This was our second stay at the Whale Crossing! Our stays were a few years apart. It was as beautiful as we remembered. We were treated to the wonders of the whales breaching time and time again. Its like being on your own island on the island! If you want total relaxation and seclusion, this is your calling card. Linda and Marty are simply the best hosts. We can't thank them enough for our adventures there. This is a must vacation cottage.

Find a quiet part of the island with a view of the ocean, a lovingly created property, nothing too fancy, just quiet and perfect.

First off, this isn’t your classic vacation rental. It is the cutest tiki hut with a separate bathroom building. No AC but not it’s not really necessary with the ocean breeze , ceiling fan and screens all the way around. Beautiful decorated. Owner even provided robes and sleep masks! We loved waking up to the ocean view visible right from the bed. Would stay here again in a heartbeat! Owners dogs were a bonus! They were friendly but not intrusive.

We booked 3 nights here to begin a 3 week vacation in the islands. It was great and we wish we had booked the whole first week here. Sleeping to the nature sounds, deep quiet too and then waking to the expansive view! We were able to exhale from our great but very active lives- to reset. Will come back just for the outdoor shower alone and stars alone. All the reviews are true - oh and thanks for the binoculars too.

If you want a true island experience - stay here! From the amazing view, to the open floorplan to the outside shower (don't panic, there is an inside one too) - this was a relaxing getaway. You are close to a few small towns that have stores and restaurants, but far enough away to have some solitude. All you needs are covered with supplies, amenities and even lots of beach equipment to use! Linda is an amazing host and very kind. We hope to come back soon!

Like old Hawaii! Beautiful tiki cottage tucked into a tropical paradise with a 360 degree view of the ocean and Maui beyond. We enjoyed the coastal hike (right next to the property) to historical landmarks while we watched whales breaching off the shore. Great proximity to Hawi, etc in the fantastic North Kohala area.
We Loved everything about the place including the sweet and friendly dogs. Linda and Marty were so friendly and perfect hosts. 5 star all the way*****

If you're looking for a real Hawaii experience away from the crowds and tourist areas, A Whale Crossing is for you. The accommodations are a little tight and the kitchen is basic, but it's actually very comfortable. The bath cabana is great and the outside shower was hot. The views from the deck were amazing and just below there's plenty of room to play fetch with the dogs on the extensive lawn area. Linda was a wonderful host. If you love the 4 Seasons or Mani Lani you probably wouldn't be searching VRBO for a unique, out of the way place to stay, so take a chance - you won't be disappointed.

If I was to ever move to Hawaii, Linda’s little place is the type of house I would want. It is scenic, rural, rustic and peaceful. What it is not, is a sterile, spotless hotel. My husband and I have been to the island many times but we wanted to explore the Kohola area. This house was the perfect home base. We enjoyed great hiking, snorkeling, beaching and marine life watching which was all in a few miles. Hawi is a great little village with nice shops and good restaurants. So if you want to have an experience where you live more like a local and experience a more rustic life, please rent this little slice of heaven.

My heart skipped a beat when I pulled up to this place. This is a one of a kind location on the northwest tip of the big island with a view that will take your breath away. If you can handle the rustic, slightly janky cottage (I found it to be perfect) and don't mind visits and very occasional barking from four extremely welcoming dogs then you, like me, will have found a glimpse into paradise. I'll be back. Hopefully many times.

If you need a “reboot” from the frenzy of big city living this is for you. The “challenged” road down to the property is worth the time. Once there it is a view of epic proportions and a very comfortable cottage. Linda and her smiling pack of Goldens are the best!
