Hale Lani means "House in the Sky" in Hawaiian. In ancient Hawaiian mythology, the Hale Lani was where the heavenly beings went to rest and rejuvenate, create and dream. That is our hope for each and every one of our guests.
Hale Lani is the upstairs portion of our home. It has its own private entrance so you can fully relax and enjoy your stay.
The Hale Lani rental includes:
- On-site parking
- Private keyless entry
- Wireless Internet
- Ultra High Definition TV with Apple TV, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+ and more!
- Kitchen includes: fridge, microwave, toaster, oven, coffee maker, kettle, dishes and silverware
- Towels and linens are provided for all guests
There is also a shared laundry room with a washing machine and dryer. Laundry soap is provided free of charge.
We love Hilo and the authentic old-Hawaii vibe it breathes. Plantation era houses were built in the 1930’s and while ours has been lovingly maintained and updated, a few houses in our neighborhood need a little TLC. If you are looking for adventure, real Hawaiian experiences, fun new journeys to amazing destinations at a budget price, then this is the perfect place for you! As our house is located in a quiet residential neighborhood, we ask our guests to show the aloha spirit to those around them by keeping noise levels to a minimum and by respecting Hawaiian culture. There may be other guests in the downstairs portion of our home, so we ask each of our guests to practice aloha and respect the privacy of each space. No smoking is allowed in or around our home.
Hilo is authentic Hawaii. Beaches (black sand/rocky beaches), shopping, great restaurants, waterfalls and hiking are all within a few minutes drive from Hale Lani. You can also access helicopter and boat tours in various spots around Hilo. If you have a car, you can reach Volcanoes National Park to the south or Mauna Kea to the northwest in about an hour. A massive mall and shopping center are just around the corner from us - you can walk there it is so close! We think our place is the perfect spot to Stay, Play and enjoy Aloha!

Cute little 2 bedroom, perfect for two couples. We even had a visit from the gecko! Great location for our day trips. One minor glitch: with 2 schools nearby the traffic can get heavy around at the end of the school day, so plan accordingly.

Group of friends stayed at this property for a week and had a great time. It was the perfect size and had everything we needed.

A number of things to be aware of. (1) The unit does not have A/C. As a result, barking dogs will keep you up all night, and the roosters will have you up early. (2) The unit needs some significant attention. Worn, dirty carpets need to be replaced, there were no dressers or drawer space to unpack, and the night stands were simply crates that had been screwed to the walls. Oh, did I mention the bullet holes in the windows?!
The kitchen was reasonably stocked, and the location is great if your plans involve lots of activities on the Hilo side of the island.

We loved our stay here! The house felt really welcoming and warm. It was close to all of the incredible adventures we had planned, and Shauna was such a great host! She checked in on us and even recommended a great place to get ice cream for the kids. You won’t regret your stay here!

Location great, no local news service on TV, downstairs renters were loud. If had a/c; noise may not be a problem cause all windows would be closed. Even when other renters were inside, could still hear conversations 🙁

Nice central location. Very thoughtful and complete amenities provided throughout.
There are ear plugs provided which we found out later why... the roosters! We found it amusing and since we stayed 2 nights, not a big deal.
Great suggestions for things to do and places to eat. We followed quite a few and had a great time!
One note, no AC in the unit. Hot during the day time but tolerable since they have nice fans throughout the house and we were out most of the day. House cooled down in the evening nicely.
