This rental is a great value. It definitely is not a luxury rental, but it is directly across from the beach, safe and somewhat clean.
It's warm during the day, but cools down at night.
The home was about a 15 min drive from Hilo Town... about 4.5 miles. (longer than i realized).
2nd bathroom is old, not renovated and only accessible through a bedroom.
Kitchen is well stocked but NO DISHWASHER.
Overall, it's a great value for your money. Nice area with other (better) beaches 5 mins away.
