Great stay!
This is the perfect home base for a few days of exploring the Hilo area.
The apartment is comfortable, clean, nicely appointed. All the basics and more are provided.
Terry gave good information, replied promptly to my queries.
We would definitely stay here again next time we’re in Hilo.

The view!
This vacation rental is a gem. It was clean, well stocked and possibly the best view on the island. Our favorite thing to do was walk next door to Carlsmith Beach Park and hang out in the water. We saw sea turtles there several times. If I ever go back to the big island I would want to stay here again.

Perfect location for a quiet stay at Hilo
I am going to start with the positives first. The location is perfect for quiet evenings after a day of sightseeing around the island. The neighborhood is not touristy and busy like Kona. The condo is about 40 minutes from Volcanoes National Park. The condo has a beautiful view of Carlsmith Beach Park from the balcony and a very short walk to the water. There are ladders to the water and the water was shallow. We were able to see schools of fish and several turtles in the water at dusk. The unit itself was very comfortable and inviting. The unit had everything we needed for a family stay with all kitchen gadgets, sundry items (sunblock, beach towels, sewing kit, umbrellas), and sports equipment (pool noodles, snorkels, fins, bodyboards, etc.). We saved some money by not having to rent snorkeling equipment, buying umbrellas, and by making some meals at home. The building also has a pool for swimming laps. The Seaside Restaurant across the street served some pretty good seafood. Terry (the property manager) responded quickly to inquiries and had a binder at the entry way with all sorts of useful information and recommendations. I only had two items that were minor issues. One needs to sign a rental agreement for a stay in the unit and the elevator keys were a bit sticky and took a few minutes of trying to make them work. However, if one doesn’t mind either of those things, the stay is well worth it. I would stay here again if I come back to Hilo.

Great Vacation
Had an amazing time! The property is clean, beautiful and offers access to the beach park next door (but there are several right down the road if you like to snorkel) Loved being able to go without having to pack up and find parking! Quiet building with the most friendly residents. The property manager was responsive and very helpful. The property is close to shopping and dining. The local farmers market was wonderful! Loved our visit and would stay again!

Well appointed (well stocked), great location. Near enough to Hilo but basically at Carls Smith Park. Swimming, snorkeling, turtle watching. I also really enjoyed the pool. Very clean and under used so it was quiet and peaceful.

Fabulous condo
We absolutely loved the condo and the location! The condo is beautiful, clean, comfortable and very well equipped. The views are fantastic towards the lagoon and the ocean beyond as well as the lush vegetation that surrounds Carlsmith Beach Park. The complex is well maintained and quiet. The lagoon is right in front of the building and was wonderful for swimming and snorkelling. Regularly met a couple of turtles that came in to feast around the lava rocks. We took walks down to Richardson Beach Park and along Nene Road nearby. Hilo and area is full of sights and attractions, historical and cultural relevance, opportunities to see endemic birds and other wild life. We`ve spent time in Kona several times but this place is definitely more authentic, more multicultural, less touristy, less crowded and has so much to offer. The only regret is we had only two weeks - planning to stay longer the next time!
