Beautiful view, quiet location

The property is in a great location. We loved being next to the beach park with the beautiful view. Very well equipped kitchen. Very nice to have AC in the bedroom, and we had enough breeze and fans to stay cool in the rest of the unit. Our host even messaged us one evening to let us know that the volcano was active. Lovely stay!

Beautiful condo, amazing location and view

This is the second time we've stayed in this condo. The first time was 2015 and i loved it so much we had to return. Nice remodel since we were there. It is clean and spacious with a well stocked kitchen if you want to cook. I love going out every morning and swimming at Carlsmith Park with the sea turtles. The park does get busy in the afternoon but was quiet again by 4 or so. Convenient location to Volcanoes National Park, akaka falls and more. lady.

Relaxing getaway

This unit was a nicely appointed remodel in an older building. The view was beautiful, looking out over the gardens, pool and Carlsmith Park. It was very clean and comfortable, close to downtown and the airport. Within the building, each floor had one washer and dryer, most all were in disrepair and the pool was closed, no fault to the individual unit. Overall, very casual, quiet and relaxing place with a beautiful screened in balcony, furnished nicely.

The apartment was nicely decorated with beautiful views of the ocean. The building itself is older but clean. We were able to snorkel in the bay and saw multiple turtles! Thank you for a great stay!

Walking distance to a wonderful little beach park

A very nice place to stay. The view was so nice from the lanai, overlooking Carlsmith beach park. Having an air conditioner in the main bedroom was a plus

Great location

Beautiful views of the ocean from the lanai, very peaceful spot to read a book or just enjoy the scenery and cool breezes. Great little swimming spot next door and pretty much everything you needed was provided. Our family really enjoyed our time here!

Nice location

This was the most well stocked place we’ve ever stayed in. It overlooks Carlsmith Beach, which we started each day with swimming/snorkeling. Enjoyed the screened in patio and watching the kitties and roosters. There isn’t air conditioning but I know a lot of places don’t have it. The owner is very thoughtful with leaving chocolates and shell necklaces. We would definitely go back.

Lovely property 10min east of downtown Hilo

The pictures accurately reflect this nice condo immediately next door to great snorkeling at Carlsmith Beach Park. We loved the open lanai with ocean views. When I booked I requested an early check-in which the property manager said would be no problem. However, she then texted me the day before our arrival to tell me this wasn't possible. When I complained she then made arrangements to get us in an hour early. We were also given the wrong name for the key lock box (Honu Ekahi given instead of Honu Elua) but these were overall not big deals. Communication with property manager Iliahi was easy through the VRBO app text and she responded promptly. Overall, this is a lovely condo to use as a base to explore the East side of the Big Island. Bring quarters if you plan to do laundry! The laundry is outside the condo and costs $2.25 for wash and $2.25 for dry.
