Paradise Retreat, POOL, Hot Tub and AC with ECO energy!

Paradise Retreat is your own private resort on Hawai'i’s Big Island. Relax and enjoy the swimming pool and hot tub in our private, fully enclosed back yard. Lounge poolside in the sun-soaked chaise chairs or stay cool on the covered lanai. In the evenings, enjoy starry nights and listen for the waves crashing just a few blocks away.

The home is designed to collect the island trade-winds and naturally cool the interior, especially during the evening hours with the A/C off and the windows open. Our A/C systems efficiently cools the home during warm days, if necessary, using only solar during the day-light hours.

Our home has been recently updated, is fully furnished and stocked with linens, pool towels and all the kitchen items you'll need for cooking your favorite meals. Water from our well is filtered and UV-treated before entering the home.

Paradise Retreat has three bedrooms and three bathrooms. The main bedroom suite has a king-sized bed, en-suite bathroom with slate tiled shower AND jetted bathtub. The two additional bedrooms share a bathroom with a bathtub and shower. One of these bedrooms has a queen size bed and the other has two twin beds. The third bathroom is in the large laundry room. We provide a washer and dryer for laundry and a starter supply of laundry strips to avoid large plastic detergent jugs.

Located in Keaau just south of Hilo, Paradise Retreat is in a great place for day trips to Volcanoes National Park, Hilo, Pahoa and the heritage Hamakua Coast. Let us point you in the right direction for adventures, cultural sites and ocean activities. Our neighborhood is quiet at night except for the mesmerizing Coqui frogs. Please respect quiet hours 9pm to 8am by keeping noise levels low. If you can’t hear the Coqui’s, it’s too loud. Mahalo nui loa for your green choices, respecting our home, our neighbors and our Island. E Komo Mai!

Paradise Retreat is an eco-friendly get-away and leaves a small carbon footprint on our beautiful island.

This is a Hawaii County licensed short term rental.

Seclusion
Very much enjoyed our two week stay in this house. Very secluded and quiet. The geckos at night chirping was so loud and enjoyable. The grounds of the house are so beautiful. Only issue was there is no rail on the pool. Made it difficult for my wife to get in and out of the pool. Enjoyed all the local small restaurants and we also cooked too. Made for a very memorable family trip.

Beautiful grounds.
A perfect home for a family of four. We split our Big island vacations in two, with our Hilo stay being all about relaxing at home, by the pool w home cooked meals. This is house is perfect for that. Half an hour away from groceries and restaurants, if needed. The pool is pretty chilly-which is great on sunny days, unfortunately we hit a rainy week so we couldn’t enjoy it to its full potential, however the tub worked wonders. Our youngest is a very strong swimmer and our oldest is a teen, so the pool size and depth was perfect for us. The neighborhood is very quiet and private. The neighbors we happened to see were all very friendly. The landscaping provides excellent privacy. A review mentioned a dog barking, and he does but it’s a small pup and it’s not an annoying bark. I heard the wild fowl more than the dog. If you love the Hilo area, this is a great spot. Only suggestion would be a lock on the gate but it’s probably unnecessary. I enjoyed the walking the grounds w my little one. It was fun.

We loved the house overall except the 2 guest rooms were very small and hard to cool even with doors open and AC on.

Paradise Indeed!
The property was clean and well-maintained. The outdoor space was a true highlight, and we spent most of our time outside! The pool, lanai, lawn, and tropical plants created an ideal lounge space in paradise. The house is stocked with kitchen gadgets, linens, puzzles, games, pool toys, and lawn games. There were even a few pantry items, so we suggest checking in and assessing what is on hand before doing any shopping. We appreciated the eco touches (like solar panels, recycling, and composting). And every interaction with the Salt Water Vacations team was excellent! They are friendly, professional, and quick to respond. We would definitely stay here again!
