We loved our stay at Roxanne’s Beach House. It was close to Hilo but also provided a great location to chill on the lanai when we got home, or barbecue in the backyard. Listening to the coqui frogs and rain at night was so relaxing. She provided plenty of cooking supplies if you want to cook at home, plus there were coolers that allowed us to have a nice picnic at Carlsmith Beach. The Haena Beach Trail that starts near her house is a must-do!
