• A Perfect Beach Home Getaway

  5/5

  This beach home is truly the perfect place to stay—an absolute gem on the Hilo side of the island! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the seamless blend of modern amenities and island charm. The home is beautifully designed with all the comforts of home, including a fully equipped kitchen, fast Wi-Fi, and stylish, cozy furnishings that make it easy to relax and unwind.

  The beds were incredibly comfortable and I loved that I didn't have to take home a suitcase full of dirty laundry. But the real magic is outside: the front porch is a dream. We started each morning with coffee while watching the sunrise and ended the day playing board games and taking in the breathtaking sunset. It was a front-row seat to nature’s best show.

  Although it was hot outside, the cool ocean breeze blew through the large beach-facing windows, keeping us comfortable throughout the day and night. It made the whole space feel fresh and open.

  What we loved most was the location. You feel like you're tucked away in a quiet, secluded part of the island, but everything you could want is just 10-15 minutes away—great restaurants, shopping, entertainment, and golf. Plus, it’s centrally located between iconic destinations like Rainbow and Akaka Falls, making day trips easy and convenient.

  And the best part? The beach is literally across the street, offering some of the best snorkeling we experienced on the Hilo side of the island. Crystal-clear waters, vibrant marine life, and no crowds—it doesn’t get better than that.

  This home is a rare find—peaceful, convenient, and simply a charm. For our next rip to the big island, we have no need to look for another place to stay. We will be back to the Hilo Oasis for sure!!

• On the Beach in Hilo

  4/5

  This is a very nice place to stay for two couples or a couple and 1 or 2 kids. The bedrooms are somewhat small and only one bath. The closets had plenty of hangers and towels. There is no AC, but plenty of fans to keep the air moving. The refrigerator has built-in filtered water, nice touch. The charm of this place is the location and yard. It is right across the road from the shoreline and within minutes of town. There are feral chickens strutting around and coqui frogs at night. We found these entertaining and they seemed to keep the bugs at bay. Some folks mentioned the noise from the street and the park across the way, but we just poured an adult beverage and sat on the huge lanai and watched the free show. This house worked well for us while touring the Hilo side of the island.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Guy, the right vacation home is everything, and we’re sorry to hear that noise from the surrounding area impacted your stay. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  - While we can’t control nearby properties or street activity, we understand how noise can affect the overall experience and are sorry it disrupted your time outdoors.
  - The county does enforce quiet hours from 9 PM to 8 AM, and we encourage all nearby guests to follow these guidelines out of respect for the neighborhood.
  Thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the views, and we’ll continue doing our part to create a welcoming space for future guests.

• Lovely house, but…

  4/5

  This house is very nice with everything one would need.Right across the street are 3 beaches which lead to many blasting stereo cars driving up and down this road as there is a dead end turn around 2 blocks from house. The couches (futons) are not the most comfortable to sit on.The absolute worst part is the next door neighbors 3 very large dogs that start barking 5:00am every day with the neighbor interacting with them. With no air conditioning and the bedroom open windows 10’ from the fence line makes for an unacceptable serene ocean morning.
