Beautiful area. Amazing place, clean, well-stocked, relaxing and rhe views are to die for!! We all enjoyed the property and home to return soon!! Thank you for the hospitality!
What a lovely home, very clean, fully equipped, gorgeous views of the ocean, and the statues on the grounds are so beautiful. We can hardly wait to visit again!
My family and I really enjoyed staying here. The a/c units in the bedrooms made for nice cool offs after activities. We loved the area, how close it was to the beautiful botanic gardens and walking distance to a snow cone stop for the kids.
We came to Hilo to visit family for a graduation party. This tropical bungalow was a perfect home base for us. It was clean, quiet, and the view is spectacular. Val was great with communication, responding in a timely manner. Everything was perfect and we look forward to staying here again on our next trip!
What impressed us about the property was the peace and tranquility of the neighborhood. It was a very interesting privilege to have an outdoor "museum" of amazing pieces of sculpture in the adjacent property and a herd of black cows across the street!
The biggest surprise was a happy one--the magnificent sculpture garden next door. Oh, and cows across the street. The house itself is clean and modern, beautifully kept, with all the conveniences. It's an easy drive into Hilo and south, and you have a head start if you're heading up Hamakua Coast. Good roads all the way. We're eager to return!
This is our 2nd time staying at this property. We enjoy the view and the location. This is a well equipped modern, well cared for property. The yard and flowers are beautiful.
Our 9-day stay at this "tropical bungalow" - total bliss. The owners' description was spot on. We enjoyed every moment. Their home was immaculate, decorated with beautiful & comfortable furnishings, and surrounded by a gorgeous landscape of nature's beauty & sprawling garden of stunning sculptures. Total tranquility, peacefulness & stillness. A Pico Iyer experience. Looking forward to returning soon. Enjoyed meeting the owners, and Val was a real gem. Mahalo, Paul & Donna
We had a very comfortable stay. Had all the amenities to meet our needs. Very clean which was a top priority for our family. The house was well maintained. We did have to drive 20-30 minutes to downtown Hilo but we knew that when we booked the house. Worth the travel given the quality of the house.
This house is outstanding! We had the best time enjoying the huge backyard with the breathtaking views and the owners statues. Val and Hana were very responsive with everything we needed. I wish we could stay longer.. Also the location is perfect! Don't miss this place if you want to feel the true Hawaii.
Exactly what we were looking for. Outside of town in a quiet neighborhood, yet close enough to get to the sites, food, etc. How was very well appointed, clean and great communication from host. We would most certainly stay here again on our next trip.
This place was amazing! Check-in was very easy. The garage was super convenient since it rained a fair amount. The house was very clean and was fully stocked with linens and towels. The bed was very comfortable. It seemed to be challenging to find a high quality property inside Hilo so the 15 minute drive north was WELL worth it. The view of the ocean from the patio was also incredible. I have nothing but positive reviews and highly recommend this property!
This was the third time we have stayed at this rental. The home is always outstandingly clean and well-kept with every amenity you would need/want. The neighborhood is quiet and spacious with extremely friendly and helpful neighbors. But, even better is the responsiveness, support, and care provided by the owners and property managers.
This is a well designed house that I wish I owned. The house is located at an artistic neighborhood. Sitting at the lanai, I can see Pacific far away and a vast sculpture garden down the hill. I often sit at lanai enjoying the constant cool breeze.
Inside the house, I can feel that it was designed by an artist, not fancy, but practical. The owner is very thoughtful to provide household supplies. We enjoyed very much our 6 days stay here during February. Next time we come back to Hilo area, this will be our first choice.
We loved staying at this house, which is located outside Hilo in a little rural town that's not far from several of the waterfall sites and the fabulous Hawaii Tropical Botanical Gardens. The lovely sculpture park in the lawn beside the house is wonderful with gorgeous effects from sunrise and sunset lighting. Outdoor patio table & chairs makes a perfect spot to enjoy an evening cocktail. AC units worked well in the bedrooms, the living room is spacious enough for 4 adults to comfortably relax. Overall we loved our stay.
Property is large, spacious, and clean. Great view of the ocean and a fascinating sculpture garden next door. A short drive from Hilo, Akaka Falls, and enjoyable botanical gardens. Quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay. Hanna was very responsive and the check in and check out process was straightforward. T
Not only was the owner of the property so wonderful with communication and very helpful, but her home was just gorgeous. Iâve never stayed at such a clean and beautiful bed and breakfast before! I would like to emphasize that it was SO clean!! Thank you for allowing us to stay at your beautiful home! I only wish we couldâve stayed longer. Mahalo!
