☀️🐋 Direct Ocean front ~The Views! Pool,AC in all rooms! November BIG DISCOUNTS!


Aloha & Welcome to Mermaid's Oasis! This 4 bedroom home with new split AC in bedrooms and living area! It is directly oceanfront in spectacular Hawaiian Paradise Park. I also have a two bedroom Ocean front with pool just .5 miles down the road if your party is bigger than 10 please inquire about the other property as well. It truly is paradise here! Before you even step foot in the door you are greeted by a Hawaiian Sea turtle fountain and pond, with tropical flowers and fish. Enjoy listening to the waves crashing on the lava rock cliffs and revel in the awe-inspiring Ocean views that can be seen throughout the home's living room, dining room, and covered lanai areas. The soothing sounds will lull you to sleep at night. Enjoy the private pool which is also Oceanfront, or just sunbathe on the pool deck. Watch humpback whales breach and tail slap and dolphins play in the winter months directly in front of the house, and sea turtles right at the water's edge throughout the year. Try fishing right off the lava cliffs at the water's edge!

Mermaid's Oasis is just that, an oasis for you to relax and enjoy every second of your time while staying here. The house sleeps 10 comfortably so bring the whole family or a big group of friends. You don't have to fight over the master bedroom because we have two, both with king-sized beds and bathrooms attached. The third bedroom has two Queen beds and the 4th unique bonus room has a full sized bed as well. We have furnished the home with comfort and luxury in mind. Enjoy the 70" TV in the living room; you don't have to miss your favorite programs or the big game. The three main bedrooms also have large flat-screen TV's and if you are out exploring the island set the DVR to record your "can't miss" shows! The 180-degree view of the Ocean might distract your TV viewing though. The dramatic, hand-painted, floor to ceiling artwork in the living room brings the beauty, and magic of the ocean indoors.

Each room has beach-inspired furnishings and attention to detail making your stay relaxing and memorable. You won't want to leave this Mermaid's Oasis! There are an oversized washer and dryer for your use during your stay. In the bathroom, you will find bath & beach towels and toiletries you may use during your stay including shampoo and conditioner, lotion, sunscreen, Q-tips, cotton balls, after sun aloe, and other necessities. Bedrooms Have new AC units to keep you cool and comfortable at night. There is a pack and play for little ones!

The kitchen has everything you could need for cooking and dining indoors or outdoors. There is a new Weber BBQ just off the kitchen. Dine inside on the large hardwood table with Ocean views, or dine alfresco at one of two outdoor seating areas under the covered lanai. You can't beat the views and Ocean breezes. Just off the kitchen is a bar area for entertaining. Take advantage of the outdoor seating area to read, have cocktails, or socialize.

The house is in a "banana belt" and gets far less precipitation than areas even just up the road or in the Hilo area. Evening showers help to keep the tropical plants and trees lush and green.

Mermaid's Oasis is just 25 minutes from the Hilo Airport and 30 minutes from downtown Hilo. There are some great restaurants in Hilo. We love Pineapples and Café Pesto. Both have outstanding food and great atmosphere. Le Magic Pan is an authentic French Crepe restaurant. The crepes are a full meal and there is daily live music. There are many fine ethnic food choices to suit every taste. There is a shopping mall, and in charming downtown Hilo there are farmer's markets on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Day snorkel, dive, and whale watching trips leave from Hilo too, or take a boat to see the lava flows up close. Just outside of Hilo are numerous gorgeous waterfalls. Under one of the bridges Hammerhead sharks hang out!

Pahoa is a small quaint town just 10-15 minutes from the house. It has cute shops, some local taverns and art, as well as a few "can't miss" restaurants. Pele's kitchen is great for breakfast, and Kaleo's and Paolo's Bistro have 4 star dining. There is also pizza, Mexican, Thai, and sushi choices. Grocery stores, drug stores and many other shops can be found in Pahoa also. The Makuu Farmer's market on Sunday's has hundreds of local vendors offering fresh produce, local art, souvenirs, and food trucks. This is a must! It is located on Highway 130 between the house and Pahoa.

Of course, one of the biggest attractions on the Island is the Kilauea volcano and you are just 30 minutes from that. Don't miss it! Don't forget awesome zip-lining and horseback riding if you have the time. There is a small zoo and macadamia nut farm midway between Hilo and the house too.

Mahalo & Aloha, We hope to see you soon, and you enjoy your relaxing stay so much you will return for years to come. My parents are on-site in a separate small studio to help you during your stay, and the house is separate and neither unit disturbs the other with noise. They are there if you need anything and can be undetected if you want privacy. Our guests appreciate knowing if they need something someone is close by.

Aloha, Robyn

Amazing!
If you go to the Big Island, this is where you want to stay. The view is the best. We saw sea turtles every morning. It was less than 10 minutes from a good-sized farmer's market. All the stuff in Hilo is just 30 minutes away. Plenty of room for our family of 6 adults. Lots of beach gear! Thank you.

Amazing Stay
Had a great time, the location of the house is just breathtaking, spent an age just staring at the waves crash against the rocks, saw turtles too! The house is a canny way of the main road situated in a quiet neighborhood, house well stocked. The only issue we had was the heat, we knew at the time of booking the AC was only available in the bedrooms but the lounge and dining areas we found too hot but us Brits just not use to the heat. The coqui frogs were amazing, in full tune all night.Pool was an added bonus. Overall a fabulous stay, really missing those waves!

No bonus bedroom!
Nice house, well equipped. We were about to cook dinner a few nights with the grill and nicley set up kitchen. However, the description says bonus bedroom and there was not one. It was a day bed in the kitchen which none of our kids would sleep on because of being on the other end of the house and large open windows all around. We were traveling with another couple and our 6 kids total so "5" bedrooms would have plenty but ended up having to make a palette on the floor because of this lack of "bonus bedroom" Whats even worse is we had to list our 15 yr old amd 13 yr olds as adults not children so got charged an extra $400 for "additional guests" Not the best house if you actually need to sleep 10. Also, you should probably say in the description that there are people living in the apartment in the basement, not just in your about host. The whole point of a VRBO is not having to stay with a host! Mind you, they were not a bother and we only ran into them a handful of times, but if our kids were swimming or we walked outside we could see them through their windows. All in all, i just wished the description of the house was more accurate because we payed a lot of money for the stay and if we would have know the truth then we would have known that house wouldnt have met our needs and we would have booked somewhere else.

Amazing view!!
This house was perfect for our family. Plenty of room for us to hang out altogether or have some quiet time. The view is amazing!! I could've watched the waves all day!! Just beautiful! We loved the lanai area! Great breeze and perfect spot to watch the sunrise! Kitchen was well stocked. Plenty of beach items to use. Great location to explore the Hilo side of the island. We really enjoyed our stay there.

The views!
Loved this place outside of Hilo. The grounds were beautiful with an amazing view - house was perfect for us and allowed us to spread out some and easily cook our own meals a couple of nights. No complaints at all but do know it's a few minutes drive to the grocery store and downtown Hilo - perfect for us!

Life is Pono at the Mermaid Hale
Clean, well equipped with recreational equipment and a well stocked hale. The upbeat Mermaid / ocean theme was a delight for all who stayed with us. Our property manager was prompt in answering all our questions and we loved falling asleep to the sound of the surf and frogs at night. Love this place and we will be back, you will love the serenity here.

Location, location was the key
The views and location was great, but the cleanliness was not so much. The windows were very foggy with the prior guest leaving inappropriate imprints on the glass. The showers were dirty and shower curtains moldy and smelly. The pool was dangerous as the hose was busted along with deck creating sharp edges. The description says host are on property and would see them but they are directly downstairs and felt like we were always being watched, we saw them everyday. Other than that it was great, there was beach equipment and a cooler which was a plus. The views and whale, turtle, dolphin and other sea life watching are amazing.

Beautiful spot with waves you could watch all day!
The house is located in a quiet neighbourhood at the end of a long street. It's very safe and very quiet - the only thing you'll hear at night are the frogs and the waves! If you like to run, walk, or hike, you'll find all of these just out your front door. The kitchen is very well equipped, the furniture and the beds are very comfortable and the pool is perfect!. And the view! You can beat the view!

Best views in the cleanest space!
We were a family of 9 (ages 5mos-72) traveling from Seattle and New York and this home suited our family perfectly. The views are AMAZING and we all loved hearing the crashing waves from the lanai. The home was very well equipped for every need we were all very comfortable with the space. The lack of AC in common spaces was a bit challenging during the day, but the nights were comfortable with just the fans going. The pool was a great way to cool off and again, the views! We would definitely stay again!

Scenic Stay near Volcano NP
This was a great stay for my family of 8 adults to explore volcanos national park and Hilo. We enjoyed coffee on the porch every morning and having plenty of space in the common areas. The volcanic beach right outside was perfect for sunrises and sunsets and relaxing after a day of exploring. The bedrooms were clean and accommodating but note that 3 of the bedrooms are connected.
