The house is great. There was an issue which the owners took care of promptly. This place does not have a/c and that is likely my fault. I'm sure I just missed it in the listing. The house wasn't too warm during the day but cooled down and sleeping at night was perfect. It is close to Hilo town. It is close to a general store if you need something and walking distance from a beach that apparently has seals at it frequently. We did not see any this trip. We had the house to ourselves. There was a guest in the downstairs (seperate entrance) who was a healthcare worker and gone most of thrle time.

This home is cute, but lacking in cleanliness. The fridge was clean, but countertops, dishes, utensils were not clean. There were roaches and termites, holes in the screens. Without A/C the open windows were a must. As for the neighborhood, the house next door was being remodeled, so there were many people in and out with our driveway being blocked. I walk every morning and evening, and did not feel safe walking in this neighborhood as there were some individuals living in their cars. Staying here without our husbands and having our children with us was not ideal. The owners are very kind but not the home or area we expected.

Our entire ohana (family) enjoyed our stay on the Big Island. The location is perfect with a nice little general store across the street. The plantation style of the home made for a very comfortable stay. Excellent showers and a huge kitchen. The property manager (Thom) made us feel at home from the start and was on standby if we needed anything. This was a trip to remember! We’d happily stay here again on our next trip to Hawai’i Island. Mahalo nui loa!!

Nice stay close to Hilo (5 - 8 minute drive) with everything we needed provided for at the house. Traveled with young kids and a baby and found the house comfortable and clean. Some light construction going on next door but host let us know about it. As other reviews have stated, some road noise during the day but it's just part of the background noise. It does get warm during the day inside the house but cools down at night. Given the locale, there are encounters with critters (frogs, lizards, termites). They don't bother you but they are around. Best part of this place is the kind and helpful hosts. They were available to answer questions, address concerns, and provide tips. We'd definitely stay here again.
