This location was perfect, allowing a centralized hub to visit the waterfalls, volcano, farmers market, and swimming with turtles.
The house was perfect, stocked well with some spices and a few condiments. The kids loved learning to skim on boogie boards from local children across the street.
The owner was quick to respond with questions and the house had a few maps and books to help plan our days.
We would return for sure!

Unbelievable access to the wonderful Hilo beach parks all within a mile or 2. We were up
and across the street to Richardson Beach Park everyday to see the turtles and the black sand beach in the afternoon. Richard’s house was so comfortable and had everything we needed for the beach and in the house. Loved the tropical views from all the windows and it was so quiet at night (except for the birds and the rain, which were wonderful to hear). Definitely coming back if I am lucky enough to ever come back to Hawaii again!

My husband and I enjoyed staying in this home. There’s a great view of Richardson’s Beach Park, close to downtown and was one of the best stocked houses we’ve ever stayed in.
Thank you!

This location was a perfect balance of away from it all and close enough to stores, restaurants, shopping, beaches, wind and sky to help our family unwind. We loved the house, it's vibe, it's style, and most importantly the kind support and useful information from our host. It wasn't information overload, rules to the sky, or feeling like an outsider. It was understandable fun information that improved our visit to Hilo, rules that made sense and helped us balance ourselves in this amazing place, and a sense of belonging. We were at home while away. Thanks Richard.

Wonderful location right across from the Richardson beach park, surrounded by jungle. Carlsmith beach park in easy walking distance. Roomy, comfortable house. Fans were all that were needed. Lots of fun beach gear provided. Absolutely the only criticism: sporadic hot water for showers.
10.0 / 10.0
Home was perfect for our family and being right across the street from Richardson black sand beach park was perfect. Even though the weather didn’t cooperate a few days, we could watch the body boarders across the street. Close to town for easy access to shopping and dining and we took trips to Kilauea and the various waterfalls. Owners were very responsive to any questions we had.

This place was a great place to stay, views & access to beach were superb! Had access to washer & dryer which was really nice when staying at 1 location for 10 days. Mainly cooked at home, kitchen was set up really good, the gas stove was nice! Would defiantly stay here again.

Our family was born and raised in Hilo, but needed a larger 'base camp' with in-laws, grandchildren, etc. We loved the indoor and outdoor spaces, & easy access to the beach.

Great location but…
Pros:
- Fantastic location! We loved being across from Richardson's Beach and could see sea turtles there!
- Fully stocked home. Great to have snorkel gear.
Cons: (Most of these may not bother others)
- Screens are in need of repair or replacement. Since there are sizeable gap between the screens and frame, at least four geckos came into the home and several bugs.
- Mattresses sag and should be replaced, particularly on the 2nd floor. Our old backs needed firmer support.
- No A/C ... and it's pretty muggy in July. So while the house cools at night, it can be stifling to come back to rest in the afternoon.
8.0 / 10.0
Great location.
This property is everything described in the listing except it is definitely NOT a luxury property. So before Richard berates and disagrees with me, I’ll just state the obvious—this review is a fair description of my experience and isn’t meant to agree or disagree with anyone else.
The house structure is not well maintained, particularly the windows—although some are in working condition, others have broken or missing screens and in the first floor bathroom there is a screen but no window. This may account for the bugs and small lizards in the house. The house is hot, even with the use of the very loud, very strong whole house fan. You have to sleep with the windows open and the ceiling and room fans on to get any ventilation—the house usually cools down by 2am. Between the fans and tree frogs it could be difficult to fall asleep if noise bothers you. The pictures in the listing don’t reflect the current state of the property, it seems they are from the renovation done 10 years ago. The bed configuration is definitely different, the description is accurate, not the pictures. On the first floor there is a king size mattress on a queen headboard and in a separate room 2 twin beds. On the second floor there is a king size bed in the room and twin beds in the closet so you have to walk through one room to get to the other. A great arrangement when traveling with young children. The house needs a deep clean.
I had a lot of trouble getting email prior to our stay and Richard was exceptionally responsive in getting me the door code and other information I needed. He has also prepared a notebook about the area. It is in the dining room and definitely worth looking at. Lots of suggestions for activities. The Wi-Fi is the best I’ve had in a rental—strong and consistent signal. Many folks did not sign out of their streaming service so there are plenty to chose from including Netflix and Disney plus if you don’t mind using someone else’s subscription. Towels are plentiful, kitchen items and pantry are more than sufficient to get you started. The shower water is heated using solar energy; even though it was mostly cloudy during our 4 day stay there was no problem with having sufficient hot water for 4 adults. Plenty of parking and space to turn around so you aren’t backing out onto a busy road. There are lots of beachy-things and a grill available to use, although we did not have time to use them.

Perfect!!
This beach house was perfect! Views of the ocean right across the street. Large windows all around the house for natural lighting. Everything you could want and more in a rental property. Fully stocked everything! From the kitchen with all cooking accessories and supplies at your disposal, bathroom necessities, and washer and dryer needs. Kids loved the nature books and board games. Having all the streaming services available was great! Especially Disney+! Having the washer and dryer in house was really convenient. Multiple beaches within a 5 minute drive. There were kayaks, stand up paddles boards, inflatables, boogie boards, and a whole storage area in the garage full of other outdoor goodies. The drive to Hilo was short and easy as were all the sights in the area.
Overall, I would definitely stay at this property again. I would also love to check out the 4 other properties the owner has in Hilo. They look amazing as well!

Just Perfect!
Being right across the street from a black sand snorkeling beach made our stay wonderful! And the house is comfortable and clean with plenty of room for large groups, even though ours was small. The whole house fan kept the house cool, there was plenty of seating both indoors and out, with lovely views. We did buy earplugs to block the chirping of the coqui frogs! Definitely a great house and location!

Beautiful view
Location was beautiful, it is right across the street from Richardsons Beach Park. We could just walk across the street to enjoy the ocean and tide pools. We also enjoyed going to Carl Smith Beach Park about a mile down the road.
The property manager was very responsive, we were in need of a high chair and they delivered one on that day. They were also very helpful with a piece of luggage that was accidentally left at the home. They went out of their way to get is shipped back to us.
It is a little noisy on the weekend. There were motorcycles that seemed to enjoy making as much noise as possible as they went down the street.
The home is in some need of care. The railing on the steps looks to be rusted to the point that if someone leaned up against it, it would break off. The windows in living room and dining room are rusted to the point where they can not be closed.

Location is beautiful!
The house was perfect! We spent most of our 4 days/time on the lanai overlooking the koi pond and at Richardson’s Beach park directly across the street. We found everything we needed to make our stay like home. The kitchen has everything needed, plenty of towels, and beach toys! The beds were comfortable and depending on the heat, we found the upstairs bedroom perfect for a breeze and listening to the ocean waves. During the day, we kept the windows closed with only the “floor” windows open which kept the house at a comfortable temperature and used the provided fans.
If we had to change anything - refuse to check out and having the ability to feed the koi. 😀
Richard was quick to respond to our questions and very easy to work with prior to our arrival. We would definitely rent this house again!

Great Big Island Location
Our family of five (two adults, three teens) stayed for three nights. The house is directly across the street from an amazing park and beach. We strolled over and enjoyed our morning coffee overlooking the surf and the tide pools, and we found several turtles and Nene geese all before the Saturday crowds arrived. We had everything we needed for meals in the kitchen and it's a short ride into town for stores and restaurants. We didn't use the beach gear as we brought our own snorkeling stuff, but it looked like anything you might want was available (snorkeling at the beach was easy and fun). With all of the fans provided and thanks to a nice cross-breeze, we were able to keep the house cool enough. Richard provided lots of helpful pre-approval info, and even after we left graciously tried to help us find a wallet one of our boys misplaced. If your plans take you to Hilo, we would definitely recommend the Beaches house!

Amazing location!
Richard's place has everything you need and then some! Brand new bikes, reef shoes in all sizes, body boards, SUPs, kayaks, etc. Just pick your toy and walk across the street. The kitchen was fully stocked, tons of towels, large washer and dryer. We will definitely stay here again!

Fantastic Home
Literally right across the street from the beach that’s only a few minutes or less to walk to the beach. Had a problem with the oven unfortunately, but Richard answered super fast. He always answered really fast
to any questions I had and having the late check out was amazing because that left us time to stay at the beach all day on the last day. The house is stocked with all the essentials and ocean stuff you might want. A little over a week and I know next time we come we would like to stay at Richard’s houses again.

Perfect location;some rough edges
We arrived just before dark & chose our bedrooms & went to bed soon after because of the long flight from the mainland. We woke in the morning to see the gorgeous view of the gardens & the ocean beyond. The Beach Park across the street was awesome. We saw lots of sea turtles & snorkeling was super. As it was July, it was pretty hot & the whole house fan was very noisy & not terribly efficient. Luckily, there were many small fans in the house also which was helpful. There are many windows that have no screens & several screens didn’t fit tightly or had big holes which allowed bugs to enter. There were eight of us ( 3 generations ) & the size of the house was perfect for all to have some space of there own. The furniture in the livingroom belongs in a colder climate. It is covered in heavy fabric & sitting there was quite hot. I suggest more beach towels as we only found three & the house sleeps eight. The kitchen was well appointed with dishes, glasses, coffee mugs, pots, pans & utensils. We found the water from the faucets unpleasant, but the water from the refrigerator was filtered & tasted much better. We stayed in the house for nine days & covered the island in all directions during that time with two cars taking day trips & returning for swims most afternoons (unless raining!). All had a great time at this place and would definitely stay there again.

Great Hilo home and responsive owner!
This house is a great location for travel all around the Big Island. Richard the owner was very responsive to our needs (he supplied additional beach towels and a cooler). We used the kayaks right across the street and enjoyed many fish and turtles. I gave a 4 because like most Hawaiian homes it is not air conditioned. Unfortunately, many screens need repaired so a lot of bugs came in the home in the evening through the screens. We would recommend new screens upstairs and several downstairs. The whole house fan is very helpful but July travelers should be aware it will be warm. Thank you for sharing your home!

The experience was great just had some cleaning issues.
We like the code entry door system no keys needed. The issues I had were the outside walkway should be pressure washed because it's dirty, the floor throughout the house both up and downstairs needed to be mopped it felt as if no has taken care of that prior to our arrival, up stairs bathroom toilet tank cover needed to be wiped clean , the Windows need to be cleaned and last the children were disappointed that the television didn't work. Overall our stay was a good experience the beach being across the street was wonderful and we loved the view. The bad thing is if you charge for cleaning then the place should be cleaner then we had it. If you need help taking care of things at your properties let me know. Aside from those issues we had a wonderful time thank you for letting us use you're property. Once again if you need help Cleaning or anything else let me know. Thank you

We're back in cold New Hampshire now. My adult family of six had a great time here. The weather was beautiful and swimming over at Richardson's in the tide pool was a lot of fun. I wish that we could have stayed a few more days. The Botanical gardens in Hilo is truly awesome. Thanks Again

Highly recommended, perfect location!
We rented both of Richards homes for our group of 16 running the Hawaii Ragnar, we couldn't have asked for a better location! The home was perfect for out group and although we were not there much it was great to come back to a nice comfortable bed after a long day of running. The home is directly across the street from a beautiful beach, we enjoyed the turtles and other wildlife along the beach - and of course the sound of the waves as we slept. Richard was more than accommodating while booking the home and left plenty of suggestions for places to eat and things to do, we had to call him a couple of times and he was very nice and helpful. Hilo reminded us of "old" Hawaii, not commercialized and many locals surfing on the beach. If you are looking to stay in this area of Hawaii, we could highly recommend this home!
