The host was quick to respond to assist. There were a lot of amenities to use. We didn’t use anything in the kitchen but it was fully stocked with everything. The place was spacious and beautiful. Few missed cleanliness details but was addressed right away. Beautiful touches as well that were greatly appreciated.

Smaller place but well equipped kitchen, bathroom, and bedrooms. There was broken glass in the corner of the living room that we had to clean up and generally it wasn't the cleanest when we checked in.Location was good and made it easy to travel around Hilo and the east side of the island.The property owner was great and communicated quickly.

The place is closed to Hilo airport, farmer market and several mins from Target. Quiet and peaceful community environment. The host Yan Ming is responsive and helpful on answering questions. Easy check-in and out process. Would love to stay here again in next visiting in Big Island.

Work and Play in Hilo

Location is facing Wailoa River State Recreation Area with short walk to park and across great bridges of the Wailoa River. Within walking distance of many great restaurants; Hawaiian Style Cafe, Ola Brew, Kamana Kitchen, et cetera. Enjoyed location being more kama'aina than resort style. Pool and laundry were both very convenient.

Great location, quick communication

We loved this central location in Hilo close to everything. Having Wailoa Ponds in your backyard made it easy for daily walks and runs. Everything else you need is only a quick drive or walk away. The host always responded promptly when help was needed. Great stay overall!
