Relaxing ocean view home
The house is a unbelievable get away for being outside of the touristic grout. We loved the house in the minute we walked in. Is is very clean and we didn't miss anything. Susie, the woman who takes care of the house, did a great job. The lights were on and we felt really welcoming. Dan and Melanie are a great host. They both shared a lot of information with us. This place is perfect for relaxing: reading a book or just viewing over the ocean. We have heart whales braving at night. Unbelievable. We can fully recommend this place if you want to relax and not going out every night for dinner. Thank you again.

Another Amazing Stay
This was our second time at Rick’s Place and we were not disappointed. We stayed on the property 3 days and explored the island other days but made a point to be back to see the gorgeous sunsets. Dolphins came by almost every day, and we even saw a shark. Dan is an amazing host and easy to deal with. We really enjoyed connecting our iPhones and playing Spotify through his stereo system. Nothing better than listening to your favorite tunes while enjoying the incredible views from the patio deck. The outdoor shower is so relaxing. We look forward to coming back for another relaxing vacation.

Ricks Place was Incredible!! We had a Great time and if we were just to relax here that would have been fine! Very comfortable with everything you need except food and theirs 2 markets just 11 miles to the south! Only here 6 nights but could have stayed much longer! Loved the pool and outdoor shower and the chairs out front to view sunsets!! We saw whales - dolphins and turtles right out front!! Dan's a great guy and glad we met him and he help with what ever we wanted!! My wife and I always rate the places we visit and we both said Rick's place is A+!!! Hope to return soon! John & Jenny

True paradise
Wow! The only critique of this place is that the pictures do not do it justice. Seeing the beautiful green roof as we came down the mountain was exciting. While the home is beautiful, the first moment that we walked out the back door, we were in awe of the ocean beating against the cliffs. We had a high surf warning, and enjoyed a front seat to the waves splashing against the volcanic rock on the patio. It was a wonderful welcome, and instantly put us in awe of the beauty of the area. This home is wonderfully located between Volcanoes National park and Kona. However, getting to Hilo was not an inconvenience. Being in the southern area of the island, it was easy to make both sides of the island very attainable. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend visiting Volcano National Park, Richardson’s Ocean Park and Rainbow Falls in Hilo, the Green Sand Beach, Black Sand Beach, and spending a day enjoying Kona as well. We rented a boat from Kona boat rental, and enjoyed snorkeling at Captain Cook and taking in the ocean. Couldn’t have been a more enjoyable experience and true getaway!! Thank you, Dan, for opening your home, and providing hospitality along the way.

We have been coming to the Hawaiian Islands for the past 15+yrs, having stayed in Hotels and VRBO'S. Rick's Place only needs to be described with one word WOW!! It was such a beautiful place. We loved the pool, the decor, the outdoor shower, all of it!! Rick's Place had everything my husband needed to cook with, as well as extra towels, coolers, comfy bed etc... We saw a whale everyday, and a Dolphin, super excited about that.

My wife and I really enjoyed your home Dan. The way you decorated, your home was just the way we would’ve decorated our VRBO. Anywhere we sat, we could watch the ocean, we enjoyed the whales the first day we got there. The secluded neighborhood was fun to walk through and talk to the neighbors. The house was in a perfect spot to visit the southern end of the island for the first time for us. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, lots of towels and we sure enjoyed the geckos sneaking into our wine glasses. :-). Will always remember this trip! Thank you so much!

Relax Relax Relax
This is the perfect place to get away from it all. We had stayed in Miloli’I before, just down the street, so we knew to bring supplies with us, and that the location was a bit out of the way. Which is one of the reasons we chose to stay at Rick’s Place. Ok I did forget my hairbrush and it was quite an adventure to find one. This is one of the best equipped properties we have ever stayed in. The kitchen has everything you need. I cooked daily. The relaxation began the moment we arrived. The house was decorated (we arrived Dec 23rd) with a small tree, lights and we opened the door to Hawaiian Christmas music and in time for sunset. I can’t describe how relaxing it is just to sit on the lanai and stare at the ocean or sit in the pool and stare at the ocean, take a shower and stare at the ocean or lay in bed and stare at the ocean do yoga on the lanai and stare at the ocean. The house is magical. I brought a kindle but found it more enjoyable to just grab one of the many paper books. Whales arrived on Christmas night. We had daily visits from them, a highlight of the trip. There were a few days that we had plans but decided just to stay at the house. We were there for New Year’s Eve, we watched the fireworks from the lanai. We haven’t relaxed as much on a trip in years, if ever. I am a big question asker and Dan was great dealing with my many questions and was quick with all his response. I have already been looking at the availability so I can book a return trip.

We stayed for 2 weeks and loved every moment. We have a farm in rural northern Colorado and prefer to be away from the city. This house was perfect. It felt like a true Hawaiian home. We spent most of our home time on the lanai, watching the water fireworks, enjoying the pool and hammock. Dan was super nice and wanted our time here to go well. Loved the gecko friends!

We had a great time staying at this house. It is so relaxing and peaceful. A bit out of the way if you are wanting to sightsee everyday, but only a little over an hour from both Kona and Volcano National Park. We spent most of our time in the pool or sitting by the ocean. We met Dan and he was a great guy. Had told him we were celebrating our anniversary and asked if there were rafts available for the pool. When we arrived, there was a bottle of champagne in the fridge and two new rafts waiting for our use. Great gestures to start our stay. Would highly recommend staying here and we are actually already looking for dates next year.

Fell in Love - Want to Vacation Here Again!
Derek and I were celebrating our 35th anniversary and both of our birthdays. We were driving to the house around the 5 o'clock hour. We die not want to miss the sunset. We walked into the house where Hawaiian music greeted us. What a welcome! We couldn't stop looking around at everything. The layout of the house was great and so many fun things to look at. Then we stepped out onto the patio deck and once again we were stopped in our tracks. The lounge chairs; the hammock; the pool; the cliff deck; and best of all - the view! Oh, and the outdoor shower. I never took a shower inside - only the outdoor shower where I could see the ocean while cleaning up. We spent much of our week at the house. It is so inviting and comfortable. We relaxed in the pool with music playing on the outdoor speakers, watching the ocean for dolphins and sea turtles - we saw both! Dan was a wonderful host and it is obvious he loves his job and the house. The house was very clean and well-equipped. Everything we needed was there. Even a Thermal coffee carafe to enjoy coffee down on the cliff deck, where we spent each morning. When we visit the Big Island again, we are definitely going to try and book here again. We just want to thank Dan for the wonderful hospitality! Derek and Carol

This was our 2nd time at Rick's Place and it didn't disappoint. The house is equipped with everything you would need, we just stopped off at Safeway in Kailua for food & bottled water, then headed to the house. The location is out of the way but the views are worth it. (If you want to eat out and shop every day, this may not be the place for you). It was nice meeting Dan, he was quick to respond to any questions we had and we enjoyed learning about the area from him. We loved the pool and sea side cliff, we saw turtles and fish swimming around. I was excited to see a pod of dolphins swim by and the sunsets are unbelievable. This was by far our most relaxing vacation, we didn't want go home. We will definitley be back!

25th Wedding Anniversary
5 Star doesn't cut, our stay at Rick's Place was a 10+++. We had stayed here in 2014 and fell in love with it. We didn't think it could have been any better. Boy were we wrong! Fast forward 9 years. From the moment we pulled in the driveway we knew we wouldn't want to leave. Dan you have outdone yourself. From the fully stocked Kitchen, to the openness of the Bedroom, to all the upgrades to the outdoor area there wasn't anything that we needed. Two of the Seven days we were here we decided to not even leave and enjoy the much needed relaxation. Only regret we had was due to a delay in our flight we not only missed being able to meet you, but we missed the first sunset by mere minutes. Mahalo Dan, you are a wonderful host and we will be back. Hopefully during Whale season.

The place is absolutely stunning with gorgeous views and we loved how it felt like our own private resort! The bed was super comfortable and the kitchen beyond stocked. Dan was available when we had questions and answered quickly. The only thing which I feel obligated to say because it effected our sleep was the dog next door. Unfortunately he had a loud booming bark and woke us up throughout the night and early each morning starting as early as 430am. Even with the dog this place was one of the best stays we’ve ever had! So just bring ear plugs or a white noise machine!

This place is totally as great as it looks in the pictures. It was so pleasant that we spent a nearly two of our days on the island just lounging at the property. It is also well-appointed with the little things that make a property comfortable to spend time in rather than just being a roof over your head with amenities. It is well-stocked with everything you will need: towels (beach and bath), cooking necessities (pots, pans, and spices, oils). If we make it back, we will definitely stay here again. The only thing renters should keep in mind is that it is in a remote area of the island so it will be a bit of a drive to most attractions.

This was an amazing property and exactly what we needed to spend time together and relax. Landed in Kona and after a late lunch went to the grocery store and headed to the property. When we walked in there was Hawaiian music playing, a soft breeze and that amazing view. We saw dolphins, turtles and even a reef shark while we relaxed in the pool. The host was very responsive to any of our questions and has created a comfortable and inviting home. On the last day my husband kept asking to rewind the week and start over.

Wow! So Many SUPERlatives!
Rick’s Place is stunning! The views, the amenities, and Super Host Dan made this stay fantastic! I am a VRBO owner myself, and I left feeling like I need to step up my game 👍 The mood is set from the get-go with soft Hawaiian music surrounding the pool, lanai and overlook where whales and dolphins make almost daily visits. The location was ideal for checking out roadside stands for lemons, limes, avocado and Mac nuts. All the favorites! Five ⭐️ all the way! Mahalo

Pictures Don't Do It Justice.
My wife and I still can’t believe how amazing a stay we had. Despite a rainy week for the island, we still had beautiful sunsets/rainbows and totally relaxed looking at the ocean from the large lanai and swimming pool. We saw spinner dolphins and humpbacked whales come up very close. The outdoor shower was amazing and the house itself is well appointed and clean. We were able to connect our cell phones via Wi-Fi to the indoor/outdoor stereo system to play our favorite music. As others have noted, you can hear the whales at night spouting and tail slapping. Plan on eating most of your meals in as there are limited choice nearby. Shop in Kona before you head down to the property. Dan was very attentive and took care of us during a short power outage. Nice neighbors let us fish off their property and gave us tips on places to see. A great place to relax and recharge.

Amazing place to relax!
My husband and I spent 2 weeks here for our honeymoon and it was amazing! The house was even better then the pictures! We saw whales a few times right off the sea wall and the pool heats up pretty quickly for nice afternoon swimming. Dan was super helpful with anything questions we had. Would highly reccomend Ricks Place!

Paradise on the Sea
What a wonderful, relaxing place to stay. Far from city lights and noises. Dan was amazing and shared some of his local honey as well as avacados with us. So good!! He even got us new bikes to ride around in the neighborhood with. He was always a text away if we needed anything. It was really an amazing place to stay. We even were able to see the glow of the erupting volcano from our deck!! WOW!!!!

Literal Paradise!
This is the most beautiful location I could have ever dreamed of! My husband and I spent half of our honeymoon here, and the other half at a resort, but we both agreed that we should have stayed here the entire time! The view was indescribable, the pool was perfect, and there was more than we could have ever asked for. Everything we could have possibly needed was right there on the property...kitchen items, bug spray, sunscreen, pool floats/noodles, snorkeling gear, extra sheets and blankets, towels, toiletries, and even some over the counter medications. The house was decorated so cute and beachy, and the outdoor shower was a dream! We loved looking out over the ocean watching the sunset every night and waking up with that beautiful view in the morning. Our host was very helpful and was always available for questions. Overall this was a 10/10 stay and we would definitely stay here again!

Great stay, great memories
Rick’s Place was a great spot to get back home to after long days exploring and driving. Upon arrival we were greeted by open doors and island music playing in the house (new favorite station, Kapa FM). The views from the lanai and the sea wall are amazing. The host made sure that the place had everything you need to have a great stay, and cook meals to your hearts content. We made friends with the local geckos, and even saw some wild goats chilling on the cliff next door. We finally took a break from activities on our last day to just enjoy the house. It didn’t disappoint, we were graced by a humpback that breached 3 times a couple hundred feet off the sea wall. Wow! On our stay we also got to see the lava at the volcano at night, huge sea turtles at black sand beach and take in a beautiful sunset dinner cruise in Kona. All reachable within an hour or so drive. Great memories, highly recommended accommodations! Mahalo!
