Time of stay: 8-11 Mar 2014 Weather: Tropical low (think 1-2 in/hour rain for 22 of 24 hours for 3 days) Sierra (the homeowner) makes this house feel like home! Without such a grand house, I doubt that our solid-rain visit would have been as pleasant and successful as we'd hoped! By comparison, we visited the hotels on Hilo Bay and to a one, they were all rundown, shabby, and uninspiring. One master bedroom with a generous bathroom, one bedroom with a full hallway bath, and a double-bed futon in the family room, plus a full kitchen and screened, covered, walk around porch make this house fully functional for 6. Cable TV proves that 50+ Time-Warner channels provides nothing worth watching (grin), but it comes with WiFi. Bring a HDMI-HDMI cable to port your Netflix to the TV. There are games, books and magazines as well. The kitchen is stocked with all normal utensils and often condiments from prior visitors, but you'll want to do your own grocery shopping. Sierra will leave some items for you upon arrival - fruit, nuts, candies, etc. With the tea candles, it makes for a very lovely arrival after a long trip to Hilo. The view from the rear porch is nothing short of mesmerizing! You will be looking out over your own small waterfall and pond, safe for swimming, 20 feet below your deck. The trek to the pond is a bit challenging, but those without severe joint disease or a walking aid can make it. I recommend "beach shoes" for swimming. Wake up to brew some 100% Kona coffee, fry up some eggs and ham, and you'll be ready to take on a day of sight-seeing, knowing that your home-away-from-home is just 30 minutes away to wash and dry your clothes, have a nice meal (or drive 5-10 minutes to any of the good restaurants in town), and enjoy a great night's rest. Sierra also provided a rental vehicle - Honda CRV van. Plenty of room for 6 with luggage. The back-up camera is essential for backing into the 10%-grade (down) driveway, or you can park on a gravel lot at the top of the hill. You can't miss the coco frogs, as they make their presence known - very loudly - all night long. Combined with the falls - and our errant tropical storm - I was awakened just once. The majority of the time the sound was welcome "white noise." In fact, I cannot recall when I'd been so rested on a vacation! This was the nicest rental I can recall in 12+ years of travel in CONUS and abroad. (Note - Don't miss the air tours over the volcano, as you cannot see the lava from the ground, due to a recent change in lava flows. If helicopters aren't your thing, the locals have a Part 135 (airline level) service using 4 and 7-person Cessnas. As a GA pilot myself, I knew to look for these, and we much-preferred this tour to helicopter. It is also MUCH cheaper and you will see the same or more.)

We arrived late at night on our first night at Aloha Falls. It was so dark that we hardly could…read morepark our car and find our way into the house. Unfortunately, the owner had double booked the house by mistake... so we had to stay the first night in the ground-floor level of the house. So, when we walked into the house in pitch darkness to find unfinished basement-like place...We felt like we had made the biggest mistake of our lives. We were hoping it wouldn't end like a horror film with us murdered. When we woke up the next morning and went outside, we were blown away by the beautiful greenery, fruit trees, and waterfall. When we moved to the upstairs of the house, we found a beautiful spa-like home with everything you could want and more in a Hawaii getaway. Besides the slight hiccup on our first night there...the rest of the stay was wonderful. Next time we visit the Big Island, we will definitely make sure to stay at Aloha Falls again.

After my first session, I signed up for the membership right away! I've worked with Ava, Michelle, Leena, and Madeline, and every single one has been incredible at addressing my deep knots and getting to the true source of my pain in a way no one else has. The space is serene and calming with soft lighting, soothing scents, and relaxing music, and the front desk staff are always kind and thoughtful with appointment reminders and little touches like offering water after sessions. I was nervous my first visit, but everyone was so warm and professional that I felt comfortable immediately. I'm now a regular and often gift sessions to friends and family so they can experience what I have as well. I truly can't recommend them enough.

My massage from Chris was one of the best massages I have ever had, and I have been getting massages for over 30 years to help me with physical challenges I experience.

But it does have a wonderful feel and the ammenities are fantastic, inlcuding alkaline water, soap, shampoo, conditioner, self-facial tools, and more.

It actually began when I booked my stay, and due to poor communication and thoroughness (even when I went back to double check before booking my fight), there was a major snafu which the Dr. did not take responsibility for. Not to mention the terrible miscommunication in person with Dr. Baylac, which was unacceptable and no way to conduct business or speak to patrons. Additionally, this place is NOT one for healing, the environment has a massively toxic energy. The doctor should not be practicing any longer and this place is definitely not worth the money. I do not recommend this place at all.

I saw reviews on Spafinder that called it MiddleEarth and I had to see it for myself! It really is a cool looking place. I wouldn't exactly call it a day spa as I think it has 1 employee but it was a cool place to check out once. I wish Sherri had let me shower as I had soap from the bath all over my hair, as a day spa would have showers to use. Also, I didn't rent a 4WD. I was very nervous driving back and forth on the gravel road even though it's maybe for 2 miles each way since it's a rental car and not my own. Cool place, but went for an experience.
