About the host
Hosted by Lee Goodwin
We are a retired couple from the S.F. Bay Area . I was a realtor and Ric was a builder. We have travelled extensively and the big island called to us as a place to spend more time. As longtime short term rental hosts in the Bay Area we decided to create a space of our own in Hilo. We as traveler's always enjoy vacation rentals that are clean, comfy and affordable . We hope that our Hilo condo will be that place for you when you visit !
Why they chose this property
The Hilo side of the island is the wet side , which means it’s tropical and lush. The access to the bay ocean is so easy and safe . Carl Smith park is literally right out our back door. An amazing spot for protected swimming ( there is a lifeguard), barbecuing, exploring the lagoons , floating We are close to downtown Hilo with access to restaurants, shopping and cultural events.
What makes this property unique
It is on the top floor of our building which provides for privacy , vaulted ceilings and a view that is expansive and tropical. It so easy to wile a way the hours just relaxing and enjoying the view.
