"Nice and comfy!!"

"Chris was my host and he has a nice comfortable place. It was like hanging out with a friend. Everything was clean and the house rules were explained and easily understood. Very economical."

"My stay at Ocean Temple in Pahoa, Hawaii, was pure bliss. This oceanfront retreat, backed by 500 acres of state land, is a sanctuary of serene quietness. The soothing sound of the Pacific Ocean and the absence of urban noise created a deeply peaceful escape. At night, the star-filled sky, with the Milky Way in full view, was breathtaking.The 1,100 sq ft open-plan space, once a Buddhist Retreat Center, exudes tranquility. Expansive sliding glass doors frame ocean and garden views, while mahogany accents, a king-size bed with cotton bedding, and plush towels add luxury. The lanai was perfect for sunrise coffee or whale-watching (in winter). A nearby black sand beach offered a serene spot for yoga or reflection.Privacy is ensured with a private entrance, and the shared laundry room is a plus. Nearby Kehena Beach, Volcano National Park, and local farmers’ markets added adventure, but the property’s calm drew me back. Dining options in Pahoa and Uncle Robert’s marketplace delighted with fresh flavors.The cleanest air in the U.S. and vibrant surroundings left me rejuvenated. Ocean Temple’s sacred vibe and serene quietness made it unforgettable. I left feeling refreshed and can’t wait to return."

"Great, but financially was not clear. "

"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 "

"Owners were amazing and the property was old school hawaiian. The lush property and drive down papaya farms road was incredible! Couldnt have asked for better place to stay!"

"We stayed in this home for the full month of March 2025. We rated this a 10 based on our top three requirements: next to the ocean, clean, comfortable beds. This home met all three requirements. The ocean with its spectacular crashing waves, stunning views, and swimming turtles was wonderful. The sound of the waves at night along with the comfortable bed made for excellent sleeping. The home was clean and the two new area rugs were a nice update. However, as others have noted, this home would benefit from additional updates. For example, the couch is very uncomfortable. Our inquiries via email were answered promptly. Overall, we enjoyed our stay."

"We loved the house and its close setting to the shore, where you could see sunrise, big waves, dolfins and turtles. The area of rainforest and fresh lava fields is amazing. So spend a few more nights on Big Island and visit that spot! Its absolutely worth it."

"Fantastic location steps from an ocean front turf park. Amazing lanai views and furniture "
