Property Description
Charming beach cottage with commanding ocean view of the best beach on the east side of Hawaii! Waiuli (Richardsons Beach) is the best for swimming, surfing, and snorkeling. What's the best thing about it? It's right across the street! Grab a mask and snorkel (there's plenty of fun beach gear at the house to use!) and go explore the cove! Wish to just relax and lay in the shade? There's a great area behind the house to hang out or bbq while watching the ocean. Perfect for families, groups or a nice couple get-away!

This location and the home were amazing!!! The host was incredibly responsive and helpful with all of our questions. The girls loved the first floor and we loved having a fully stocked kitchen and beach supplies.

We stayed 5 nights at Waiuli Cottage with grandparents and our 2 children and the space was perfect for us. Our family of 4 stayed in the downstairs unit and the grandparents took the upstairs. Both were very spacious. The home has everything you will ever need.The hosts were awesome and very accommodating. We met Michele at her boutique and she was very kind and took some time to talk with us. You could tell she loves sharing her home with others.The home is set between Waiuli and Richardson's Ocean Park. I enjoyed snorkeling at Richardson's and grandpa went fishing everyday across the street. It was a great base for Volcanos National Park, Akala Falls and Downtown Hilo.Thank you for hosting us. We had a wonderful stay.

This little bungalow is perfect! It is located right across the street from a public beach/park. The snorkeling and swimming there was just fine and we saw several honu just hanging out. There is a lovely, screened in lanai where you can sit and enjoy your morning coffee or just sit and enjoy the scenery. There is a bedroom/bathroom upstairs and 2 sofas that can be used as beds, as well as a basement with a queen sized bed and a full bathroom. There is also a nice shower outside with hot and cold water. The owners were very responsive when we had questions. This is not a fancy resort, it is a lovely, comfortable and relaxing place to enjoy the Hilo side of the island. Dinner recommendations-Seaside, right down the road. Delicious!!

We have stayed here before and it was better than advertised. The host is amazing and did so many extra things for us. We saw many sea turtles, NeNe geese, Humpback whales breaching and much more. The each house is fully equipped with anything you might want.We will be back soon :-)

When we opened the door we felt "at Home". Neat, well stocked and comfortable. The owner visited briefly which was so pleasant. Location in Hilo is perfect, sleep to the sound of the ocean and wake up to a glorious sunrise. So many wonderful places to eat and shop in Hilo. We stayed a week and enjoyed every day.

We had three generations in this little house and it worked out great. It was close to beach and snorkeling. It was close to Hilo for convenience, but far away enough for quiet. The host was helpful. I couldn't recommend it more.
