Hawaiian Ohana Home

Great place to stay in Hilo! Very clean and kitchen was well equipped. Host was very welcoming and even brought us some bananas :)

Since this property address is hard to pin down on GPS (it is behind another road front property), it would be helpful to receive a message with a photo of the roadside surfboard that marks the driveway.The host (and manager) response was consistently excellent.

This property looks a bit better in the pictures than in real life but it was nice. The host was very nice and a great communicator. The one suggestion I have is to bring your own body wash, shampoo and conditioner because the product that was supplied seemed old and cheap and there wasn’t enough toilet paper provided for the amount of time we stayed. Other than these minor details it was good.

My two daughters and I spent six nights at this property. We have two issues with it. First, the bathroom sink has been completely clogged, it took a couple of hours to drain fully. Upon draining, the sink would be completely disgusting. I told about this to the property owner on the first morning. She shrugged and said she’d ask someone to take a look “at some point.” Nobody did. Also, for the life of me I couldn’t make the bathroom faucet to produce any hot water. So shaving was out of question.Second, the designated parking for this unit is in a very narrow alley next to the house. It appears that other units are being rented out by the owner, so a number of cars is parked in front of the house. As a result, on a couple of occasions I was unable to make a U turn on the property and had to get onto the street driving backwards. And the street could be pretty busy in the morning, so I felt very uncomfortable about this.Otherwise, a nice unit. But I wouldn’t rent it again.

Diana was a fabulous host. Her cottage was so well appointed and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.
