All kitchen ware available. No need to buy anything for washroom. Overall a little bit wet feeling for people from dry climate area. If there's exhaust fan for washroom would be better.

Cute Hilo house
This house was perfect for our family of 6. It was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Our children enjoyed sleeping in separate rooms and they loved the huge yard. If you’re in Hilo with your family we’d definitely recommend this property!!!

As a professional cleaning service owner, upon check in - it was definitely not up to standard. Sadly, in order to enjoy our stay we had to clean the entire house, again. It is highly suggested you reevaluate your housekeeper. This beautiful home deserves a deep clean, and some restocking of items. I hope you find our feedback useful. Mahalo!

We got in early and the house was available for us, it was bringing a lot of memories back for us, we’re originally from Hilo house lot area. The house was very clean and the neighborhood is in an area to get around very easily. We’ll be coming back around March 2023, and hopefully the property will be available.

Cozy home in hilo close to everything
Went on a family trip. Visiting family and friends from mt view to paradise Park to paipaiko. The location for this was perfect, right in the middle. Living in hilo many years ago made it easy to navigate the triangle. The house was easy to find and easy to get back on the road for adventures.
