What a lovely home situated on the secluded Reed's Island just a 10-15 minute walk into Hilo town. We enjoyed listening to the waterfall and the frog orchestra at night. I've read in previous reviews that some guests were bothered by the frog noise...not so with us. The house was very clean, the beds comfortable, the showers fantastic. Forget about using the driveway, just park in the parking strip at the top and walk down the steep driveway to the house. The geckos inside and out were entertaining and very cute. It rained most of the day one day and we just hung out reading on the porch...perfect. The only drawback to the rental is the gazebo and pool at the Falls are unusable. We found the steps to the lower area totally doable but the bottom is in a state of disrepair. Very slippery rotting logs, the pool filled with algae, the gazebo dirty and covered in mildew. Initially this was a disappointment to us, but then settled in and enjoyed the other amenities of the property. We highly recommend Aloha Falls as a lovely retreat in Hilo town.
