Coconut Cottage/Sunrise Cottages Hawaii

SusanRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Very peaceful - background noises from birds, frogs, etc. covered up any noise from the modern world. Resident cats were also very friendly - especially when I had poke for dinner! Great place - I would definitely stay there again!

Hawaii Volcano Coffee Cottage

DanaRating, 5 stars4 days ago
10/10 and beautiful home! We absolutely loved our stay at Scott's, it was so cool to wake up and look out at the coffee plants, and the room itself was stunning. It was so clean, tastefully decorated and truly had everything that we needed (including a hot tub!). Scott was very proactive in his communication which was super helpful. We felt right at home and wish that we had more than one night at Scott's. We would highly recommend staying here, beautiful surroundings, beautiful home and a peaceful night. Thank you so much!

Adventure to Shipman Beach Trail - Modern Bungalow

ArjunRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Host is 10/10 and place is 10/10. It was immaculately clean and very well organised. Location is slightly secluded but for us it worked. You would need a car for sure. Madeline is super responsive and super helpful. Everything she recommended was to our liking and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay ❤️. I would highly recommend this stay.

Panoramic luxury beachside condo in paradise A/C

JamieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
I cannot say enough wonderful things about the condo, the owners, the communication, and the location. This was a dream vacation for us and we could not have asked for a more beautiful place to spend the week. The condo was well stocked down to beach towels, snorkel gear, coolers, and boogie boards. The beds were incredibly comfortable and this was a major plus for us because nothings worse than sleeping poorly on vacation! The communication was above and beyond and when we had a fluke problem arise with one of the appliances, they had it taken care of quick! I was impressed! The location is perfect and because it’s centrally located, we were able to get anywhere we wanted to go on the island easily. We loved the quaint little beach area behind the condo, the pool, and the sunrises from the balcony where we spent most of our time when we were in the room, soaking it all in. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Excellent all the way around!

Kai Malolo - Amazing Eco-friendly Oceanfront Home!

The view alone is worth the price! Everything was so lush and beautiful! We felt like we were in our very own private resort. We enjoyed the spacious house itself and the outdoor area. The pool was great and the beds were super comfortable! This was a great base to explore the entire Big Island of Hawaii! I would recommend this home to anyone! Just book it already!

Puna Rainforest Retreat Hotspring Rainbow Cottage

TaylorRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Literally paradise! Cottage (Rainbow Cottage) was super clean and provided what was needed. Grounds are meticulously kept, was able to take walks in the morning and even though other cottages were occupied, rarely ran into anyone else. Did enjoy the greeting of a friendly dog once in awhile. Perfect location to get away and be one with nature. Close enough to Pāhoa town and great location to be able to drive to Hilo and Volcanoes National Park. I visit the area at least once a year, no need to look for any other place to stay. Definitely recommend! Thanks Jacklynn!

Under The Milky Way: 24 acre farm.

RyanRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We stayed 5 nights here without issue. It seems as though the hot water issue in the shower is fixed as we had no problems at all. We loved the privacy of the place- while still being within 30min of Hilo! Would recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway to the big island!

1 Bedroom Beach Villa Steps to the Beach

SteeleRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Incredible stay. Couldn’t ask for a better location. The Villa felt super private, yet we were close to many local hotspots. Would love to stay here again. One downside, the bed is a little firm. Gal was super accommodating too. We had several hours until our flight after checkout, and he allowed us to use some of the beach equipment for one last beach trip.

Cottage in the Crater

AliceRating, 5 stars1 day ago
What a place! This home truly has everything you need—and then some. Every appliance and piece of furniture is high-end, and the entire space is spotless. The attention to detail throughout the house really stood out to me. As a tea lover, I especially appreciated the instant hot water faucet—such a small touch, but it made things so much easier. Communication was fast and seamless. Honestly, this may have been my favorite rental yet. Highly recommend!

3BR villa with A/C, pool & short walk to beach!

TobeyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Our stay at the Villa was amazing. The layout was perfect for gathering and also spending time alone if desired. It was spotless and had all the amenities we could ask for. We enjoyed having such a big kitchen with all the cookware that we could ever need. Our host thought of everything. There were games and beach items for our use. We also loved having a lanai that was perfect relaxing and spending time on. We were steps away from the pool and a 10 minute walk to two great beaches. The fitness center was also a big plus. We were minutes away from shops and restaurants. Dominika was friendly and super responsive if I had any questions. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a stress free and enjoyable time on Kauai. It was great!

Villa Paraiso Hawaii Huge Pool & Hot Tub. Up to 12

MichelleRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Beautiful home with just a short walk to Maku'u Point, which we took frequently. The pool and hot tub were enjoyed daily and the kitchen was nice and big to fit our big family. It was our own private paradise. We also appreciated that the house included sustainable features, like solar panels and rain water use. We couldn't have asked for a better experience on the big island. Made our time there very memorable.

Absolute Paradise, Near Kehena Beach, Ocean View

SarahRating, 5 stars2 months ago
A wonderful place away from the busy city! Our family enjoyed this home and all it had to offer, the pool, soaking tub, beautiful plants, frog hunting :) and even the games left for the guests. We traveled into Hilo most of the days here but our host gave us wonderful local recommendations for nearby attractions and restaurants. It was a beautiful home tucked away in a beautiful botanical garden!

Your guide to Hawaii

Welcome to Hawaii

What we see as the eight islands of the Hawaiian archipelago are in reality the visible peaks of a sprawling oceanic mountain range that first erupted into existence more than 65 million years ago. Today the resulting tropical landscapes outlined by some of the world’s most breathtaking beaches host millions of visitors seeking warm weather, brightly colored sunsets, crystal-clear waters, and maybe even the occasional whale or sea turtle sighting against the backdrop of paradise.

But what makes Hawaii particularly special is the opportunity to discover your favorite island specific to your interests. Island hopping is easy and reasonably affordable, so whether you prefer the cosmopolitan luxuries of Honolulu, the laid-back vibes of Maui, the rugged landscape of the Big Island, or the breathtaking biodiversity of Kauai, there’s an opportunity to mix and match should you want to wander.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Hawaii

A year-around temperate tropical climate buffered from trade winds means almost any time is a good time to stay in one of the many scenic vacation rentals on the Hawaiian islands. That said, each island hosts a multitude of microclimates and localized weather specific to its unique geography. This means it’s possible to experience all four seasons in one day, especially across the biggest island of Hawai’i, where 11 out of 13 climate zones can deliver both sunburns and frostbite if you’re ill prepared. The windward (north and east) sides of islands tend to be wetter, while coastal regions along the south and west sides can be so dry that cacti can be spotted growing along hillsides. Pack layers in preparation for a surprise rain shower or a chilly welcome at the top of a volcano. And be sure to bring high-strength sunscreen, as it’s easy to burn under a tropic sun.


Top things to do in Hawaii

The Road to Hana (Maui)

Traveling Maui’s 64.4-mile stretch of winding coastal cliff-hugging highway and one-way bridges can admittedly be a white-knuckled experience, but the journey rewards with unforgettable sights along the way: waterfalls emptying into emerald pools, empty stretches of beaches, and black sand beaches where local kids build sandcastles. Most visitors turn back after reaching the sleepy town of Hana, but those who continue to complete the loop will take in a surreal and sometimes barren landscape shaped by volcanic forces still slumbering underneath.

Alakai Swamp Trail (Kauai)

Walking through the world's highest rainforest can be both disorienting and magical. The boardwalk trail is often blanketed by a swirling layer of fog, slowing your pace to a shuffle. But this is all to hikers’ benefit, provoking visitors to stop, listen, and look around more carefully than if the path was easier. Unusual accumulations of moss and fruiting mushrooms can be found all along the way, with rare endemic birds often heard but rarely seen, masked by the dense vegetation. The hike ends at Kilohana Lookout, where on a clear day you’ll look out onto the depths of Wainiha Valley all the way out to Hanalei.

Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park (Hawaii)

For most of us, walking upon an active volcano crater might be the closest we’ll get to visiting another planet. And indeed, the landscape of Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park frames an otherworldly geological scar — a hot, steaming, hissing wound stinking of sulfur dioxide gas. For those hesitant to get that up close and personal, the 11-mile route known as the Crater Rim Drive allows you to take in the view safely from your car, or at various lookouts or observation decks from a distance.
