We decided to rent a beach house to house a few family members who flew over from Catalina Island to come to my Dad's Celebration of Life! Both my Aunt and Uncle from Catalina Island are 87 and 90 Years old. The house was very comfortable and easily accessible with a cane. Although we did experience some rainfall having the rocks embedded in the entrance floor and stairs made it easy for them to go up and down the stairs. My mother and I took advantage of the Kayaks and stand up paddle board one afternoon and it was so nice to be right there across from the beach! Mahalo and will recommend to others.

Convenient location and walk to the beach, we watched surfers from the front window. Spacious, we had 8 adults and the rooms were comfortable. The house has lots of character… it was everything we needed and more! Beautiful stay!

My filters had for an air-conditioned home. This house has no air-conditioning. If you are hot natured, you will not be happy here except a few nights . Even with fans, the house was very warm and extremely damp the entire time. The dryer did not work.. It is an older home, so it does show a little bit of wear, but a beautiful location, beds were comfortable, sofas sink badly when sitting. could use a board under the cushions. Would be great for a large family, but again, very hot and humid. Could not use the kayak as it was full of water, nor the bikes, as there was no way to pump up the tires.

Loved how accessible the bedroom was. The upstairs had a lovely view of the ocean and was a great place for all of us to congregate and have a great time!

Really enjoyed our stay in the house. Especially great location for early morning and late walks near the water. We made good use of the kayaks and appreciated the life jackets and water shoes. Noticed a few previous reviews made comments about tropical bugs, but we didn’t see anything like that! We stayed cool in the house in late July. Hope to be back.

This house has the most beautiful view of the ocean! Must love nature to stay here! Frog songs will lull you to sleep and the geckos will entertain you! Just minutes to downtown Hilo!
