Pahoa is very family area and away form the rest. Zulu house is lovely and super clean. Property manager super helpful. Short walk tot he shore.you can see the ocean form the house itself. My only is there are limited foo options and you have to drive 15-20 min. Hilo has good options but that would be 30 min plus drive

Zuki House

We had a lovely stay at Zuki House on the Hilo side of the Big Island. This was our first trip to Hawaii, and it was a wonderful choice for meeting up with friends from Europe. The accommodations were comfortable, well-appointed, and provided everything we needed for a relaxing and memorable visit. The sunrises from the property were stunning, and the sounds of frogs, rain, and waves crashing added a magical touch to the experience. It was such a peaceful way to start and end each day. The property was clean, and the management team was helpful and responsive whenever we had questions. Zuki House made a fantastic base for exploring the Hilo side of the island, and we’re leaving with so many wonderful memories. Thank you for hosting us and making our first trip to Hawaii so enjoyable!

Comfortable, Safe, Beautiful Location

The home provided more than enough room for 3 friends and would be comfortable for a family with kids, too. A couple parks are well intermingled in the neighborhood which is quiet and a good location to walk, stargaze, and sleep well. Hilo is accessible but not too close, the Sunday Maku'u Market is a must, and the proximity to the ocean provided a relaxing vibe.

Such a beautiful house. All amenities we needed and more. Property manager and owner were both very responsive when we had a little hiccup with the hot tub — it was fixed and running within 20 minutes after we reached out. It was warm upstairs (January) in the evenings but stayed comfortable with the portable AC. Would love to stay again.

Pahoa Vacation

This is a great home to stay while visiting the Big Island. The location is beautiful although a bit far from everything. Hilo is about 30 minutes away but can take a little over an hour during high traffic times. The house is clean and looks exactly like the photos. They make note of portable AC units downstairs but I didn't see any. There is a portable AC upstairs which is helpful since there isn't a great cross breeze upstairs. AC wasn't needed downstairs during our stay since we stayed in a cooler month and there is an amazing cross breeze once you open all windows. I saw that some guests had complained about terrible wifi but I didn't have any issues and I had to work while on vacation so I would have noticed. Overall, great place and would definently stay again!! Property managment was attentive and very nice :)

Great for the whole family

This house was roomy and a wonderful stay for my entire family. We traveled here with a family of 6 and everyone was super happy! The king sized bed is wonderful and the hot tub was a nice treat at the end of long days seeing the island! The kitchen had all you need to cook, and although we did not use the grill, it was there as a nice option on a beautiful lanai. Breakfasts were great as there is a nice big table for us to all sit together with a breakfast bar as well- You can walk out to the ocean within 30 seconds and the sunrise off the cliffs were picturesque and real pretty. Seeing the ocean right out of the master bedroom was nice for my wife and I! Really enjoyed our stay. Mahalo!

Location location location!

The property exceeded our expectations. It is located steps away from a lovely park overlooking an extraordinary view of the beautiful g island surf. The house has two well appointed guest rooms and one expansive master suite with access to a wrap around upper deck with views of the ocean. The gourmet kitchen is stocked with virtually every tool one would need to hold a a small dinner party. The grounds , which are not really featured in the listing, are lovely and beautifully maintained. I’m not really a fan of spa tubs but the one prominently displayed on the property was so inviting that we used it often during our stay. Our contact person Jessica was lovely and promptly and professionally responded to any inquiries we had. Tip to any future guests. Located in the main part of the town are two essentials. There is a lovely gourmet market called Hama Marketl just a short ten minute ride in the small town center of Pahoa. It has absolutely everything you’ll need ! Just moments away is a hardware store that has everything else! Just one small critique. We found that when we left for the day and closed up the house upon returning the house really heated up. There is an indoor floor unit air conditioner in the master suite which did help with sleeping., however; the vaulted ceiling design of the house makes it difficult to cool down the house. It took several hours to achieve adequate sleeping conditions. Not even certain how this can be rectified. I highly recommend property!

Zuki House

Overall, loved our stay. Check-in was easy; Kekela reached out the day of check-in to make sure we were arriving safely, as we were checking in during the evening time driving from Kona. The home was comfortable and the communal area was open and spacious. We had so many seating options between the 4 of us: bar-height counter seating, dining table, couch with a tv, patio table with bench where we enjoyed some food we made in the fully equipped kitchen plus the outdoor grill, and an outdoor loveseat. We wanted to do laundry but there wasn’t any ready detergent left for us, and it wasn’t on our minds when we went grocery shopping. The upstairs has a balcony that you can see the ocean from, however it’s even better just walking a few minutes down the street to catch a better view of the sunrise and ocean. I enjoyed the upstairs loft with the a/c so my nights were more comfortable than my friends downstairs who preferred to sleep with their doors/windows shut and had more humid slumbers and wished they had an a/c of their own. Expect to see bugs/spiders, little tiny geckos(?). We did our best to keep the windows and doors shut to keep any unwanted guests out, also keeping the areas clean of food and sanitizing. Nature is loud but it became white noise and it’s amazing how alive the night time can sound. From hearing the waves and the raindrops falling on the palms trees, it was a beautiful vacation home away from the crowd/tourists.
