Carla and Joe's place was absolutely amazing! It's the perfect location for being able to walk around and access all that Hilo has to offer. While it is rainy there, the tropical rain is warm and certainly didn't stop us from walking to the downtown to explore all that there is to see. Carla and Joe's is also just a short drive to Volcano National Park, Waimea, Waikoloa Beach, and so many other destinations on the island. It was spacious, clean and had a very well stocked kitchen that had absolutely everything we could have thought of. There are even some extra beach items in the closet for general use! It was a lovely place to stay and made the last leg of our trip so enjoyable.
