This climate-controlled condo is walking distance to downtown Hilo, the famous Hilo Farmer’s Market, Hilo Bayfront Beach Park, Liliuokalani Gardens, Coconut Island, and countless delicious food options.

Great stay in Hilo

Location in center of Hilo close to all the things that you would want to do while on vacation. The apartment is nicely renovated and had everything that we needed for our five day stay. Also has nice views of the Hilo lagoon. We really enjoyed our stay at this property and would highly recommend it.

Hilo’s Finest

We live in Hawaii, travel to Hilo frequently, and this place is a real gem. Centrally located, well appointed, very clean, and with a great view. Will definitely stay here again! There were only two of us, but it would also be very comfortable for 4. We highly recommend.

Wonderful place, also very convenient.

Beautiful place, very well appointed and maintained. The setup with 2 bedrooms separated by living room was ideal! Smallish living room, but we only had two people, so it was OK as we didn't spend much time at the unit. Walking distance to great latte and breakfast sandwiches (Just Cruisin). Laundry facilities on each floor was very handy, covered parking was great. Would definitely stay again.

Hilo isn’t the most picturesque town in Hawai’i but having this nicely renovated unit on a large park helps to make it as comfortable as possible. Close to all the good restaurants, would stay here again. Thanks!

Great place to stay!

Fantastic place to stay - way more space than we needed for 2 people, seems ideal for 4 with the two separate bedrooms and bathrooms (and 3 balconies!) with big common area. Very clean inside the unit - condo complex itself is a bit dated but you'd never know it inside the unit itself. About a 15-min walk to downtown Farmer's Market and restaurant and 25 to Coconut Island, but neither are the most "scenic" (lots of busy streets to walk next to).

A quiet and accessible location in Hilo

From booking to check out the whole process was seamless. We enjoyed exploring beautiful Hilo from this location, including Rainbow and Akaka falls, volcanoes national park and the farmers markets. Hilo Burger Joint, Cafe Pesto, Nector cafe, Kuhio Grille - Home Of The Famous 1lb Laulau were all delicious places within walking distance that we ate at and the service was great. We enjoyed beverage on the balcony each evening overlooking the lagoon and our girls loved the ducks and koi fish at the pond. Would definitely recommend staying here. Thankyou! From Australia :)

One of the best rental properties I’ve ever stayed at.

Where do I begin, this rental property was exactly what we needed during our stay in Hilo. It was in a quiet part of town, yet, still walking distance to so many awesome sites. It was super clean and had all the cooking utensils and wares we could ever ask for. The host was always prompt when we had questions and the property was always secure thanks to the guards in the lobby. This property made our stay in Hilo even better. The view of the lagoon was breathtaking, especially if you were up early enough to catch the sunrise. There is a reason this property is a 10/10. Thank you so much for having us.

Top Notch Accommodations

This place is even nicer in person. After seeing the modern decor, quality furnishings and appliances, and fully stocked kitchen, we also noticed how clean it was! Spotless. This made for a thoroughly comfortable and enjoyable trip. The other listings mentioned how the building itself was older, and yes, it is, but the inside of this condo was new, clean, and so comfortable. Great location as well. The host was readily available for any questions and provided a nice list of things to do in Hilo, most of which we did! Great stay!

Hilo

Condo was very clean and recently renovated. It was easy to walk to town and centrally located to tourist sites and just a 45 minute drive to Hawaii Volcano National Park. Great communication from the host who provided a great list of things to do and restaurants. We highly recommend Pineapples restaurant. There is a pool, however, there is no shade structure or umbrellas. If we ever went back to Hilo, we’d stay here again.

This condo is everything stated. So comfortable and decorated to perfection! The location is perfect for everything on this side of the island! We found Hilo so great, not touristy! Many amazing restaurants Hilo Bay Cafe, Booch Bar, Ola Brewery, just a few! The property manager gave great suggestions. The Botanical Garden a must, the newly opened black sand beach, and of course the Volcano National park! We hope to be back and stay here! Thanks for the perfect accommodation!

Condo in Hilo with park views

The condo is situated on the 7th floor, just the height of the palm trees, with beautiful views of the park. The building itself is aged, but the condo is newly remodeled and we found everything pristine. We did not use the pool, as it did not look too inviting. Great place to explore Hilo and its surroundings.

Beautiful View

This condo was beautiful, and nicely updated. It had all that you needed in the kitchen. They have chairs, beach towels, and a cooler to use. The view was out over the lagoon and a park. The building is old, but this condo is new, and the elevators(3 of them) are super fast. The only complaint I have was the second bedroom got full of gnats that I had to sweep up. We used this as our dressing room, so it wasn't a bother. No where else in the condo was that an issue. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Gem of a property

This condo is immaculate. Building is older. However, security on duty 24/7. Unit is on 7th floor and elevator is fast. Assigned parking. Cooler and freezer packs provided which made it easy to pack a lunch and snacks daily for exploring. Washer/dryer is down the hall and uses quarters which are easy to get in security office. Laundry was not an issue and certainly easier than if staying in a hotel. Most importantly, the beds were so comfortable and unit quiet. We slept well every night. We would stay here again.
