About this property

Discover a captivating home nestled in the vibrant heart of Hilo.


  • This ground-floor unit is located in a conveniently situated two-story home in the heart of Hilo, within a pleasant and safe neighborhood. It's within walking or biking distance to most amenities in Hilo town.

    Nestled on a private, low-traffic side street, the unit is removed from the noise of city life while still being centrally located to everything Hilo has to offer.

    The spacious unit includes two bedrooms, a bathroom, a living room, and a kitchen. One bedroom features a double bed, while the other has a queen bed, both equipped with super comfortable, high-quality mattresses. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking, although it does utilize a hot plate, a microwave, and a variety of cooking gadgets instead of a traditional range or oven.

    On-site parking is available for one vehicle, with additional street parking just a short distance away.

    Enjoy a private, nicely sized backyard that's perfect for barbecues or for sipping coffee and having meals in the covered back lanai. The yard is lined with fruit trees, including bananas, citrus, and pineapple.

Not the best VRBO experience

This unit is a basement of a two story home and you can hear everything from the top story. The kitchen is really a kitchenette and does not have a range or dish washer. Important only if plan to cook. The listing indicated washer an dryer however you will be charged $8 ($5 for washing and $3 for drying) per load. Bit costly since never had to pay for laundry before. In addition the towels, sheets and pillows smelled of mildew. The owner did change them when notified. Owner promised to give free cleaning service since we were staying more than a week but was not able to fulfill.

Hilo stay #2

This is the 2nd time we’ve stayed at this property. Owner is easy to work with and accommodating to arrival time. She made some nice upgrades since we were there the first time to make it even more comfortable. Location is more residential but perfect for what we needed. It’s also nice to have set parking spots so you do not need to park on the street since street parking would be difficult. Would stay there again!

It was a great location. Close to town and easy to get to. It was nice to have a dedicated parking spot and to have portable air conditioners in each bedroom.
