Very convenient
The location was perfect and close to everything. The house was very clean, well-equipped, and perfect for our family. The AC system kept us comfortable throughout the day. And having a washer and dryer is always a plus. Mahalo for sharing your home with us!

Perfect all around
Our stay here was perfect. The rooms and furnishings are comfortable, and the kitchen offered more than we would ever need. Walking to downtown was a pleasant few minutes, enjoying a beautiful river along the way. Our host was extremely accommodating and a pleasure to work with, and she provided great weather as a bonus. We met great neighbors on our walks. And with the county's great bus service, we never needed a car. We're hoping for a return visit soon.

Hilo Happy Place
This a wonderful private getaway experience for us. The home was comfortable and completely furnished with everything we needed to make the stay worthwhile. Very clean, spacious bed rooms, and a living room we could dance in and watch our favorite movies and sports. Easy accessible and just blocks away from central Hilo town. We even had pizza delivered. Special touches such as Hawaiian decorations and inspiring sayings and the internet/wifi access made contact to home available when needed. Quiet and clean with convenient parking for two vehicles topped it off. Highly recommended!

The house was perfectly located—just a 5 minute walk down the road from Bayfronts numerous shops and eateries. The daily Farmers Market located at the end of the strip for fresh local produce and flowers is a must! Keaukahas stretch of beautiful beaches and areas to swim in refreshing waters is only a 10 minute drive. And the airport is less than 7 minutes away by car. The house had all we needed and was very clean and cozy. We loved waking up and looking out the kitchen window at the neighbors lush plants growing. It was the ideal house to disconnect and find peace. I would definitely recommend and stay here on my next visit to Hilo!
