"Such a nice and cozy spot in a beautiful area of Hilo. So close to the main part of town but the property feels like you’re in your own jungle oasis right next to the ocean. The staff was always available and very accommodating to us and our toddler. We would love to come back to Hilo and specifically stay here again. "

"I had a wonderful stay here. Property was easy to find, clean & quiet. The AC worked great and had the most comfy bed & pillows I have ever slept on! I would definitely stay here again. "
"Clean and private cabin within earshot of waterfall and a million coqui frogs. Friendly and helpful staff provided all we needed for a relaxing stay. The only negative we experienced was the poor WiFi, which we needed for trip planning and checkout."
"Rooms on house share a bathroom. Area has solar electrical so they restrict usage after dark as they do not store it well. Just know what you will be getting "

"If I could rate this condo higher than 5 stars, I would. My wife and I are extremely picky about cleanliness when staying in VRBO’s, hotels, etc. We were very pleased with how clean the condo was. My wife and I spent a week on the Big Island, splitting our time between Hilo and Kona. After staying in this condo, I wish we had spent the entire week in Hilo. We loved the condo, loved Hilo, and have zero complaints. We will definitely stay at this same condo the next time we visit Hawaii. "

"This was our second time here, the first being one week in April 2025. Once again we appreciated the serene views & two lanais overlooking Wailoa State Park, the fully stocked kitchen, the portable cooler & pool towels (for picnics) & the host's notebook of clear, thorough instructions re: parking space, evening security protocols & keys, laundry room down the hall, recommendations for restaurants, sightseeing, etc. A gem of a location for walking into town, park enjoyment & sightseeing " headquarters". It was excellent for our intentional combo: 50 % Relaxation, reading, napping, walking 50 % excursions! "
"This spot was perfect ... Beautiful views ... Comfortable beds ... & Clean!!! Easy to get to shopping, restaurants, beaches, Volcanoes Park & Mauna Kea ... Everything we needed for this trip was right there ... Would definitely stay again! "
