Great Hawaiian Feel

We had a wonderful time on the Big Island. Beautiful home with all the amenities- complete fresh eggs & Hawaiian fruit! Our hosts were great! We even got to experience a hurricane - Dan & Molly made sure we had flashlights & were nearby if we needed anything!! Thanks again for sharing your beautiful home! It’s amazing!

Wonderful place!

Clean, beautiful, quiet place. Plenty of space for a family of 4. Great ocean views from the lanai. Fresh eggs in the fridge courtesy of the owner's chickens. Covered parking spot. If you prefer a countryside stay to the "hustle/bustle" (relatively speaking, of course) and sprawl of Hilo, this is the right spot for you. 100% would stay again. Thank you!

Amazing stay! Best hosts we’ve ever had.

We enjoyed this rental so much. It was clean, beautiful, organized and had all the details that make a stay extra enjoyable. The kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry room were all well stocked, the beds and bedding were very comfortable, the yard was gorgeous, the view was spectacular, and the ease of getting in and out of the gated property was the cherry on top. The hosts were super welcoming and went out of their way to make sure we had a good experience. They were the best hosts we’ve ever had. We would definitely book again.

Hamakua delight

What a delightful stay we had in our beautifully appointed clean as a whistle VRBO on the Hamakua coast of the big island. It had absolutely everything one would need and then some (thoughtful sleep masks). Large refrigerator, washer and dryer, extremely well equipped. The fresh fruit and fresh eggs in the fridge was just a great touch. All this and the adorable unobtrusive little pets and chickens made this a perfect stay Big Mahalo to Dan and Mollie, great hosts

About the host

Hosted by Mollie Michura

My husband and I are originally from Minnesota but found our home in Ninole 8 years ago. We spent years turning our small piece of jungle into a comfortable and peaceful home.
One of the things we love is the beautiful views and proximity to the water.

We love living here and want to share our slice of paradise with vacationers.

Why they chose this property

Our tiny neighborhood is quiet and calm. There are just two other homes near us.

What makes this property unique

Our property is on the Hamakua coast is known for lush tropical rainforest, waterfalls and green valleys. Our place borders a waterfall and year round stream. After a nice rain you can hear the water flowing from everywhere on the property. We also enjoy amazing ocean views. Our neighborhood has towering mango trees that have been here for over 100 years. It's a truly magical place to call home.
