Sunrise over the ocean with private pool
Enjoy the wonderful sunrises at this extremely private studio with its' own private entrance overlooking the ocean. There is a California King bed and two queen sized sofa beds as well as a TV with an extensive selection of DVDs as well as Netflix, HBO and Hulu. There is also WiFi. There is a fully stocked kitchen and bathroom as well as a lanai with a fabulous view. Included is the use of the 70 foot swimming pool and pavilion with barbecue and additional bathroom. The beginning of the pool starts off very shallow and gradually gets deeper. It is surrounded by natural rocks and a waterfall with three streams on one end. The pool is closed on Thursdays for cleaning and maintenence. We are 15-20 minutes north of Hilo Hawaii. Please note 'This is a primary residence'.
The property is surrounded by farms, is a little farm itself with many fruit trees. Bird song will wake you and frog chirps will put you to bed. There is a pool, however most of it is very deep (ă8ft) so not suitable for very young children unless you bring your own flotation devices or will be within arms reach of your child who is learning to swim. The location itself is about 15 minutes outside Hilo, and is lovely, but there are no stores immediately nearby so if you plan on cooking or having dinner in a restaurant plan for extra time for driving. There were plenty of towels and blankets, shampoo etc for our party of 7 including 3 teenage girls,. It was very clean and had plenty of seating for our big group at the indoor table. Sitting on the deck overlooking the ocean at sunrise is not an experience not to be missed. PIt is truly spectacular. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this place if you are staying on the Hilo sode or going to Volcano National Park.
We love the country setting with ocean and mountain views and the rural area allows for wonderful stargazing. It's close enough to Hilo and many wonderful sightseeing opportunities and the beautiful pool is an extra treat.
This was our second stay at Roslynâs property and, again, thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The sunrises over the ocean were simply stunning. The unit is a short drive from Hilo and within an hour of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Lots to see and do, but the property is quiet and relaxing. Thanks Roslyn.
We had such a wonderful 12 night stay at Roslyn's Studio. We were doing a program nearby and could not have been happier. The deck was the best! We would see the sun rise every morning and the full moon over the ocean at night. We even could see whale spouts off in the distance. There is so much nice fresh air up there with all the windows open, glad it was January with all the cool air. Roslyn was really kind and communicative and we were lucky to have run into her and her dogs on several mornings. She even offered us some fruit from her trees and was really proactive with any requests. The kitchen is pretty minimal- no spices, salt/pepper, or oils and only bare bones pots and pans and no hot water kettle. But we totally made it work and it suited our needs for the long stay. Quiet, peaceful, private, comfortable. Really just a lovely place to stay.
We stayed at the property for about a week and it was really beautiful! We enjoyed the view and gorgeous sunrise every morning and the beautiful porch! Rosalyn was very nice too. There are cows and sheep at nearby properties, which was pretty neat to see.
It should be noted that pool hours are only from 12 noon to 5pm each day, which we were unaware of until we arrived. This made swimming difficult for our kids who wanted to wake up and jump in each morning. We also had trouble getting back from our daily excursions in time to have time to swim. You may not jump from the edges of the pool, which was hard for the kids. The pool is shared with Rosalyn. The pool is closed all day on Friday for cleaning. Due to the weather and closeness to the ocean the pool has a lot of algae. I believe she is going to attempt a new pool vacuum soon? It is a very unique pool!
This location is not only stunning on its own but the views are spectacular. Communication with host was simple, easy and fast. Delightful all the way!
House is like a studio apartment. 1 king bed and 2 sofa beds. Sofa bed wasnât the best but wasnât the worst. Kitchen comes with the basics pot and pans and stuff like that. Place could use a small dresser, There is a closet there. There are geckos. Got to see some cows come over by the fence on the neighbors side. No ac but opening all the windows and turning on the fan keeps it pretty cool. Roslyn was very friendly.
Pros:- it has a swimming pool part of it is shallow and deep, also shower and bathroom by the pool
-Stayed upstairs in a mother in law type house away from the main house
-the view of the ocean is great from up on the hill
- love that there arenât a ton of neighbors and your on 5 acres property
- I like that we were only 15 minutes away from Hilo
- love the big deck to look out at the ocean
-thereâs a ton of dvds to watch and thereâs a cabinet thing with games in it
Cons: - wish there was a washer and dryer
-No wifi when we stayed but the new router should be there now.
-wish there was a some curtains, the sun in the morning gets bright.
Pros:
A short drive away from downtown Hilo
Secluded - Good space between neighbors
Great view of the ocean
Private pool
Home owner was close by in case was needed
Cons:
No curtains/blinds on the windows
Home owner residence was too close given the lack of privacy
Pool area seemed a bit rundown - not the pool itself but the patio furniture
We had a wonderful time here!! The property was a beautiful park like resort!! All was perfectly maintained, cleaned , and welcoming!!
We slept wonderfully here and enjoyed the peace and quiet! And the gentle rain of Hilo !

We was very welcoming and friendly to our Hilo family!! We had a wonderful time here!!
We had such a wonderful time here! Just a sweet, gracious host! Wonderful sunrises and all the amenities you could need! I wish we would have stayed longer here! Thank you!
The stargazing was amazing from porch.... the pool to view ocean stunning.... the bed was comfy... can't wait next visit..... breeze thur house clean air freshness
We absolutely loved our time at this adorable place in Pepeekeo. It is very clean and Roslyn even supplies coffee. Not too far from town but far enough to give some peace and quiet. Everything was just as Roslyn said and Roslyn was wonderful and really made us feel at home. The best part were the beautiful sunrises!
We hope to come back!
We loved our stay at the rental. The views were spectacular. Everything was clean and comfortable. Roslyn was a great host; we enjoyed talking with her very much, but she definitely maintained her distance. We were only able to get to the pool one afternoon because of the rainy weather, but what a place to spend a couple of hours! Close to Hilo, Akaka Falls, and the Hawaii Tropical Bioreserve and Garden. Beautiful deck with dynamite view, but beware! Can be very slippery after a rain.
Thanks Roslyn for providing such a great place to call home for a few days!
Great place, well equipped. Too cold for us to use the pool but it looks like it would be fun in warmer weather. Owner lives adjacent and is friendly without being at all intrusive.
Would highly recommend.
There is beautiful wood throughout this Upstairs Studio that gives a natural feel whether inside or on the lanai. The view is amazing and the property is beautiful. You can see the top of Mauna Kea, and a wide expanse of the ocean view. The pool was refreshing and is completely decorated with polished pebbles. Roslyn is a friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable host.
We loved this spacious breezy upstairs studio located in a quiet area. The craftsmanship of the home and large porch is beautiful as is the lovely rural location. The owner is a knowledgeable longtime Hawaii resident and is nearby and helpful.
