Easy check in/entrance. Lots of amenities. Nice peaceful neighborhood. Very close to everything on Hilo side.
Lots of space to spread out. LARGE kitchen space. Beds very comfortable 3 bathrooms! Deck was large frog/birds serenading was enjoyed by all.
We like it that it was close to everything, had all the amenities you would need and the property was huge. But there were a few things that made me not give a 5 star. The 3rd bathroom was not convenient. It was in the lowest level of the house in a corner. So the 3 bedrooms including the master had to share 1 bathroom. I like to have my own bathroom so my husband and I had to take the room with a twin bed in it. That room was small and some of the window panes were broken so we could not close it. We had to hear the frogs making noise all night long. Also, one of the bathrooms were not clean and the fridge had a few stains that were not cleaned. Other than that, it was a good place for us to stay for a few days.
This was a nice home base for our adventures on the Hilo side of the island. Great communication with Suzy, cozy beds and lovely beach gear.
House was beautiful, spacious and well stocked with everything you need to your stay, including beach chairs and boogie boards (we did not need them this trip but was nice to have available). It is an older home but is well cared for with some updates. We had a very lovely, comfortable stay.
Lovely setting with lots of birds singing. Host had lots of helpful suggestions about fun and food. Would definitely come again.
We had a fantastic time staying here. Both the house and the yard are beautiful. My young boys loved playing ping pong and hanging out in the treehouse. They also loved finding fruit, frogs, and geckos in the yard. Wonderful property.
Everything about this home is five star. It is comfortable, beautifully decorated and equipped with anything we could possibly need. The lanai is the perfect place to have your morning coffee while enjoying the views. The downstairs game room/workout area was wonderful. The yard was perfect for the kids to play in. It is enclosed (except for the entrance of the driveway) and the kids are safe to play and run. We are truly thankful for a place we could bring our family, be in Hawaii and really enjoy the things the island has to offer that you miss staying at a hotel. Book this home, I promise you will be thankful you did!!
Another adult coach/chaperone and I stayed here with our youth basketball team. It was very spacious and accommodating to our entire group. The kitchen is large but needs some updated cookware. Downstairs has a ping pong table and is a good place for the kids to hangout. It is a large, older home so there are some minor repairs needed throughout the home but overall it was functional. The property manager was very prompt in responding to our questions and needs. We would definitely consider renting this home in the future.
This was a typical traditional Hilo home. It reminded me of my grandparent's house. It was very clean and had an ample supply of towels and blankets (it can get cold). The property was close to the center of town (5 minutes) but tucked away in the cool, foresty hillside. The grounds were lovely and the tangerines from the tree were juicy and sweet. We used this as a hub for our fishing and golfing activities and ate out most of the time. We bought poke and spent a nice lunch time on the deck. It was a perfect getaway from Honolulu.
The home is full of love and was well stocked for a Hawai'i holiday! The entire space was comfortable, clean, and had a great energy. Thank you~
We were exploring big island with our family (4 adults and 3 kids) and enjoyed the stay. The lawn, table tennis and patio were very much enjoyed by our kids.
