Zuki House - 3BR, 2BA Ocean Close, Hot Tub

Zuki House is a modern and elegant vacation rental close to the ocean. Enjoy our ocean view balcony upstairs outside the main bedroom suite. Our high ceilings and bright, modern furnishings give you comfort and style to enjoy throughout your stay. Experience the inspiring nature of Hawaii Island including volcanoes, dashing waterfalls, colorful botanical gardens and lush jungles. Enjoy local restaurants from a variety of cultures including 'local' comfort food, Thai, Japanese (sushi), Chinese, Vietnamese and so much more.

Zuki House occupancy is 5 guests. We have three bedrooms, one with a king bed, one with a queen bed, and one with a full bed. There are two full bathrooms. One bedroom and bathroom is upstairs in the loft with a balcony lanai with ocean views. On the main floor are the other two bedrooms, full bathroom, kitchen, dining area, living room and covered wrap around lanai. Enjoy the ocean sound and breezes from the outside. The yard is nicely manicured and our hot tub is perfect for star gazing at night. There's a nice outdoor shower too.

Located in Pahoa on the east side of Hawaii Island, Zuki House is close to the newest black sand beach on the island, created by the 2018 lava flows. Pohoiki is an amazing site to drive to through cooled lava fields about a 30 minute drive from Zuki House. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is about a 45 minute drive and the Pahoa Lava Museum is about a 10 minute drive.

Book with confidence—this is a licensed, legal vacation rental managed by professionals with decades of local experience. Always double check that you are booking a place that is operating legally in Hawaii - no surprises, just aloha!

What's nearby

  • In 1790 a swift moving lava flow leveled the forest here and drained away, leaving behind a new forest of "lava trees". These hollow rock columns were formed when the lava wrapped around the cool tree trunks and quickly solidified. When the molten lava drained away, these rock columns were left standing. The columns are hollow because the tree trunks themselves were incinerated during the process, but only after the rock had cooled enough to hold it's shape. If you look closely, you can sometimes see the texture of the tree bark in the rock molds.

Super clean and beautiful

Pahoa is very family area and away form the rest. Zulu house is lovely and super clean. Property manager super helpful. Short walk tot he shore.you can see the ocean form the house itself. My only is there are limited foo options and you have to drive 15-20 min. Hilo has good options but that would be 30 min plus drive

Comfortable, Safe, Beautiful Location

The home provided more than enough room for 3 friends and would be comfortable for a family with kids, too. A couple parks are well intermingled in the neighborhood which is quiet and a good location to walk, stargaze, and sleep well. Hilo is accessible but not too close, the Sunday Maku'u Market is a must, and the proximity to the ocean provided a relaxing vibe.

Loved this home!

Such a beautiful house. All amenities we needed and more. Property manager and owner were both very responsive when we had a little hiccup with the hot tub — it was fixed and running within 20 minutes after we reached out. It was warm upstairs (January) in the evenings but stayed comfortable with the portable AC. Would love to stay again.

Zuki House

We had a lovely stay at Zuki House on the Hilo side of the Big Island. This was our first trip to Hawaii, and it was a wonderful choice for meeting up with friends from Europe. The accommodations were comfortable, well-appointed, and provided everything we needed for a relaxing and memorable visit. The sunrises from the property were stunning, and the sounds of frogs, rain, and waves crashing added a magical touch to the experience. It was such a peaceful way to start and end each day. The property was clean, and the management team was helpful and responsive whenever we had questions. Zuki House made a fantastic base for exploring the Hilo side of the island, and we’re leaving with so many wonderful memories. Thank you for hosting us and making our first trip to Hawaii so enjoyable!

Grade A Stay!

We absolutely loved the place! Great quite location! Close to a beautiful beach cliff park, perfect for morning coffee sunrises. We took every opportunity to enjoy the backyard hot tub soaks several times a day! The upper loft can get a bit warm from the afternoon sun, but the comfort of the bed makes it worth it! That loft bed is amazing! The setup was perfect for our pleasure and four adults. The kitchen is shy of a few sets of glasses/cups for everyday use, but we made it work with a few red cups! We will definitely be booking for another stay!

The covered lanai is the perfect place to hang out after a soak in the hot tub. Our family of 4 felt totally at home in the quiet neighborhood. There are flowering trees and plants everywhere and the ocean park is less than a block away! It is Paradise! Thank you, we really hope to come again.

Great for the whole family

This house was roomy and a wonderful stay for my entire family. We traveled here with a family of 6 and everyone was super happy! The king sized bed is wonderful and the hot tub was a nice treat at the end of long days seeing the island! The kitchen had all you need to cook, and although we did not use the grill, it was there as a nice option on a beautiful lanai. Breakfasts were great as there is a nice big table for us to all sit together with a breakfast bar as well- You can walk out to the ocean within 30 seconds and the sunrise off the cliffs were picturesque and real pretty. Seeing the ocean right out of the master bedroom was nice for my wife and I! Really enjoyed our stay. Mahalo!

Zuki House Vacation

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: Terrific place to stay. The owner lives next door and is very helpful. The living area was very enjoyable. I enjoyed reading on the back porch in the warm Hawaiian breeze. Perfect! The only drawback was the first floor bedroom did not have a queen size bed as noted. The master bedroom in the loft is great, but there is little privacy from the people downstairs. This is better for one couple or a small family.

Pahoa Vacation

This is a great home to stay while visiting the Big Island. The location is beautiful although a bit far from everything. Hilo is about 30 minutes away but can take a little over an hour during high traffic times. The house is clean and looks exactly like the photos. They make note of portable AC units downstairs but I didn't see any. There is a portable AC upstairs which is helpful since there isn't a great cross breeze upstairs. AC wasn't needed downstairs during our stay since we stayed in a cooler month and there is an amazing cross breeze once you open all windows. I saw that some guests had complained about terrible wifi but I didn't have any issues and I had to work while on vacation so I would have noticed. Overall, great place and would definently stay again!! Property managment was attentive and very nice :)
