The room was tastefully furnished, clean and easily accessible.The location convenient for getting to town and out and about. The host very attentive, welcoming and helpful.
We had a lovely stay at this wonderful place. Conveniently located within a few minutes of downtown Hilo, yet evenings are very peaceful! We highly recommended staying here.
Host provided great communication and assistance. Rental is a unique and very clean unit and is located within a nice, somewhat secluded neighborhood. Would definitely stay here again without hesitation.
We loved this stay. Every detail of the room was perfect. Location was great for access to Hilo, Akaka Falls, Mauna Kea and Volcanoes National Park. The host was welcoming and had a great list of restaurants and things to do. Not sure if we will be lucky enough to return to Hilo in the future, but we would absolutely stay here again if we do.
Thank you Tanner and Hannah for allowing us to stay at your beautiful home, and for being such amazing hosts. Your clean and comfortable room truly was an oasis after a fun day of exploring the area. Getting to see nearby Kilauea erupt truly was a once in a lifetime event for us. Thank you for helping us be prepared for the event!
My wife and I both really enjoyed our stay here. The room was both private and convenient in a beautiful neighborhood. Hannah( the host) met us at check in and was friendly and helpful throughout the stay.
I’m not sure I can completely express how much staying here meant to us. This unit helped make our trip as wonderful as it could possibly be. The unit is bright and thoughtfully and beautifully designed and decorated. It is surrounded by lush greenery and beautiful flowers on the property, and it was neat and clean as can be.The owners are lovely and were so welcoming and helpful, especially with information and suggestions about seeing the current eruption at Kilauea. The check in and check out were easy and seamless.We had a wonderful visit to the Hilo side and this unit was a perfect place to rest and recharge from the days adventures. Thank you so much!

Mahalo for choosing to stay with us and all your praises! We are so happy that you enjoyed our slice of paradise as much as we do!
Quiet, end of the road stay, only minutes from downtown Hilo, within earshot of waterfalls. Clean room, nice shower, excellent hosts…we will stay again when in town.
My husband and son were in town for a quick visit to the University. We had great communication and checking in was easy. This beautiful spot to stay if you are visiting.
Good clean room, great view, excellent location. All the things you need for a short stay. Host was helpful and informational. We had a great time and would highly recommend to others.

My partner Tanner and I love going off adventuring with our mountain dog Soula. Most of our time is spent outside exploring new places and forcing our nap happy doggo to exercise.
