Simon & Jeri are wonderful! Communication is outstanding , house is amazing and location is relaxing. Host are welcoming without being on property they opened our garage and unlocked the door when we arrived. Also provided some chocolates, reusable bag which we made great use of and a welcome note. This made us so comfortable and was a great start to our stay.
House is filled with all the necessities youll need. Literally just bring food & drinks. Closest store open 24 hours is 711 be aware markets close early in Hilo. I would advise you to stop before heading up to rental once you arrive you wont want to leave.
Full kitchen with everything needed to make a beautiful family dinner. Keric & regular coffee maker is provided. From dishes , bowls, blenders,rice pot you have everything you would need in a kitchen. No grill which the weather is on the wet side so that orobabky wouldnt work out Charger ports through the whole house this was very convient. Living room couches very comfortable and spacious. Does not pull on to a bed just in case you would be using for a guest sleeping space. Television is updated you can watch some netflix and enjoy a family movie night Wifi connection works amazing. Just a FYI hilo & konas reception may be zero to none in many areas depending on your carrier we have tmobile. All bed in rooms are very comfortable host even provide house slippers and robes to use during your stay. Flooring in house is wood so keeps your feet nice and warm. Each room has a desk area if needed to do something requiring a desk. Our kids made good use of it.
Master bedroom has suprise in the restroom lets leave a little hint no toilet paper needed 😉
Home has a front little balcony big enough to sit and have a cup of coffee in the morning . You wont be able to see a view though dont want to get your hopes up this home is in a neighborhood your view is your neighbors. We enjoyed it very peaceful, constantly raining which we love ! There is a garage so you will stay dry. Lastly home comes with a washer& dryer which is amazing not many airbnbs provide that. Overall this host goes beyond excellent to provide an amazing , comfortable and clean home for their guest! If i could rate this place it would be a 10 plus. Families perfect pick. The frogs on reviews i seen before staying here didnt bother us. If you leave the t.v. on , a.c. which is in everyone room by the way and have kids making noise they wont bother you. We only heard them when we were outside you can goggle the way they sound coqui frog. Also the roosters arent that bad which Ive read on other reviews. Lastly this home is not in the heart of the town its off the grid a bit so dont be shocked when driving a bit off the main road. Becareful for the speed bumps when coming up the hill they may not be visible at night .
Cant wait to visit Hilo again we definitely will be booking this airbnb again !
