This condo was beautiful, and nicely updated. It had all that you needed in the kitchen. They have chairs, beach towels, and a cooler to use. The view was out over the lagoon and a park. The building is old, but this condo is new, and the elevators(3 of them) are super fast. The only complaint I have was the second bedroom got full of gnats that I had to sweep up. We used this as our dressing room, so it wasn't a bother. No where else in the condo was that an issue. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

From booking to check out the whole process was seamless.
We enjoyed exploring beautiful Hilo from this location, including Rainbow and Akaka falls, volcanoes national park and the farmers markets.
Hilo Burger Joint, Cafe Pesto, Nector cafe, Kuhio Grille - Home Of The Famous 1lb Laulau were all delicious places within walking distance that we ate at and the service was great.
We enjoyed beverage on the balcony each evening overlooking the lagoon and our girls loved the ducks and koi fish at the pond. Would definitely recommend staying here. Thankyou! From Australia :)

Where do I begin, this rental property was exactly what we needed during our stay in Hilo. It was in a quiet part of town, yet, still walking distance to so many awesome sites. It was super clean and had all the cooking utensils and wares we could ever ask for. The host was always prompt when we had questions and the property was always secure thanks to the guards in the lobby. This property made our stay in Hilo even better. The view of the lagoon was breathtaking, especially if you were up early enough to catch the sunrise. There is a reason this property is a 10/10. Thank you so much for having us.

This condo is immaculate. Building is older. However, security on duty 24/7. Unit is on 7th floor and elevator is fast. Assigned parking. Cooler and freezer packs provided which made it easy to pack a lunch and snacks daily for exploring. Washer/dryer is down the hall and uses quarters which are easy to get in security office. Laundry was not an issue and certainly easier than if staying in a hotel. Most importantly, the beds were so comfortable and unit quiet. We slept well every night. We would stay here again.

Loved the location over a beautiful quiet lagoon. Super clean and updated and fully stocked. It had all the comfort & details of a home away from home, with updated kitchen and bathroom luxuries. The bldg was quiet and clean, it was great being in an end unit. The beds & pillows were SO comfortable and towels fluffy and new. Would highly recommend! All of Terry’s recommendations were helpful for places to eat and things to do.
Hilo is a quaint little beach town, nothing flashy or commercial like the other islands and Kona. People are very friendly and appreciate the visitors. So many beautiful gardens, drives & walking trails thru lush forests and waterfalls to discover. Use the guide books so you don’t pass them up!

We enjoyed the proximity to the airport, area restaurants. The pool was so refreshing. Unit was so cute and clean. Felt like home. Property itself needs some updating but had a great stay. Terry was awesome and responsive and gave great recommendations for things to do.

This place is even nicer in person. After seeing the modern decor, quality furnishings and appliances, and fully stocked kitchen, we also noticed how clean it was! Spotless. This made for a thoroughly comfortable and enjoyable trip. The other listings mentioned how the building itself was older, and yes, it is, but the inside of this condo was new, clean, and so comfortable. Great location as well. The host was readily available for any questions and provided a nice list of things to do in Hilo, most of which we did! Great stay!

Beautiful place, very well appointed and maintained. The setup with 2 bedrooms separated by living room was ideal! Smallish living room, but we only had two people, so it was OK as we didn't spend much time at the unit. Walking distance to great latte and breakfast sandwiches (Just Cruisin). Laundry facilities on each floor was very handy, covered parking was great. Would definitely stay again.

As you drive up to the property and see the “Lagoon tower,” it looks dated and a bit worn. But most of Hilo town looks the same. Humidity and rain will do that. But as you step foot inside the condo that impression leaves your mind. The owner has tastfuly modernized this unit. It has everything you could need. Beds were very comfortable. TV and cable in all the rooms. From the 7th floor the balcony views overlooking the beautiful garden and lakes are breathtaking. I looked forward to my early morning coffee watching the sunrise casting reflected light on the water. The fish jumping, water birds everywhere were a joy. As I write this review, on the balcony, a light rain is falling and the morning sun is peaking through the clouds. Love a good sun shower!
The Lagoon tower is centrally located in Hilo. Easy drive or walk pretty much anywhere. If your going to visit Hilo town or explore the beauty of the East side, this condo is amazing. Thank you Terry for sharing your home.

We have stayed at multiple locations in Hilo, hotels, or VRBOs, and nothing even comes close to the cleanliness, beauty, and location of this 2-bedroom unit. This unit has been tastefully updated with modern amenities, is extremely clean, and well-stocked. The location is extremely safe, quiet, and central to everything in Hilo. In the future, this is our go-to accommodation.
Terry thank you for sharing your amazing condo.
