Spacious and Convenient

We enjoyed our stay at the property overall. We would have liked to have seen a better job of cleaning and maintenance but when you consider the price, it’s a great value, especially if you are with family and/or friends. The A/C was so great to have in the late afternoon but most of the day we loved the very efficient dehumidifier. No one was renting upstairs so it was very quiet, private and peaceful. We did see a few bugs but realize people, this is a TROPICAL place. We would not want to stay at a place that had enough poison sprayed everywhere that we would never see a single bug. Also, the folks staying there need to routinely clean up after themselves. We’re happy we were able to book this property. Larry & Linda G

Beautiful home-downstairs unit

The upstairs and downstairs are separate units. Luckily no one was staying above us so it was quiet! Beds and couches are a bit lumpy, but overall the place was cute and the fridge/pantry had a variety of items. Location in HPP was convenient for our stay!

Quiet and relaxing

Very roomy, nice yard with lots of trees and birds. Very quiet - we had property to ourselves. Most beds were good, 1 bit lumpy as well as couches. Nice lanai, screens need little tlc. Nice to have full kitchen and laundry. Good for group of friends or family. We would rent again.

Large and comfy home

The rooms and accommodations were spacious. We made good use of the patio, lanai, for drying out our swim suits as well as the washer and dryer. Just be prepared to drive at least 20-25 mins to get into Hilo for restaurants and other tourist spots. We could easily get to Volcanoes National park and other east side locations from here. The frogs are super loud at night if you keep the windows open! That's probably true everywhere on the island unless you stay in a big hotel. Nice supply of fins, snorkel, and aqua gear for snorkeling if you don't bring your own.

A whole month! February.

Our first trip to Hawaii and we stayed on the Big Island for a month to fully explore it. I picked this location for closeness to Volcanos Natl. Park, to explore this rainforest side of the island, and the lower price compared to the Kona for a long stay. The house worked well for all of that. But, if I were to do over, I would do 2 wks here, 2 wks Kona just because the drive between the 2 is about 2 hrs, so we spent a lot of time driving. With 3 bedrooms, we had friends come to stay twice during the month. The beds were comfortable, bedrooms were spacious, plenty of drawer and closet space. Actually all of the living areas are large and have plenty of seating, lots of room to gather and play games. The smart tv works great, I was able to log into my premium channels. The wifi works great, never had any connection issues. But upgrades are needed: the couches are lumpy, dining room chairs are stiff, and there were no cushions on the porch furniture. There is an air conditioner unit in the main living space and the main bedroom. We only used it the first week or so. The house stayed pretty cool, so once we turned the main one off, we never turned it back on. We only used the one in the bedroom twice the whole month. There is a dehumidifier which worked well, we started turning that on everyday when we left, otherwise it started to feel damp in the house. The house is about a 16 minute drive to Hilo, which is the largest town nearby, with major retailers, gas stations, downtown shops, restaurants, parks and beaches. FYI Buy groceries at Target, so much cheaper than the local grocers. People in Hilo thought this was out in the boonies, but I didn’t think it was that far. I thought Hilo offered a lot, but I’m glad we were not staying in Hilo, even though we went there frequently. This is in a large development but the houses have large yards and are back from the road, no street lights, so in that way it did feel more rural. We did not cook much at the house, but there is not a dishwasher, no big deal. Guests are asked to wash and put away dishes at end of stay, also no big deal. But, the cupboards were disorganized and I didn’t like the way the dishes looked, so first thing we did was wash all the plates, bowls, glasses and utensils. We washed cookware as we used it. I think cleaners could do better in the kitchen. Everything else in the house was nice and clean, and it had everything we needed. We enjoyed our stay.

Hawaii caving

It was a great location , about in the middle of our exploits. Hope to stay here again. We caved at the bottom of the island, on the east side and in Hilo. Also it’s only about 40 minutes to Volcanos NP. We were able to cook most nights at the house even though we did eat out some with friends. We always shop at the farmers market in Kea’au for breakfast fruit, ginger root, garlic and for $6 we buy a big bag of cut vegetables for stir fry meals, picking up fish and shrimp at Foodland which is across the road from the market. The fast food oriental place is just a few doors down from Foodland. You get a lot for your money. Thanks Liz for being a helpful host.

lovely place-

stayed for 2 weeks plus and enjoyed the lanai especially. The kitchen had the basics and was stocked with some leftover oils and spices, which I always appreciate and add to. The neighborhood is quiet and at the end of the neighborhood, great outlooks for sunrise. LOOOTS of driving on the big island, so plan accordingly. Beds comfortable, opening the house brought in the breezes and we will miss the big island when we leave.

Jungle get away.

What a wonderful place! My husband, parents and I were looking to be much closer to the beach but this was just what we needed. We sat on the porch every morning enjoying all the trees and birds. It didn’t even matter that it rained every day. In fact we all agreed that the rain only added to the ambiance. In the evening we enjoyed the sweet sound of the coqui frogs. Quiet and out of the way was a perfect place to relax. The house itself was well stocked and larger than we expected. What a nice surprise. We all highly recommend this place and would stay again.

Okay stay

The location had clearly not seen a lot of travelers or people in awhile! Very dusty and damp smelling. The floors were not very clean and the screens in the bathroom and lanai need some fixing as we al got mosquito bites throughout the night. The singular bathroom for the number of rooms was not super convenient as one room was down a long hallway and was pretty noisy when someone walked back and forth from the bathroom. The noise between the upstairs and downstairs is not insulated at all so we heard everything from the people upstairs our first night. Was fine afterwards only because there were not people staying above us the second and third night. The other thing of note is there is AC in one bedroom and the dining space but No AC in two bedrooms or living room. We had texted the owner that we couldn’t find the toaster and they said it was in the right cupboard however, between the 6 adults we did not find a toaster anywhere. Overall it was good for the price but I probably would recommend a deeper clean and labeling of kitchen drawers and cupboards as well as fixing the screens.

Beautiful secluded retreat

lovely home that fitted our needs perfectly. Plenty of space for our week gathering as a family. My daughter and mother joined us. We each had a spacious bedroom with ample living space. Loved the screened in Lanai. Had our coffee every morning here. Well stocked and had everything we needed, including washer and dryer. Clean and well maintained. Couldn't have been more pleased.

A wonderful place to set up home-base for an amazing trip!

This home provided everything we needed from a central location to the different areas we wanted to visit, to quiet, lush serenity, to good quiet roads to run on. The home was well decorated and felt welcoming. All of our needs were met as far as appliances, ceiling fans coupled w/box fans to combat the heat....plenty of options for entertainment w/TV and DVD's. Even having people staying in the unit above us was very quiet and not a bother. We would definitely stay here again....great for couples or families!

Beautiful spacious relaxing place to stay

We had a wonderful time staying at this place. We were there for a week with another couple enjoying the Merrie Monarch festival and exploring the big island. The place was beautiful and quiet, we really enjoyed it and would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful!!

Spent a few days here with a couple of friends for the price and the location, but the house was far and above our expectations! Comfortable beds, a well stocked kitchen, and a great home-y atmosphere made it the perfect place to come home to after a couple long days of hiking and exploration. It's a short drive from the airport and a great home base for exploring the Hilo side of the island. Communication was easy going and Liz and Jason were very nice about being flexible for our check in/out times. Would definitely stay here again!

A Must Stay!

We stayed at the Retreat for 3 days, and it was TRULY like being at home. There was NOTHING that we needed that was not in the condo....just like being at home. The communications with Liz,the Owner, was excellent and she provided ALL the information necessary for us to have a very pleasant and enjoyable stay. The location is great....only a few miles from stores, etc. Everything was easy to find and driving was very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed the Hilo Farmers Market on Saturday and had lunch at Cafe' Pesto...food was delicious. The condo was very spacious and comfortable....exactly as advertised and MORE! We have stayed in several rentals during our travels and this is the BEST rental that we have rented. I would highly recommend this rental...you won't be disappointed!

PARADISE!!!!!

My wife and I spent 14 days here, Liz and Jason were great to work with. This property is such a delight. It is clean, well maintained, and in a great location for access to all things on the east side of the island. Liz went out of her way to make you feel welcome and to answer any questions. I have already recommended this property to people I talk to about visiting Hawaii. The photos in the listing accurately reflect the place, but you are still pleasantly surprised when you arrive. Thanks Liz and Jason!
