Great local stay with amazing view in Hilo!

Marie was a super friendly host! Our check in was smooth and the suite we rented from her was clean and had what we needed. This is a separate suite on her property. The observation deck in the yard was the best to view sunrise and sunset watching surfers catch their waves. Bring earplugs as the coqui frogs get loud and sounds like non stop chirping.

Loved this place!

This was a wonderful place (it’s an addition connected to the owner’s home) in a great location just north of Hilo. The owners were very nice and the observation deck was great to watch for whales and look at the surfers.It was great to fall asleep listening to the frogs and waking up to the birds. The gardens and plants around the house were amazing.Thank you so much!

Centrally Located Hilo Casita

Located just yards from the Highway this rental would be a welcome haven to any MAGA American. The exterior is festooned with multiple Trump flags, Trump posters and an actual 7’ inflatable Trump which remains lighted all night. The interior was clean and the hosts polite. Certainly misleading listing photos.

This was a great spot in Hilo. We were visiting friends and busy touring the island. So, the guest house worked great for the 2 of us. We were able to sit on observation deck and it was lovely!! Would stay here again.

A great place close to Hilo

This place has a very rustic vibe, almost like staying in a cabin. The owners are very friendly and so are their cats. We loved watching the surfers from the lookout after a long day of exploring. The only thing we missed was a fridge with a real freezer compartment, but that was only a minor inconvenience. We would stay here again.
