If you want an escape from the hustle and bustle of life and want to experience truly local culture, visit this spectacular b&b. Didier (the host) greeted us and helped unpack the car, loaded with all we thought we'd need for 8 nights on our Big Island adventure. We were continually reminded of old travel wisdom, bring half of what... More

I very much enjoyed my stay at Absolutely Paradise. My visit to the Big Island was but a short one and I am jolly glad that I chose this part of the island. Yes, it is a bit out of the way, but the drive from Hilo was easy enough. The house was very comfortable and homely. I had the... More

Beautiful house in a nice private setting in our favourite part of Hawaii. Nice comfortable room which was made up for us daily. Help yourself breakfast whenever you are up and ready for it. Friendly and helpful host, Didier.......when we asked about snorkelling, he provided us with snorkelling equipment to borrow so we didn't have to buy r rent them.... More

My partner and I met up with friends and had three of the four rooms in the house. The fourth room was occupied by two great guys from OH, and all of us got along well. I only state this, as if you are here alone, it could be a very different experience for you. The house, 3 rooms in... More

I'd like to thank the reviewer for his very detailed review and particularly for bringing to my attention the problem with one of the shower-heads in the shared bathroom. I do not routinely test shower heads when cleaning and no other guests had mentioned the problem to me. It will be repaired ASAP. I'd like to take this opportunity to... More

This is a wonderful B&B in a beautiful part of the big island, especially if you're interested in see the flowing lava up close and personal. The black sand beach a five-minute walk away is also a fantastic place to unwind and meet new friends. The host is the best, showing us secret swimming holes and snorkeling spots we would... More

My partner and I stayed here for the Thanksgiving holiday. This was our first trip to the big island (we've been to Honolulu) and this is the best place to stay hands-down. Deider couldn't have been more helpful or gracious. He knows everything there is to know about the island, He lent us one of his guide books and snorkle... More

This B&B was the perfect place for our recent trip to The Big Island of Hawaii. We stayed there fro 4 nights and enjoyed the tranquil surroundings, the proximity to the Kilauea volcano site and other small towns and restaurants. Didier, the host, was very helpful in terms of making sure you go the most out of your time and... More

We felt completely at home staying with Didier in his B&B near Kehena Beach. The house and rooms were lovely and very clean. He was thoughtful, warm, and friendly - even took us to play volleyball at the neighbor's place (turned out to be once-a-year drag volleyball, quite a hoot). Would have preferred a king bed instead of a queen,... More

Our visit to the Big Island was one of our best vacations ever. This is greatly due to deciding to stay at Absolute Paradise rather than some of the more tourist-type resorts on the other side of the island. We spent hours exploring on our own and many wonderful local people. We could not have found some of the hidden... More
