Secluded and beautiful and right on the beach

We only stayed for two nights while we explored the big island. Wish we could have stayed longer, location right on the beach, for snorkeling, and privacy. Secure parking, and wonderful balcony with a view. Hosts were great.

Great accommodations

Lovely stay. Easy walk to the beach. Beautiful views. Wonderful property manager. This unit overlooks Onekahakaha Beach Park parking lot and then the beach is right in the very short distance. This is a public park - which has its separate considerations, especially on the weekends when family and friends gather there. I would still choose this place. It’s fantastic..

Great find! Felt like a treehouse beach house

This is an awesome location, 5 minutes from town, and right next to the best beach parks. Parking is great as well. The unit is super clean, comfortable and updated. Would definitely stay here again. The hosts are very friendly and helpful as well. Perfect spot in Hilo

Hilo Paradise!

This lovely place was just what we were looking for! It was central to the places we wanted to visit like the chocolate farm and vanilla farm, and Kilauea treated us to a lava show while we were there that was sooo awesome! The room itself was so well designed and had such beautiful fixtures and accents. The fully screened lanai was perfect for relaxing with coffee each morning and listening to the nature sounds of the island at night. Chris, our host, was the best. Check-in was so easy and access to the property and room for the week that we were there was so well designed! It exceeded our expectations in every way!

A little slice of heaven!

We loved being directly on this calm beach, with beach chairs, pool noodles and snorkel gear provided. The screened in lanai was beautiful and fun to people watch, and mostly local families used this beach, so it was quiet at night to listen to the frog chorus. The place is exquisitely decorated and furnished. So comfortable! And close to town, restaurants and the airport.

Beautiful location but froggy nights.

Overall really enjoyed this very clean stay and beautiful location. Much nicer than any of the local Hilo hotels I’ve stayed at. Very near to the beach but a bit disappointed that we could not sleep with the windows open to hear the waves because they were drowned out by the frogs.

Happy in Hilo

We spent three nights on the Hilo side of the island and loved our stay at the Hilo Beach House. The location overlooking the park and ocean was lovely. The room was immaculate. We enjoyed exploring Hilo and vicinity, as well as a day trip to Volcano. We will choose this accommodation again when returning to the Big Island.

Beautiful Property

I appreciate how clean this place is. I slept so well, the bed is so comfortable and really beautiful. The property is secluded with views of the ocean. It overlooks a park where families gather on the weekends. Here on a Monday it’s mostly empty. We enjoyed our stay.

Hidden gem in Hilo

We adored our stay in Hilo! The room was very updated and spacious, spectacular view, total privacy, even helpful local suggestions for what to do and where to eat (if you wanted them). Walking right to the beach takes 2 minutes (can see from balcony) and they have some beautiful flowers and plants right on property to enjoy as well; including a sweet cat that hangs out downstairs and will be happy to greet you and request a pet if you're up for it. Even saw a HUGE sea turtle one morning from the rocks. Hilo itself was spectacular. Great central location to head out to all the major destinations. You can drive the across the whole island in about 1.5 hours so you have the whole island to play with. Can't recommend this stay enough!

Exceptionally designed and built (finished in December 2018) boutique hotel with four suites. Ours was one of the three beachview suites, which was elegantly furnished with a screened balcony overlooking a public beach (with a small public parking lot between the hotel property and the beach). We waded in the protected waters of the beach and even saw a turtle! The hotel is very private (in fact it is at the end of what is more like a driveway, shared with five or six small homes) with a dedicated parking spot for each suite. It is a short drive to Hilo's (?main) shopping mall (with adjacent Target and Walmart) and Hilo's old downtown.

Hidden gem

My wife and I greatly enjoyed the unique, beautiful Inn. The room overlooks the beach and tidal pool area, so while it also overlooks the public parking lot it is quite relaxing. It is 7-10 minutes from downtown Hilo shops and restaurants, and a good starting point for day trips to Volcanoes National Park as well as destinations north and south of town. The owner lives on the 3rd floor and was very responsive and hospitable. It was clear a great deal of thought went into the Inn design and materials, starting with the ground level floor being used for different types of classes that also serves as tsunami proofing. The room floors, showers, bathroom bowl, small frig, lanai overhang & screening, and automatic lights in the hallways were other examples of great design and materials. Accessing the Inn can be a bit quirky at first, but easy thereafter. We found the pricing to be comparable to other viable rental and hotel options. Overall we were very pleased with our stay.
