Perfection!

We loved this house! Two sisters and their husband’s stayed here, ages 67-74. The house was comfortable, spotless, well equipped and our check in instructions and info about the house were impeccable. We enjoyed the back patio area for morning coffee and enjoying the sun. The heavy duty blender helped create some delicious daiquiris! The beds were very comfortable and we all slept well.The landscaping was primitive but the gardener in me delighted in the treasures we found- pineapple, blooming anthurium and several trees and bushes, including a very tall cactus at the driveway edge. We would definitely choose this place for another trip to Paradise!

Shopping during the Merrie Monarch week

The 3 bedroom rental was perfect for us three ladies and the distance from the airport to the host rental is similar to my home island of Kauai, from my house to the main town of Lihue.I would recommend my friends if they are looking for a place during the week of the Merrie Monarch festivities, they should look into this rental property listed on VRBO.

Perfect Location

This was our first trip to Hawaii so we had no idea about the area or what to expect about anything at all. We enjoyed every last moment, and this house was the perfect home base for us. We found the house just as described, very clean and comfortable. The neighborhood was peaceful and lovely. There was plenty of shopping and restaurants close to us, though we did make a few trips to the Kona side of the island for some activities, not that there wasn’t plenty to do on the Hilo side. That was a bit of a ride, but the island is so beautiful it’s really not a problem! I would definitely stay at this property again.

I rented this property for my daughter and her family would have a comfortable place to relax. My daughter stated that there was plenty of room for her family and everyone had space to relax in. Property was easy to find and was away from busy streets and yet still close to many places of interest and shopping. When my family comes in the future I will definitely rent this house again.

Good location, quiet neighborhood

Home was in a good location in a quiet & beautiful neighborhood. The size of the house was perfect for our group of 7 people and very clean. I loved that they had extra items for their guests like flashlights, coolers, games, etc. We stayed in August and it got quite hot without AC. The host has fans in every room to help combat the heat which would probably help more in months outside of summer. Overall this is a great place to stay on the Hilo side.

The owner was very good at communicating the instructions to me. He informed me that the property will be hard to find initially in the dark. I made sure to arrive to the property before dark. I inquired about a washer and dryer at this property. Derrick said there is a washer/dryer outside near the carport. Our travel party consisted of 4 adults and two children, under 10 yrs old. The place was good for us. We were ending our vacation with 3 nights in Hilo, after being in Kona. Upon arriving, one person had to open the chain-link gate to so the car can get in. The property (yards) is spacious with plants. You can hear the tiny frogs at night, they sound like birds. The check-in was easy with the key pad. The house was stuffy initially. We had to open the windows and turn on the fan. There is no air conditioner in the house. The bedrooms were nicely decorated. The beds were comfortable. The bathroom did not have shampoo, conditioner, and body soap. The house did have hand soap. The hallway bathroom always felt stuffy to me. We didn't really get to cook since we only had 3 nights and our schedule was tight with sightseeing (water falls, ziplining, and Volcanoes National Park). We did heat up our leftovers and made coffee that the owner provided. The microwave was cool because it had a rack in there. The television has movies, but we didn't really have time to watch too much tv at night.

I just want to say thank you for the three days. If I had seen the listing I would’ve booked it for the two in a half weeks we were staying. This is a great place to stay with your family they provided everything which was great. The beds were comfy, the house is clean and great. Location was easy to find but we are from Hawaii so that could be why it was easy. 10/10 recommend.

Convenient location to Hawaii Volcanoes Natl Park

We stayed for 4 nights on this side of the island to go to the national park and explore around Hilo. This house is very clean and in a nice quiet neighborhood. The fans cool it off in the night fairly quickly, but it can get pretty hot in the day without an AC. Great communication from the owner leading up to the trip.

Perfectly located

We chose this property due to it's proximity to Volcanos NP. It was also a great "jumping off" point for lots of places on the island. Close to Hilo for restaurants and groceries. The property itself wad exactly as described. I was concerned that there would be no AC, but there are ceiling fans in every room and with the windows open, it was the perfect temp. Would definitely recommend.

Inside was very clean. Kitchen was very modern. Outdoors the yard was unkempt and had tall weeds, surrounded by unmaintained bushes and trees. It was not a pleasing outdoor environment. Indoors was good and worth the price we paid. We would not sit outdoors given the condition of the yard.

Great East Side Stay on the Big Island

Nice clean updated home near Keaau (Hawaiian Paradise Park). Quiet neighborhood. Centrally located between Hilo and Volcano National Park made for a great place to explore the east side of the island. Hilo Farmers Market was worth checking out. Rainbow Falls was nearby as well. Volcano National Park was an awesome experience. Shopped at local grocery store and cooked on the grill on the back porch. If you're planning a trip to this part of the Big Island, I can recommend this property. Check out Wailuku Brew Works in Keaau for some excellent offerings.
