Also subject to our standard contract provisions.

Starting Jan 1, 2022 our County has added an additional 3% tax due to the rising costs associated with keeping our County functioning properly.  As you know, this has been a stressful fee year for our County due to the lost revenue from the Volcano and now the Pandemic, so our County needs this to survive and provide needed services.  Our contract states that the tax is based in the taxes when your visit actually comes, so if you are arriving after Jan 1,  We are adding this additional 3% on your rent.  Mahalo for your understanding.
The condo features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a sofa bed.

We had an amazing stay at this condo. It was very clean and well organized, with everything we might need to make our stay comfortable. The view was absolutely fantastic. We enjoyed the easy walk to the lagoon to snorkel, and enjoyed stopping to admire the beautiful flowers. The hosts were very nice and very quick with communication. We hope to be back someday!

This property was in a beautiful location. Assigned parking was wonderful. There was a little confusion on what the Apt. Number was but the manager cleared that up. It was a little dated in the furnishings but everything was clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again. The snorkeling equipment was appreciated. Thank you for sharing with me.

Wow! What a fantastic spot to spend four nights in Hilo. The waves lulling you to sleep, walk out the back early to swim with turtles, quick trip up mountain to see volcano..... they are setting the bar high. For everywhere else. Don't miss walking Japanese gardens just down street or jungle paths next to room! We got to see Pele's glowing eyes using binoculars so generously loaned. Beautifully furnished, thank you!

This was our 4th stay at the Mauna Loa Shores. The direct access to the shore with the Carlsmith Beach Park is one of the most appreciated amenities of this location. The apartments are fully equipped and very professionell and friendly managed by Terry. The transfer from the airport takes only a 10 minutes ride, all kind of shopping and a few restaurants are within a 5 min drive. Many attractions of Big Island are easy to reach within a one hour drive. We will return for shore.
