Stayed Oct 11, 2025We had a fantastic time at this vacation rental! The pictures don’t fully capture the experience—it felt like staying in a Swiss Family Robinson treehouse. The cats on the property were a huge hit with our kids, and the roaming chickens added to the authentic Hawaii vibe we’ve loved on other islands.The beds were comfy, everyone had their own space, the patio was great for meals and relaxing, and the outdoor shower was a fun touch. The host was excellent with communication and provided great local tips.Highlights from our time on the east side included the black sand beach, nearby waterfalls, stargazing at Mauna Kea (the most amazing night sky I’ve ever seen), Hilo Farmers Market, Volcanoes National Park, Shipman’s Beach (a host recommendation and our favorite!), and dinner at Pineapples in Hilo. Shipman’s was about a 2.5-mile hike each way—rocky and muddy on the trail but worth it for the peaceful setting, sea turtles, and gentle waves.Tips for future guests: G**gle Maps worked best for finding the property. It’s walking distance to scenic ocean cliffs, but you’ll drive to most activities. There are great food trucks and coffee stands nearby (about 20 minutes round-trip), and Hilo is roughly 30 to 40 minutes away - helpful for activity planning.Overall, this was our favorite stay in Hawaii—our kids even listed the house itself as a highlight of the trip!

Stayed Sep 10, 2025Our stay at Christina’s treehouse in Hawaii was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed and taken care of. Christina went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. She stayed in touch throughout our trip, checking in via text and providing excellent local recommendations (you have to check out the Paradise Cliffs).

Stayed May 31, 2025Christine is very communicative and this is a one of a kind property! The cats ate the best and the thoughtfulness of the design is top notch. We loved all of the ideas about where to go and what to do as well. We had to work a little to figure out how to cool down the rooms quickly but that was more us than the property :). You really felt like you got away from it all!

Stayed Apr 7, 2025Where do I begin; a few days before checkin I got a message with instructions for our arrival, half of which was a list of everything that was NOT included in our rental (pretty much the whole downstairs half the house- I messaged the owner to make sure we did book a private property as advertised. There must be some serious security concerns with this place, as there are exterior cameras and warnings all over the property. As soon as we checked in and parked I received a text asking to move our car to the designated parking, just a few feet away from where we had parked. No problem. I messaged the host, asking where the second half bath was located... got a very defensive reply explaining that the outdoor shower was the second bathroom. Ok on that too I guess even though I never heard of an outdoors shower being called a bathroom. There was only hot water in our bathroom sink no cold water, which I wasn't notified about until right before checkin. By the next morning she allowed us to use the downstairs bathroom and do laundry for free, but we were already so turned off that we didn't bother.This is a beautiful well equipped house and nice property, but there are too many restrictions and we really weren't sure what we were and were not allowed to do while on property it made me wonder if there were cameras inside the house as well. There are lots of other great vacation rentals you can stay with less drama Sadly this review will probably get a terse reply from the owner

Stayed Mar 23, 2025Our family enjoyed our stay in the treehouse! A unique place, very quiet neighborhood close to the ocean. Host is very responsive and helpful, we had a minor plumbing issue and they were on top of it right away. The kids enjoyed playing with the cats. The one downside is there's not much as far as restaurants/stores super close if that's what you're looking for, but overall we loved it.

Stayed Mar 12, 2025This lives up to all the pics and description! We had a hard time leaving to venture out for the day, as we just wanted to enjoy the “treehouse”! Highly recommend booking this adorable place and plan to chill for a couple days and just enjoy! Mahalo Christina!

Stayed Jan 3, 2025The house is on a 1-acre lush property in a quiet neighborhood set one street back from the ocean. Very convenient location but one should have a vehicle as the neighborhood is enormous and 4 miles to the main road. House was as described but we didn't know up front about the downstairs situation (as Vinnie H. described in May 14, 2024 post). Unfair of him to review as such a low rating as we had the house to ourselves and everything matched the description, including the drinking water. The owner was VERY responsive in communication. Friendly cats around the property (plus all the interesting wildlife). Owner added kitchen & bathroom supplies helped with our short-term rental. I wouldn't hesitate to re-book if we stay in the area again.

Stayed Dec 15, 2024The house is spotless and spacious with a lovely lanai looking over the lush tropical garden full of birds. We loved the quirky decor and all of the thoughtful touches such as the Christmas lights and cocktail set. It is very well equipped with everything we needed for cooking and lots of towels.

Stayed Sep 8, 2024This was a lovely home sourround by a beautiful landscaping. You must be able to sleep with minimum airconditioning as they turn off every four hours. A/C is controlled by smart devices under the landlords control. This was one of the most miserable experiences we have had in all our years of traveling.

Stayed May 29, 2024We enjoyed this unique property, especially the deck in the morning and evening. The stray cats were sweet and my daughter really liked having them around. Only issue was with the showers. The outdoor closed in shower was very hot and unable to change the temp; the indoor shower was chilly and the other outdoor shower ‘one with nature’ was just right. Other than that, the property was as described.

Stayed May 24, 2024We loved staying in this house. This property is so charming and really feels like you are in Hawaii. Very well-stocked, clean, and comfortable. Perfect location for my family to explore Hilo, go zip lining, and visit Volcanoes National Park and the black sand beach.
