About this property
Nice and Spacious Studio Apartment On The Large Golf Course In Hilo
Our half acres property is located directly on the Big Island's only open-to-the-public Hilo Municipal Golf Course, in the southern part of Hilo. We have our Main House in front and towards the back the 800 sq-ft Studio and Lanai facing East, with a direct view onto our garden and fruit tree orchard. Our orchard contains various seasonal fruits like papayas, starfruit, lychee, Jabuticaba, and more.
Our central location gives you great access to all of East Hawaii's various activities.
Just 7-15 min. away you have all of Hilo's shopping and dining opportunities. The historic part of Hilo Downtown with it's Hilo Farmer Market, Just Cruisin Coffee, and Ou Thai Food (on the farmers market with great Thai Green Papaya Salad), just mention a small few.
Just 10-30 min. away you have access to Hilo's beaches, surfing, hiking, spelunking, waterfalls, and the Big Island's great attraction, the Lava Flowing into the Ocean.
Just 25-45 min. away to the South, you have access to the Big Island's Volcano National Park, and Hawaii's Volcano Winery just around the corner. And to the North, the Hamakua Coast's Hawaii Tropical Batanical Garden, Hawaii's only and very quaint Laupahoehoe Train Museum, and the incredible Waipi'o Valley.
Or just stay at home and go play a round golf, at the island's only open-to-the-public golf course, the "Hilo Municipal Golf Course". We also include garage parking accommodations to keep you dry, if it rains.

Lovely apartment, well stocked with all your needs. The host, Ingrid, is wonderful and makes your stay extra special. Location was good, and we explored all over Hilo and beyond.
Spacious, airy and very clean studio. Comfortable queen and sofa bed. Covered lanai is available. Kitchen and appliances all in good working condition. Parking in garage next to the house.

Couldn’t have chosen a better and more comfortable place to stay while exploring the Big Island. You have everything you need and more while staying here.
The apartment is spacious and airy and very well stocked with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The location is excellent for visiting all of the major tourist attractions and the hosts are very helpful and friendly.
We had a great time in Hilo and it started with a wonderful place to stay. The bed was comfortable, everything was clean and our host was very sweet! She was always willing to listen to our stories of the day. We will definitely stay again when in Hilo.
Wonderful stay on a wonderful island! The place was very clean and stocked with all the items you would require. Communication with Ingrid was perfect and seamless. Definitely recommend and hope to be back one day!
We enjoyed our stay at this VROB immensely. The living area was large and had lots of seating and good lighting. The kitchen and bathroom were well stocked with everything we needed. We didn't do any cooking but there were lots of pans and pots if you did want to. Everything was awesome and we appreciated being able to stay there.
Ingrid has thought of everything in creating this lovely apartment. She has everything you need to live very comfortably, and her decor is instantly relaxing and pleasant. We will definitely be coming back the next time we visit Hilo.
The location was just what I thought it would be. It was easy to get into Hilo town or head to Volcano National Park.
The host is very responsive to any needs we had since she is right there on site. The interior was clean and very comfortable. The lanai is perfectly private.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the studio. It was lovely, clean and spacious, with a well equipped kitchen. Hilo was a good base for exploring Volcano National Park and the east coast of the island. We appreciated being in a quiet neighborhood but having a car was essential. There is a bus stop nearby but the bus only runs once an hour.
Ingrid gave us a warm and wonderful welcome to their large studio. The soft Hilo rain and nature sounds were tropical and a sweet departure from our daily life in SoCal.
All our conveniences were met from a full fridge, toaster oven, microwave, TV streaming and great hot showers. We didn't use the nice oven and cooktop. The studio is very airy with scenic views including the awesome Mauna Kea.
We are so happy to have found this affordable gem in Hilo while visiting friends.
Aloha and Mahalo Ingrid, Amon and Keiki!
Ingrid & Amon Falstrom are the perfect welcoming hosts. The neighborhood apt. has nice, airy 2nd floor views. Wake up each day to chirping birds, lulled to sleep at night by coquí frog & chameleon gecko songs. Well appointed, very well-maintained old school furnishings. Well-stocked linens, towels & amenities. A+ lanai perfect for reading writing, meditating, PT exercises, & mindful quiet time. Apt. has amazing cross-ventilation. Free covered parking space is included! Amon is a building contactor, so the apt. has beautiful floors, area rugs, small, but very clean bathroom, very good ppainting finishes inside & out. Very high quality kitchen utensils, dishes, & utensils. Soaps, kitchen & bath supplies all made conveniently available! This can easily be THE go-to-stay place in Hilo!

Ingrid and Amon are very kind and helpful hosts. Had everything we needed for our stay. Clean and comfortable Ohana . We will be back to stay here
Wonderful place to stay to explore Hilo and Volcanoes National Park. Comfortable, clean and a beautiful setting that feels like being in a tree-house with lovely views. The hosts are very welcoming and close by to help with anything that is needed. We highly recommend and would love to stay again someday in the future. Mahalo to our kind hosts for making our vacation even more special.
The stay was better than expected. The accomodations and the Hosts were exceptional. We highly recommend this apartment to everyone needing a central location to eplore the eastern side of the Big Island, look no further and make your reservation now. Enjoy!
