About this apartment rental

Welcome to Maluhia Kahakai - Your Awesome Vacation Rental at the Mauna Loa Shores Condominiums in Hilo, HI!

This recently renovated ground floor, garden view 2 bedroom, 1 bath condo in Hilo is beachfront next to Carlsmith Beach Park where you can swim and snorkel all day every day and get up close to the sea turtles! Your home-away-from-home has everything you need for the perfect getaway or extended vacation. The living room is the perfect place to relax after a long day sight-seeing around the Big Island, with a cable TV, DVD, a DVD library, lots of books and games, and of course cable and unlimited high-speed internet.

We had a fabulous time. In spite of no A/C, we were quite comfortable the entire time. The living room sofa could have been more comfortable, but the kitchen was clean and well equipped. The shower was FABULOUS!

Sea turtles, sun, jungle, and sea at your fingertips. Great family friendly area, minutes from downtown. We loved being close to Carmichael Park; saw a sea turtle the first day. Kids loved it!

Friendly property manager helped us find our lockbox and told us about the differences in the keys. Nice apartment that kept fairly cool without air conditioning. Nice pool and convenient access to the ocean. At the end of the hall, so good privacy. Would have been nice to be able to give our older kids keys too, but $250 list key fee wasn't worth the risk. Buddhist statues everywhere, too much. Toilet requires multiple flushes and there's a slow leak in the shower. Overall it was an enjoyable stay.

The hosts were very responsive. It was great being right next to the beach where we could swim and snorkel.

We swam every morning with fish and turtles. Our room was great other than our view was the parking lot. The road by the condo can be very noisy and the roosters start in about 4:30 AM. Othan, the maintenance person was so helpful and kind. One of our keys that ran the elevator and other doors did not work very well. There's a great library in the lobby. We've stayed here many times.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Enjoyed a relaxing week at this great condo. If you enjoy snorkeling, this is your spot. Wake up, walk outside, snorkel or swim. Unit was updated, clean, and sufficiently supplied. The only drawback was that the patio faces the parking lot (with greenery) and not the ocean. Rental price more than fair though and we did not spend much time inside.

This is a clean, comfortable property with a nice open kitchen area. We snorkeled every day at the park next door, enjoyed the restaurant across the street, and appreciated that both beds were the same quality and size.
