About this property
Hawaiian home with incredible ocean views, orchids, and gorgeous sunsets
Our home is in a rural area of the Big Island, on one acre of landscaped property with orchids, palms, banana plants, a koi pond and more. This is our personal residence, available the months when we are not there. The kitchen is totally equipped with everything but a dishwasher. The house is at an elevation of 2800 ft., so it's very comfortable during the day, with nights usually in the 60's to low 70's. This is rural, about 1 1/2 hrs. from either Kona or Hilo, an hour from Volcanoes National Park. It's quiet, with dark skies at night. The local town is very small, with a few grocery stores, gas stations, restaurants and a few local businesses like auto supply and hardware. Nearest ocean beach is 20 minutes away. The Kahuku segment of the National Park, with great hiking, is 10 minutes away. Our house is in a quiet area, with starry nights and panoramic ocean views during the day. Black sand beach, with resting turtles ashore is about 25 minutes. There are lifeguards, and there's snorkeling. This is real Hawaii.
If you have children under 12, please monitor them at all times. We have high decks (with appropriate railings), agave plants and a koi pond on the property.

About the host
Hosted by Barbara Bergmann
We are from Washington, and spend our winters at our house in Ocean View. We have lots of company while we're at our home, and enjoy showing them a relaxing time, and local sites. When we aren't home on Hawaii, we enjoy knowing that we have introduced others to a lovely laid back life style, and maybe they will think about the possibility of spending more time in Hawaii, as guests or even owners. We enjoy knowing others appreciate our efforts to have our home ready for them to enjoy.
This is a quiet part of the island, with the closest tourist attraction being a segment of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, called Kahuku, 10 minutes away. Few people visit it, which makes for a lovely under the radar experience of Hawaii the way it used to be.
We feel very fortunate to have found such a serene place, and are happy to share with like minded guests.

Why they chose this property
We aren't city people, and don't need lots of city amenities around. We love our house, our property, our neighbors, and our fantastic view!
What makes this property unique
Our house has two bedrooms and two baths, so if more than two people stay, there's plenty of room. The kitchen is very well equipped since we use it and like to cook; the lanai is huge with several different seating options. The property has lovely orchids, plumeria, ohias trees, fruit trees, other tropical plants and a koi pond. Best of all are the fantastic view towards South Point and out over the vast Pacific, and the beautiful sunsets.
