We visit Hilo twice a year and this is by far the best accommodation we have ever stayed in. The house and the views look exactly as they look in the pictures. The house is very clean, the furniture is new. The beds are comfortable. Downtown is a 2 minutes walk away, but the house feels still secluded. It is absolute ocean front, so you hear the surf. All rooms are equipped with A/C so you can close the windows and block out the sound of the ocean if you prefer. The host was very friendly and easy to communicate with.
