The best equipped house we have ever rented. Not only appliances of all kinds but also a well stocked cabinet of foods. The house is spacious and comfortable, plenty of room for a family of four. And the location beautiful, the botanical garden across the street free for us to explore. Highly recommended.

Absolutely phenomenal!

Very quiet location a short drive from Hilo. Beautiful grounds filled with fruit trees, charming birds, and the coqui frogs will relax you at night. The screened-in lanai is airy with ceiling fans and you will enjoy every spare moment out there or even a nap. Spacious well equipped kitchen and brand new appliances throughout. Many great snorkeling adventures in Hilo make great day trips. Check out the Tuesday night traditional Hawaiian music at the Hilo Town Tavern.
Literally your backyard at this house. Amazing!

A slice of paradise

We stayed here because it is close to family and are so glad we did! Very well equipped and comfortable home in a quiet setting. The kitchen is one of the best equipped ones we’ve ever had. Not only are the cooking pots and pans of high quality, but there were lots of condiments and ingredients available too. The furniture is of a nice quality and the house was impeccably clean.
