What a gem!! After deciding on a semi last minute trip to Hilo, I was in a bind to find a place to stay. I had originally wanted to book Maria's other listing, the private suite for sister and I to stay in but that booked up before I had the chance. Maria recommended her Palm Cove private house and I and I am so glad she did! For the weekend we had palm cove to ourselves and it was the right size, location, and price point for my Hilo getaway. It's a cozy house that comfortably fits two people with one bathroom, living room, and kitchen. We were able to buy groceries and snacks and utilized the kitchen to its best. The lanais at night are perfect for listening to coqui frogs and walking along in the morning. Maria and Steve were AMAZING!! They were acommodating and flexible as I tried to get myself organizanized with planning my stay and kept in communication with me the whole time. I can't tell you how reassuring that is. The property is beautiful and serene! My sister and I also enjoyed the company of the family dogs. Every time I travel to Hilo, Maria and Steves' will be my go to spot for a place to stay. THANK YOU both again for helping making my stay in Hilo absolutely perfect!
