Really sweet house in a cool spot. The owners have clearly put work into keeping a beautifully maintained house. The location is classic Hilo, and the beach that is 1 minute away is fun for playtime and turtle watching. Fantastic jumping off point to head up to see the volcano too.

This place was incredible. The short walk to basically a private beach was amazing. Enough sand for littles to play! The house was perfect!! Everything we needed. BUT the outdoor area was the best thing overall. Our weather wasn’t the best and the pavilion with the outdoor bathroom and shower were lifesavers! We would stay here again in a heart beat!

The hosts are amazing in helping any and all things!! They also explained the funny configuration to us before we committed to the property…. Though they have done the best possible it’s still a bit funny-The beds were comfy! The bedrooms down stairs a bit tight. The area is nice and quiet and right near the coast- location is great!

Glad you had a great time on our side of the island and at our beach home and thank you for the wonderful thoughts you shared in our guest book. I agree staying at a resort is nice but if you want a special island experience staying at a local vacation home can't be beat!!

Quiet and close to town and beaches

Our family really enjoyed our Hilo stay. The property is in a quiet neighborhood close to the water and a 5 minute drive into Hilo. We were impressed with the condition and efficiency of the home. Everything we needed (and more!) was available in the home, plus beach gear outside. We’ll be back!

Wonderful Hawai’i House

Wonderful Hawaiian house in a great location. Walk a couple of minutes to the water! Convenient to sites, restaurants/food, downtown, airport (but NO airport noise) but tucked away with a beautiful private yard to relax in. House was very clean with nice Hawaiian decor - the perfect set up for us and our adult kids. Well stocked with the basics - very comfortable. Loved having breakfast on the lanai. Great place to spend some time in Hilo and the Big Island.

Perfect set up!

The house and studio worked out perfectly for our family trip to attend our daughter's graduation from UH Hilo. The separate studio unit allowed grandparents a place to relax in while the younger adults utilized the gazebo. The outside bathroom and shower were super convenient when returning from the beach. This is our second time staying at this vrbo and would definitely book it again!

Outstanding beach house

When we opened the front door we were home!!! How often can you have breakfast on a lanai overlooking a pond with two wild ducks swimming around, or sit on a different lanai in the afternoon listening to the chirping of birds. Not to mention walking access to four beaches, one at the end of the street. The house itself was beautifully equipped and exuded warmth. The bed was very comfortable. Highly recommended.

Perfect start to our week

This was the perfect place for us to start our week on The Big Island. It was exactly as advertised, no surprises. Super convenient to getting around Hilo and the East side of the island. Great proximity to the beach. The lanai was a game changer. It was pretty rainy while we were there, but we could sit on the lanai and enjoy the sounds of the jungle comfortably. The kitchen was appointed nicely. The coffee/bananas/sweet rolls were a great touch. Thanks, Claudia!! We'll be back.

This cottage is in a beautiful location. Walkable to two area beachside parks with breathtaking views. We also swam and it was amazing. The home is cozy and in a good location for all areas of Hilo and going up to Volcanoes National Park. We do recommend staying here.

Wonderful stay!

The house is lovely: immaculate, comfortable, quiet, and very thoughtfully appointed. The owners have thought of every detail, and we were even greeted with fresh flowers and a welcome basket. The outside space is fabulous, and the home is right down the street from a small beach. Highly recommended!

Nice clean property in Hilo

The house was super clean and I am super picky about cleanliness. The beds were comfortable and the owner was nice enough to leave cookies and rainbow bread for our arrival. It is small—but it was fine for 3 nights to see the sights in Hilo and Volcanos National Park. The upstairs unit is a separate apartment with a separate entrance. My 18 year old daughter stayed there and it was nice so we could have our own space. House is close to everything in Hilo but tucked away to feel private. It was about 40 minutes from Volcanos National Park.

Home away from home...with all the amenities

We had a terrific time at this vacation property, hosted by Claudia (which was her family's home at one point). We were greeted with fresh Hawaiian flowers in both units, and local breads (delicious). Made us feel right at home. The vacation home is a 2 level unit with their individual front doors, but a staircase (outside ) that connects them. The upstairs has a real kitchen, while the lower level has a breakfast kitchen (no stove) but a great toaster and microwave. The bathroom in the lower level was very small, but the rest of the place, location, amenities made up for that 1 aspect. Each level had all the amenities from cutting boards, rice cooker, and other kitchen items. Outside, they had beach chairs, tatami mats, noodles, water shoes in a variety of sizes, goggles, masks and much more. There is an outside lanai that was our gathering spot, especially in the afternoon for cards. The bugs do come out around 5pm, so make sure to put on bug spray. Wait for the frogs to serenade you at night...and show up close to your door. The home is just 2 houses away from the water. And 5 more beach parks that offer snorkeling were within 2 miles of the house. It was very conveniently located. My parents raved about the house, and kept comparing our next vacation spot to Claudia's home. Thank you Claudia for being such a gracious host and providing all the amenities we needed.

Hilo Holiday

Lovely tropical property. Very comfortable for our party. The upstairs & downstairs aren't connected on the inside, so it adds a bit of privacy for couples traveling together. The is another studio on the property, so you may see other visitors during your stay & you share the washer/dryer with them. Owner attentive to messages & requests. Comfy mattresses (wobbly bed frames), nice kitchen set-up. Good seating arrangements. Close to a lovely, rocky beach & good snorkeling down the road at Richardson Beach Park.

Great place

This little house was perfect for our stay! We enjoyed the close walk to the beach and the beautiful outside. We have a 1&2 year old and even though they wanted to play and get into everything they loved It! Claudia was so sweet every time I talked about to her. If the tv isn’t working.. read the big sign telling you how to fix it! Learned this the night before we left but it was our own fault for not seeing the sign! Thanks again Claudia!

Amazing Stay!!!

Had the best time in this very clean and updated house. It had all the amenities we could need and the fresh flowers and welcome amenities where a great touch to welcome us. Nights on the patio having dinner were perfect and morning coffee was even better. Next time i’m in Hilo i’ll stay again.
