This location was perfect, allowing a centralized hub to visit the waterfalls, volcano, farmers market, and swimming with turtles.
The house was perfect, stocked well with some spices and a few condiments. The kids loved learning to skim on boogie boards from local children across the street.
The owner was quick to respond with questions and the house had a few maps and books to help plan our days.
We would return for sure!

Unbelievable access to the wonderful Hilo beach parks all within a mile or 2. We were up
and across the street to Richardson Beach Park everyday to see the turtles and the black sand beach in the afternoon. Richard’s house was so comfortable and had everything we needed for the beach and in the house. Loved the tropical views from all the windows and it was so quiet at night (except for the birds and the rain, which were wonderful to hear). Definitely coming back if I am lucky enough to ever come back to Hawaii again!

My husband and I enjoyed staying in this home. There’s a great view of Richardson’s Beach Park, close to downtown and was one of the best stocked houses we’ve ever stayed in.
Thank you!

This location was a perfect balance of away from it all and close enough to stores, restaurants, shopping, beaches, wind and sky to help our family unwind. We loved the house, it's vibe, it's style, and most importantly the kind support and useful information from our host. It wasn't information overload, rules to the sky, or feeling like an outsider. It was understandable fun information that improved our visit to Hilo, rules that made sense and helped us balance ourselves in this amazing place, and a sense of belonging. We were at home while away. Thanks Richard.

Wonderful location right across from the Richardson beach park, surrounded by jungle. Carlsmith beach park in easy walking distance. Roomy, comfortable house. Fans were all that were needed. Lots of fun beach gear provided. Absolutely the only criticism: sporadic hot water for showers.

Home was perfect for our family and being right across the street from Richardson black sand beach park was perfect. Even though the weather didn’t cooperate a few days, we could watch the body boarders across the street. Close to town for easy access to shopping and dining and we took trips to Kilauea and the various waterfalls. Owners were very responsive to any questions we had.

Our family was born and raised in Hilo, but needed a larger 'base camp' with in-laws, grandchildren, etc. We loved the indoor and outdoor spaces, & easy access to the beach.
