end 2023! From the first contact with owners until we left we were checked on and made sure that all was going well. The house and the property was just like the pictures except better! The tropical landscaping was amazing and the outdoor living spaces (lanais) were spacious, well appointed, and had very nice breezes day and night. The house was extremely well maintained and the kitchen had everything we needed. Grilling our fresh fish on the back lanai on a chef quality grill was delightful! And watching sunsets from the small beach directly across the street was amazing. We will be back!

PERFECTION!

Without a doubt, the most beautiful place we have ever stayed. The location of this home can't be beat. You're literally steps (across the street) from the ocean and breathtaking sunsets. The home is tastefully decorated with island themes throughout. The main house is spacious, and the ohana is perfect if you're traveling with older kids, grandparents or another couple ... both fully stocked with anything you might need during a stay. And super important to us is a comfortable night's sleep. The mattress and linens were amazing! The outdoor space ... WOW! From the lanai to the landscaping, you'll want to spend as much time soaking up the sunshine and island breezes as you can. This place has been thoughtfully prepared for you to have an amazing time on the big island. Thank you, Lois and Dan, for a stay we'll never ever forget. My next trip to Hawaii will definitely be spent at Surfside Temple!

About the host

Hosted by Lois Mishich

Host profile image
Aloha! We are Lois and Dan, the proud owners of Surf Temple, and we'd like to take a moment to introduce ourselves. Our first trip to the Big Island was approximately ten years ago, and it was love at first sight. We were captivated by the island's natural beauty, diverse landscapes - from tropical forests to stunning (black, green, and white sand) beaches, and the overall welcoming aloha spirit.

We are passionate about our home and are thrilled to share it with others until we can call it our full-time residence when our youngest graduates from college. It brings us great joy to provide a comfortable and relaxing environment for our family and guests alike. As hosts, our goal is to ensure that your stay at Surf Temple and on the Big Island is nothing short of unforgettable.

We are committed to making your time here as memorable and pleasurable as possible. We look forward to welcoming you and helping you create memories that will last a lifetime.

Why they chose this property

We take great pride in our home and have created a serene and tranquil environment that we are excited to share with you. Our charming Hawaiian cottage boasts stunning lava rock walls and lush tropical landscaping, providing a peaceful and serene oasis during your stay. You'll be able to fully immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Hawaii and feel right at home in our comfortable and welcoming space. We are dedicated to ensuring that your time here is unforgettable and enjoyable as possible.

What makes this property unique

We are in a prime location on Ali'i Drive, a scenic coastal road, and our property is situated directly across from the ocean. Kahaluu Beach Park, which is renowned for its excellent snorkeling and surfing opportunities, is just a short walk away, less than ½ mile from our location. For those who love swimming, Magic Sands Beach - a white sand beach - is less than a mile away. Our proximity to downtown, only four miles away, makes it easy for guests to explore the local area. If you need to stock up on groceries, the nearest store is just one mile away.
