Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second stay in this wonderful house and we are already looking forward to next year. Talk about a hidden gem. Basically right on the beach, but with privacy. Stocked with everything you might need or want and Mary’s team is just a phone call away in case anything comes up. From having the Hawaiian music channel playing and cold towels and a pitcher of cold filtered water in the fridge when you arrive, to the papayas and limes ready to use. We settle in like it’s home. ##### Barbra B.

Mary was wonderful and attentive, making our stay at Ehu Kai the best lodging of our entire trip to the Big Island (we also stayed at another house and two resort hotels). Without a doubt, the best thing about the house was the location. The street was quiet and secluded, unlike the houses a little further south on Puako. Waialea Beach is a breathtaking, white sand beach. It isn't a very deep beach, but it's sandy enough and shady, and its proximity to Hapuna Beach, which was spectacular, probably kept the crowds down. There was a lot of coral around the rocky parts of the beach that made the snorkeling very nice, and a strong swimmer could swim around the southern point and snorkle the absolutely amazing reef around Puako. Reef shoes were a good idea in this beach, since only a small portion in the center had sand any significant distance from the shore. The location of the house was great for visiting the Kohala Coast, but a little far if Volcanoes National Park and the tropical side of the island are of greater interest. We did day trip to Waipi'o Valley, Hilo, Mauna Kea, and Pololu Beach and, although doable, the drives were far enough that we didn't get to enjoy the beach back at the house as much as we would have liked. If vacationers are only interested in finding a nice spot on a beach and enjoying the sun, sand, and snorkeling on the western side of the island, there was nothing better that we came across than this part of the Kohala Coast. One thing good to know is that strong winds kicked up every afternoon and evening we were there. These winds cooled off the house nicely every night, but kicked up the water so much in the afternoons that snorkeling wasn't much good after lunch. Mornings were the best for snorkeling, although the only sea turtles and moray eels we saw were in the murky waters late in the afternoonon at the house. Everything at the house worked well. My husband and I were comfortable on the bed, and the kids did great in the living room on the sleeper sofa. The only warning I would give to future renters is to plan for stocking the house a bit. There was no shampoo or conditioner, and the toilet paper ran out in two days, so we had to run out for some necessities that hotels normally stock on our second day. However, the heated outdoor shower, airy lanai, laundry room, great management, comfy interior, and fabulous location made this place 5 star anyway. ##### TZx2+NQXrZddRpGQ/Rg8pYZiIp8Qc0gqPkP9f5usPju0oxQzPpMxmAyy059L6j6M T.

Reviewer Comments: Our 7 day stay at Ehu Kai cottage was delightful. Much thought and design was put into this treehouse type bungalow which typifies old hawaiiana with rich wood interior paneling. Perfectly clean upon arrival. Easy access to the beach and snorkeling. Grocery shopping a short drive away. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware with very nice appliances. The air flow from many windows,the ceiling fans and nice bedding made sleeping very comfortable. The staff at 2 Papayas was excellent in helping arrange our reservation,notifing us prior to arrival, updating us with weather warnings, quickly resolving any house repairs and providing a thorough to-do list for easy check out at our time of departure. Hawaii Surf & Kayak delivered SUP Boards to the bunglow for our length of stay and we did a kayak tour with them nearby viewing turtles, manta rays and octopus. Hearing the local songbirds each morning was a special treat! ##### Kerry L.

Reviewer Comments: This is a very comfortable home for a couple or small family. We also rented Ulu Nui as we were a large family group. The location is oceanside, with a white sandy beach, has fantastic swimming and snorkeling with turtle viewing nearby. We had sunset watch every evening, beach star gazing at night, barbeques, and dinners on the lanai. The beach is easy to access for small children. Location is quiet, an easy drive to markets, shopping or entertainment. Most mornings and evenings I was the only one in the water! Manager is attentive and services are all arranged for a carefree visit. Love, love, love this location and the accommodations. ##### Judith T.
