Peaceful stay

This was the best place we have ever stayed in Hawaii! The location was great. So much peacefulness and solitude. It was close to so many great things to see. Our host was incredible. We will be back.

Lovely stay on a unique property

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful cottage. The amenities were just what we needed in Hilo and the location was a great base to Mauna Kea and Volcano national park. The one thing to be aware is that this property relies on off grid energy sources. We did not have any issues but only found out on arrival that a hair dryer would drain the batteries. Cooking/boiling water is through the propane bbq. The internet worked perfectly fine! Even with the rain there were enough covered spaces to shelter and just relax.

A bit of paradise

This rental was to celebrate 40 year anniversary. We’ve been to Bid Island 6x. We will come back to this little gem located in southern outskirts of Hilo. You need to rent a car any time you go to Big Island. This property is semi-private. There are residents around you, but plenty of trees and foliage so you don’t see them.. We loved the privacy/security of bedroom/powder room in the actual cottage. The queen bed was really comfortable. Loved the completely roofed outdoor spaces, shower, kitchen, and sitting areas You will hear chickens and see tropical birds. Cute green lizards hang around outside areas. Bring slippers because no shoes or sandals allowed in cottage. There are a few dvd’s, but bring some of your favorites; wi-fi is great. The Hawaiian hospitality from hosts. 4 stars.

Why they chose this property

Aloha... We purchased this property back 2014 and started clearing the land and planting Palm trees and Exotic Tropical Fruits that we love to eat and to explore new fruits, and practice sustainability. Now that the trees are bearing we can share our slice of paradise that we are proud of.
