The location was awesome, not far from Hilo town or the Merrie Monarch Festivities that was happening all week. The vacation home location quiet, spacious & relaxing. Having a place like this really made the festival enjoyable knowing after all the party noises in town, we can come home to peace quiet.

I was looking for a quiet place to destress and this was absolutely perfect! The space was comfortable and had a lanai with a peaceful view of the water. The property is above a beautiful botanical garden which provided a symphony of music from the bird song by day and frogs at night. Gorgeous sunrises and an easy drive into Hilo and great proximity to many beautiful areas along the Hamakua coast.

Ocean view, tropical setting. Peaceful, yet convenient to Hilo, Volcano and numerous points of interest along the coast or inland. We especially loved drinking coffee or a cold beverage on the lanai listening to birdsongs and ending our days in the very comfortable bedroom.

My wife and I started looking on-line for places around Hilo when she calls me over to her computer and says "check this out, it's so unique." I'm thinking "unique" can be either very good or very bad. Well turns out this place was Fantastic for us! We're retired, having lived for over 35 years on remote property in the woods of Oregon, so a quiet place several miles from town sounded spot on.The owners are the best, being both friendly and professional from our first to last contact. The care taker we met was someone we could see ourselves just hanging out with. Everyone just had the "Aloha Spirit." Turning off the highway onto a private road we were impressed by the beautiful homes on large parcels of land. Near the end of the road was our place - a quonset hut. Opening the door it was just as pictured. Super clean and cozy. Nice appliances and comfortable bed. We enjoyed the croaking sounds at night and the birds in the morning. The lanai was wonderful for morning coffee and just hanging out after long days of taking in the sites. Loved Akaka falls and visiting the Botanical Gardens that this property happens to overlook.If we're ever back on the Big Island, this will be the first place we'll look to stay. Mahalo!

What a special place, quiet, private, and surrounded by flora of countless varieties. Sitting on the lanai you can watch the sun rise and watch the whales, all at the same time, perfect! The neighbor hood is very private and quiet. Hilo is just a short easy drive down the road and the botanical gardens an easy walk. If you're staying on the Hilo side of the island, this rental can't be beat! Highly recommended!

We stayed for 4 days in Jan. 2025. The space is big, terrific views and location. It was very clean, and comfortable.We cooked a couple of meals in the kitchen, lots of utensils, not much for spices available. Hilo is 10 minute drive, a great day trip to shop and explore. We alos went to the Volcano, and the World Tropical Garden, both worth the cost and effort.

Location is great, the view is unreal from the balcony. This place is very unique. Everything was very clean when we checked in. It has all the amenities you need to stay. Now there is no AC. But that’s ok you don’t need it. The fan keeps it cool and the door wall and window open is just enough. My husband and I sat outside every night. Loved the sound of the birds. The food on this side of the island is AMAZING. The people are so kind and always willing to answer any questions. Now we are adventurous, so we went all over the place. And stopped at all the local spots to check them out. Thank you for sharing your place with us. Aloha🌺🌴🐚

This was the second time I stayed there. Loved it both times. Would like to do something similar with my home in Eden Roc. The neighborhood is quiet, green, and beautiful. Easy to fall asleep to the music of the rain and the coquis.

View the ocean from the back deck is absolutely gorgeous, take a walk out back and look down on the most beautiful place on earth. The botanical gardens are in your backyard and the Flora is absolutely breathtaking. The only 6 miles from the town of Hilo, but a world away from everything else a wonderful place to heal. Would definitely come back in the future to stay again.

My wife and I along with our 5 year old daughter stayed here for 1 week while we explored the island. This was an excellent location. We felt secluded like we were the only ones on the island. We had an amazing view off the back lanai of the botanical gardens and the ocean in the background. Made friends with the geckos while drinking our morning coffee on the back. I highly recommend this home as we will definitely be back again.
