Renting our place is a business, but it's also fun. We are your private hosts and we own and rent just this place and another suite at our home 7 miles from Hilo. Part of the fun is sharing something (when you book) about yourselves and/or your visit to the islands. We look forward to your visit!

This is a great apartment with a lovely pool and close access to a gorgeous beach. It is perfect for a family. The balcony overlooking the ocean was fantastic. We would stay here again!

We loved our stay in this condo! We were very happy with the cleanliness and location. The property manager checked on us to make sure we got in ok and was available in case we needed anything. The view from the balcony is breathtaking! Located right on Carlsmith Beach, you don’t even have to leave unless you want to! Will definitely stay here again and would recommend to others. No issues at all.

We stayed 7 days in this unit. We were pleased with everything. I found the manager/ owner to be very helpful and accommodating. There was a book in the condo that made all the difference to us in exploring Hilo and the rest of the island. So glad I decided to take a look at it. There were more than adequate supplies available for our use. Be aware that the washer and dryer are coin operated so you will need lots of quarters. Beautiful view.

The location was convenient. The view was amazing. Had a little trouble sleeping due to the noise of the frogs and a rooster that woke us up every morning at 524am. The condo was amazing other than that. We felt very safe and loved that we were only 50ft from the water...aaaannndddd we got to swim with the sea turtles. Amazing.

Unit had everything we needed for our stay. Beautiful views and lovely places to swim or to take a pleasant walk. Would stay here again. Loved that it had an elevator.

We loved the Hilo side of the island so much and this was a great spot to take it all in. The condo has everything you need. We liked the privacy and security factors. Randall was easy to communicate with and the residents at Mauna Loa Shores were friendly and helpful. It’s not a fancy place but the price definitely reflects that.
We loved watching whales from the lanai and the activity of Carlsmith right below. It really is as close as it looks, actually closer. Would definitely stay here again!

We loved staying here; we could hear the ocean waves day and night. The ocean is practically in your backyard at this place and we enjoyed swimming at the park several times. We saw turtles every time we went down to the park/ocean.
There is a nice restaurant within walking distance that is open for dinner (Wed-Sun I believe). The apartment is a short drive from downtown Hilo and convenient to other services. We would stay here again.

Great views from both sides of the apartment. Excellent location. Right by a nice beach where we saw green turtles. Close to town. Quiet and safe place. Would enjoy staying there again.

The views from the lanai alone make this spot worth the trip. The fact that the condo itself is gorgeous, and fully loaded with everything you’d need to settle in and make it your home away from home was a total bonus.
20 seconds out the back is some amazing snorkelling in a protected little bay, and you’d literally have to go out of your way NOT to see a variety of gorgeous turtles.
We are already planning our return to the Hilo area, and are absolutely going to come back here.
