Relaxing Gardens - Peaceful Retreat w/Panoramic Ocean Views

Welcome to our private, peaceful retreat on Hawaii Island's Hamakua Coast - Relaxing Gardens. Unwind and enjoy the panoramic ocean views from our home atop a hill in Laupahoehoe, Hawaii. Our lush gardens will delight your senses with color, fragrance and even a few edible fruits. Rainbows and Stargazing from our lanai will amaze you... no city lights to block views of nature!

Relaxing Gardens welcomes you to explore the inspiring Big Island from our convenient location on the coast between Hilo and Waimea. We are far enough from towns that you feel like you're in the country and we are close enough to fascinating Hawaii Island sites that you can be entertained every day. Delight in both Sunrise and Moonrise views over the ocean from our lanai.

Relaxing Gardens sleeps 6 guests and offers three bedrooms. One bedroom is on the main floor with a Queen size bed, desk and chair. There is a full bathroom from the hallway with an elegant 'walk-in' shower for ease of access. Also on this main floor is our well stocked kitchen, dining area with panoramic ocean views, and a comfortable living room with TV and free Cell-Tower WIFI . You will also certainly enjoy the full, covered lanai for hanging outside!

Upstairs is another full bathroom with two sinks and a deep bathtub with shower. There are two bedrooms upstairs. The main bedroom boasts incredible ocean views, a Queen size platform bed plus a Full size bed. The third bedroom has a Queen size bed and sunrise views over the ocean. All rooms have air conditioning and the house stays very temperature comfortable year round.

We supply games, beach chairs, beach toys, wine cooler, outside shower and clothes line. We also stock a starter supply of soaps, detergents, and paper products. Please purchase your own refills for longer stays, mahalo!

The pictures of the property are perfect of the property. Beautiful home and location. Road getting to the property is a bit steep and curvy but worth the drive! The property is in the rain forest and that comes with geckos, but they kept to themselves.

Privacy and a wonderful ocean view
Our family of 4 stayed at the Relaxing Gardens home. The property was secluded (which was fantastic), it had gorgeous vegetation, and a beautiful ocean view. It was very spacious and we all had our own space to relax and rejuvenate ourselves. There was plenty of outdoor seating, a hammock, and space in the front of the house to go outside for some fresh air. The kitchen was well stocked and we lacked for nothing. Relaxing Gardens is a great place to stay. We used it as our home base as we traveled around on the Big Island.

The location is also excellent with good proximity to lots of great hiking and sightseeing. We would definitely come back again.

Beautiful home with very comfortable furnishings, linens, & every kitchen appliance/gadget you’d need. We used the BBQ & made wonderful meals. The wrap-around deck & the sunrises were incredible, including a botanical garden. Close to Hilo but so very isolated with truly the most breathtaking ocean views. Convenient to Waimea, Kona, Volcanoes & so many waterfalls. We will absolutely be returning. Mahalo

Perfect stay on the Hilo side
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I have been vacationing on the Big Island for over 30 years and have always stayed on the west side of the island in Kona or Waikoloa. We tried this rental on the east side for the first time. We’ve all agreed we will be staying on the east side and, hopefully, in this home from now on. It’s the most aptly titled rental. It truly is a relaxing garden. The home and gardens are magnificent. The sunrises from the front lanai are amazing. There is a little general store with a bar and restaurant about 4 miles away, otherwise you have a very isolated feel. Hilo is only about 35 mins away. There is a nice oceanfront park about 2 mikes away where we snorkeled, played frisbee, and explored tidal pools everyday. This was absolutely our best Hawaii experience ever.

Fantastic home near Hilo
Absolutely wonderful stay at this property. The house was in an absolutely gorgeous setting on a well-maintained garden lot with a great view of the ocean and sunrises. It was very convenient to Hilo and many of the sites on the Eastern side of the island, including Carlsmith and Richardson beach parks, volcano national park, and Hilo. And it was relatively easy (an hour and a half drive) to Kona and the west side of the island. The house itself was clean and comfortable, with large, spacious rooms and comfortable beds. The kitchen was stocked with all the cooking pans, knives, and utensils we needed. It was such a great home. A wonderful stay and a wonderful home.

Incredible property out of the mainstream!
Beautiful, comfortable, well equipped home situated in a garden paradise with panoramic ocean views. The care and communication from property managers was the best we have encountered during numerous rentals! This was our first time staying north of Hilo and found it very relaxing. It is a 27 mile pleasant drive to Hilo and 14 from Honoka’a north. The home is located on a one lane road and environs are very peaceful. Picked oranges and limes for great juice… marveled at the daily flower display. The beds comfortable, furniture very nice, spotless and well cared for property! Could go on and on but suffice to say if you desire a well situated, relaxing, easy to get to the sights and attractions spot to land, Relaxing Gardens is it!

Lovely and Private
The house is in a private and some what remote location north of Hilo. It’s a little tricky to find, but once you open the gates and find your way in, you are glad you came. Beautiful views of the gardens and ocean are had in every room. Kitchen is well appointed with almost anything you could need. The whole house was spotless! We stayed 5 days and were very comfortable. Do realize that almost everything is quite a drive. Volcanos NP is a 90 minute drive through Hilo and the attractions of the Kona area are 90 minutes north. Akaka Falls is nearby and there are other local attractions if you look. We would definitely return. The management company was very responsive and helpful. The fruit and other snacks were much enjoyed!

A True Paradise
Relaxing Gardens exceeded our expectations. We stayed 4 nights as our home base to explore the Hilo side of the island and it was perfect for our family of 5. The home was exactly as described in the listing. The photos do not do it justice. The views from every room are sensational. We woke up to the sunrise over the ocean and enjoyed sunsets every evening. The layout of the house with 2 bedrooms/1 bath upstairs and 1 bedroom/bath downstairs is ideal for a family plus in-laws...I wish we invited my parents to join us! Home is well-stocked and simply pleasant to be in. Dining indoors with endless ocean views and also on the wrap-around porch was a treat. The gardens surrounding the house are amazing. I was constantly admiring the landscaping, flora and beauty. The thought/planning that went into the design really shows.We were not prepared for such a botanical adventure outside our door! Location of the home was just right to explore the northern coast as well the downtown Hilo and Volcanoes areas. Driving up and down the road to home was one of my favorite parts...it was just so peaceful. We did not want to leave. We actually regret not staying longer and prefer the Hilo side than Kona. Highly recommend Relaxing Gardens!

Reviewer Comments: I am generally queasy about hotels and vacation rentals, but this house changed my mind!Highlights: super clean. well stocked with EVERYTHING, views from the bedrooms and entire house overlooking the ocean were incredible, loved laying in the hammock to relax. Also lots of beach gear: water shoes, snorkel gear, and chairs hotelsSuper clean floors - totally felt comfortable walking around bare foot, which I never do in anyones house. Walk around the neighborhood was so fun. The clementines that we got permission to pick were just incredible - still thinking about them. Overall, one of the best places we've ever stayed at and we would definitely go back! Highly recommend.

Beautiful Location
The location overlooking the property and the ocean is incredible in the mornings. Sunrise is a special event. The house is well maintained, furnished well, and has all the amenities that you need. While on the more rainy side of the island, the rain occurred in the evenings and did not interfere with our plans. There was mentioned the sound of frogs, but we found them soothing along with the rain at night - a natural green sound machine. Someone in a prior review mentioned the road, but the road was good - one lane, curvy and paved - any car can make this road going slow. I would recommend this house if you are looking for a quiet location to recharge and be away from the city. The sunny side, Hilo and the volcanos were all within less than an hour drive. Nearby the house is a great local store and restaurant - Papaaloa Country Store (papaaloacountrystore.com). Look online for their hours. The store had most things you need, and the grab and go food was excellent. I recommend trying their fish tacos and Lilikoi Cake which is addicting.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We’ve stayed at the Fairmont Orchid on the Kona side before but wanted to give the Hilo side a try and found this rental gem! There was clear communication and instructions and we found the house without a problem. The yard and ocean view is spectacular! We spend lots of time sitting outside on the porch with our morning coffee. Kitchen was well stocked and lots of laundry supplies. We didn’t use the beach supplies in the carport closet but such a great extra to have! Hilo was 20 minute drive and the falls were even closer! We stopped by Waimea farmers market on the way to kona one day and it was a beautiful drive. Highly recommend this beautiful rental as it gave us a totally different authentic Hawaiian vibe and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful rental with spectacular views.

Beautiful House with stunning views
It looks exactly like the pictures. Stunning views of the ocean. I mean STUNNING!! I couldn’t wait to lift the shades every morning. Privately situated with a gate. We felt safe there. Very clean and well equipped house. Instructions were clear and the host was very responsive to questions. If you’re looking for remote, this is the place. It’s a good 40 minutes from Hilo meaning grocery stores, general shopping needs and convenience food are not close so rent a car, preferably 4WD. I doubt DoorDash would travel out that far. There is a small gas station about 5 minutes down the road that has some limited snack food and some other diner food options about 20 minutes in the opposite direction. My advice is to stock up on everything in Hilo before you head to the house. We didn’t and had to make a meal out of what we could find at the gas station the first night. It does get a bit noisy in the trees after dark. We weren’t expecting that but we looked it up and think it’s little frogs and birds possibly. Once we turned on the TV and we barely heard it. We drove back and forth across the island to Kona a couple of times and it’s a pretty easy drive (2 hours there and 2 hours back) because it’s just gorgeous everywhere you look, even inland. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Gorgeous! This house truly was a very special part of our vacation. We woke up every morning to a breathtaking oceanscape and went to bed every night after taking in an unobstructed view of the stars. The house and grounds are very well kept, clean and well stocked. We had all the kitchen utensils, towels and bedding we needed. While inside the home is lovely and comfortable, the outside is a tropical paradise full of a variety of flowers, fruit and nut trees, and an enormous mango tree. The grounds were so beautiful, we took the opportunity to do some high school Senior pictures of our daughter outside. When we weren’t relaxing on the front porch in the hammock, we were experiencing as much of the Big Island as we could. The location of this house is very convenient for exploring both sides of the island. Short day trips took us to Volcanoes National Park, black sand beaches, white sand beaches, even a green sand beach. There were plenty of great hikes close to the house with a variety of terrains and amazing views of the ocean, waterfalls, and rivers. From exploring the nearby farmer’s market to wandering around a local art gallery to eating a traditional Hawaiian meal at a unique restaurant, opportunities to experience Hawaiian food and culture were not far away. The owners of this house are wonderful people and made sure all our needs were met. We could not have enjoyed our stay more!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The views here can't be overstated. From most rooms and deck we were blown away regularly looking through the many large windows. At night, we could see an incredible amount of stars in every direction.The home was very comfortable, clean and with any amenity we could have hoped for. The kitchen was well outfitted and there was even a rolling cooler available for our convenience. There were two large bedrooms upstairs with a large shared bath, which included a washer and dryer. Downstairs was an open concept, with dining room and living room. As well the downstairs had a private bedroom with a bathroom and it's own side porch. Plenty of seating inside and out.This was our first visit to the Big Island and we booked half of it on the Hilo side and half on the Kona side. The plan was to explore and we were perfectly located for just that. The home is located about 25 minutes from Hilo, 45 from Waipo Valley and about an hour from the Volcano Park. Although we worried about being too remote, it didn't feel that way at all ultimately. Within 5 minutes of us was an excellent general store with great prepared food and hot food/pizza etc. They even have music many days of the week.Although it rained sometimes periodically, there was nothing like ongoing downpours. All in all, the home

Beautiful home in paradise
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view from this house will make you never want to leave! Honestly, build in at least an extra day into your timeline just to sit on the lanai and watch the trade winds blow through the palm trees. The landscaping is stunning, and there are lemon, lime, and orange trees for fresh picking just outside the back door. The house itself was clean and had what we needed. The downstairs bedroom/bathroom was perfect for my in laws to not have to climb the stairs. The 2 upstairs bedrooms worked great for us and our 3 kiddos. The view alone from the master bedroom is worth renting this property. There were plenty of linens, and having a washer/dryer at the property was so helpful.We also made use of the beach chairs and beach towels for our beach days. We didn't use the BBQ grill, but appreciated that there was one for easy dinners after sightseeing. The owner/property manager was responsive and provided all the information we needed before and during our stay. Would definitely recommend this little piece of heaven as a home base for exploring all the Big Island has to offer!
