Hale Hilo Bay Tropical Hideaway

The house was gorgeous and comfortable. We all spent countless hours on the lanai, even while it was raining. We particularly enjoyed the birds that visited us. June was perfect to work with, easy and o make contact with and very helpful

June was an excellent host, and the home was large and well equiped for our family trip. Sadly, the weather was terrible so we never had a chance to use the pool. Beautiful views and great location ... close to the old downtown of Hilo. Special thanks to June who was incredibly accessible and helpful.

The property is beautiful. It is very spacious and is loaded with all you need. We also enjoyed the fruit trees surrounding the property. June was very attentive to our needs and tried her best to assist us. The only drawback was we were disappointed that the sauna didn't work and the pool was a bit dirty but it didn't stop the kiddos. We would definitely return. The view is amazing as is the location. Wonderful time with family.

The host was attentive to our needs and requests. The home was spacious and the property private. The pool is huge.

It was good, thank you

Simply amazing!! My dream home! Yellow is my favorite color so I was obsessed as soon as I walked in! I can’t waiiittt to be back next year for our next hula competition! Amazing host! Amazing home!

We were looking for a nice home off the beaten path, this was it. Quiet and away from town, but minutes from anything we needed, from groceries to golf, to waterfalls and beach time. Nice home, great pool, good host.

Nice place for a family.

Loved the house! Had everything we needed. Location was excellent. Being on the coast and slightly elevated led to a nice, cool breeze. The furnishings and appliances were top notch. Close to Hilo, but very private. Definitely recommend!

This property was spacious and nice for our large family. It was a great bad base for spending the day sight seeing. The air conditioning in the bedrooms made it great for sleeping. However The lack of central air and beautiful but uncomfortable furniture made the common rooms uncomfortable to use. The pool is unsuitable for anyone with little kids as the hot tub is an empty deep hole and the pool has no handrails. Great property and space but could definitely use some updating to be a 5 star property.

The house is great, spacious, and in a good location. There are a lot of things to like, yet a lot of little things that I can't figure out why the host doesn't deal with better. The dishwasher was pretty busted, the hot tub is left in disrepair, most windows in the master bedroom don't work properly, the kitchen stove top has several burners that don't work properly, there's a sauna that doesn't work, the master bathroom shower is huge with like six shower heads, but the temperature controls don't work. The kitchen could be better equipped too. The host wasn't very helpful either. Those are a lot of little complaints, as I said initially, the place is nice and it was worth to stay there. I just wish the host put a little bit of care to deal with these small problems.

We had a great time! The kitchen was nice and large to be able to cook in for our large family.

Very comfortable for our two families. The kitchen and great room was very spacious. We had our dinners on the outdoor dining table and enjoyed the beautiful weather & surroundings. Thank you Kurtis for an enjoyable stay!

We did like the location , view and amount of bedrooms. the pool was great but every time anyone got out of the pool even just after 10 min their feet and some days body if they swam to the bottom or leaned against the sides.. would be blue from the paint in the pool. we did look it up and seems the ph might be off. this was concerning. I spent a good 30 plus min cleaning out the washing machine it was so filthy moldy and slime inside of it and with a baby I ended up wiping the floors up often and they had not been cleaned. the property is lovely the fruit trees are a huge added bonus and we loved the privacy . the front area between the pool and house was rather dirty as well I spent one afternoon just trying to sweep it up. the bedding was clean as was the sinks and bathrooms. the cook top only one burner worked really well the others had been hard to start. appreciated that we only saw ants seems the other bugs are kept under control and we loved the friendly geckos in the house. seems a bit rundown but great private space . We had been mostly disappointed with the paint on the kids daily just doesn't seem good absorbing paint ."

This property was totally beautiful, clean and well equipped. I only wished I had discovered the sauna before the last night! It was disappointing that the hot tub was not functional and the pool had a hose on the bottom of it that was a bit suspect. If you don't like the sounds of nature, this is not the VRBO for you but we thoroughly enjoyed the sounds and fresh fruits on the premises. Driving directions to the home were very well done!

The property home is large and comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked. Hilo is very rainy during our visit but home was very comfortable and children loved the pool. Lots of floatables behind the home. The grounds needs a little TLC. View is hard to see as neighbors across from property...have trees which obstucts most of the view. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
