Come stay in this serene Hawaiian ranch house with breath-taking ocean views. Just outside of Hilo, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath sits peacefully on a hillside next to an old Sugar Mill. Private and modern, this home is a short driving distance from Akaka Falls, the charming town of Honomu, Honolii Beach Park, and the Hawaii Tropical bioreserve and gardens. This ranch house is outfitted with a full kitchen, high speed internet, a wrap-around porch, and plenty of organic fruit trees. The house is quiet, serene, and tastefully-decorated with touches of Hawaiian art, flora, and wicker furniture. The former owner was an avid cook, and the kitchen is fully stocked with most appliances and cookware, so it's an excellent home for family dinners and group meals. The best part of the house, however, are the plentiful fruit trees and ocean views. it's a magical place to spend reflecting and recharging, or catching up with friends. The house is remote and private - it sits on five acres - so you do need a car to access the location. The parking is free, with two covered spots in a carpark and one additional driveway spot. The ranch house is the private home of my mother in-law, who keeps a bedroom at the house, but will not be present while guests are completing their stays. That said, she and her housekeeper are accessible should any issues arise with the property. Pepeekeo is a small town seven miles north of Hilo with a population of roughly 1,800. The ranch house is set in a small ocean-side community on a hill, with houses spaced far apart for privacy. The neighborhood is quiet, with a few families and is very safe, with few visitors other than the residents who live in the area. It's a great place for those looking for a peaceful Hawaiian refuge or a area for relaxation and reflection. There is no public transportation to the Sugar Mill Ranch House, so visitors will need to have a car of some sorts. The house does have a front gate and a private driveway, where up to three cars can park. The gate must be locked when guests are not at the residence. Please note, our prices include Hawaii's taxes for vacation rentals and there are no additional fees with this booking.
