Beautiful house!

We loved the character and amenities of the house! Nice large space for 2 couples. Kitchen amenities were far better than other properties we stayed at. I would recommend updating the mattresses as we all ended up with some ack pains. I would strongly recommend this house!

A Dream Vacation

Four generations of women stayed at the Beaches House for a week. Communication with the owner, along with instructions and local recommendations were excellent. The house was very clean, and had absolutely everything we needed for a comfortable stay! Large enough for us not to feel cramped, but plenty of options for gathering in the same location. We seemed to spend most of our time on the porch with the wonderful ocean view. The location of the house can’t be beat. Close to the best snorkeling, waterfalls, and the Farmer’s market. Volcano National Park is just a 40 minute drive. We wouldn’t change anything about our stay, and can’t wait to return! Highly recommend this house!!!

Fun in Hilo

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!

So close to great beach parks

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!

Great place to unwind

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.

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.

Great location but…

Pros: - Fantastic location! We loved being across from Richardson's Beach and could see sea turtles there! - Fully stocked home. Great to have snorkel gear. Cons: (Most of these may not bother others) - Screens are in need of repair or replacement. Since there are sizeable gap between the screens and frame, at least four geckos came into the home and several bugs. - Mattresses sag and should be replaced, particularly on the 2nd floor. Our old backs needed firmer support. - No A/C ... and it's pretty muggy in July. So while the house cools at night, it can be stifling to come back to rest in the afternoon.

Great location.

This property is everything described in the listing except it is definitely NOT a luxury property. So before Richard berates and disagrees with me, I’ll just state the obvious—this review is a fair description of my experience and isn’t meant to agree or disagree with anyone else. The house structure is not well maintained, particularly the windows—although some are in working condition, others have broken or missing screens and in the first floor bathroom there is a screen but no window. This may account for the bugs and small lizards in the house. The house is hot, even with the use of the very loud, very strong whole house fan. You have to sleep with the windows open and the ceiling and room fans on to get any ventilation—the house usually cools down by 2am. Between the fans and tree frogs it could be difficult to fall asleep if noise bothers you. The pictures in the listing don’t reflect the current state of the property, it seems they are from the renovation done 10 years ago. The bed configuration is definitely different, the description is accurate, not the pictures. On the first floor there is a king size mattress on a queen headboard and in a separate room 2 twin beds. On the second floor there is a king size bed in the room and twin beds in the closet so you have to walk through one room to get to the other. A great arrangement when traveling with young children. The house needs a deep clean. I had a lot of trouble getting email prior to our stay and Richard was exceptionally responsive in getting me the door code and other information I needed. He has also prepared a notebook about the area. It is in the dining room and definitely worth looking at. Lots of suggestions for activities. The Wi-Fi is the best I’ve had in a rental—strong and consistent signal. Many folks did not sign out of their streaming service so there are plenty to chose from including Netflix and Disney plus if you don’t mind using someone else’s subscription. Towels are plentiful, kitchen items and pantry are more than sufficient to get you started. The shower water is heated using solar energy; even though it was mostly cloudy during our 4 day stay there was no problem with having sufficient hot water for 4 adults. Plenty of parking and space to turn around so you aren’t backing out onto a busy road. There are lots of beachy-things and a grill available to use, although we did not have time to use them.

This beach house was perfect! Views of the ocean right across the street. Large windows all around the house for natural lighting. Everything you could want and more in a rental property. Fully stocked everything! From the kitchen with all cooking accessories and supplies at your disposal, bathroom necessities, and washer and dryer needs. Kids loved the nature books and board games. Having all the streaming services available was great! Especially Disney+! Having the washer and dryer in house was really convenient. Multiple beaches within a 5 minute drive. There were kayaks, stand up paddles boards, inflatables, boogie boards, and a whole storage area in the garage full of other outdoor goodies. The drive to Hilo was short and easy as were all the sights in the area. Overall, I would definitely stay at this property again. I would also love to check out the 4 other properties the owner has in Hilo. They look amazing as well!

Location was beautiful, it is right across the street from Richardsons Beach Park. We could just walk across the street to enjoy the ocean and tide pools. We also enjoyed going to Carl Smith Beach Park about a mile down the road. The property manager was very responsive, we were in need of a high chair and they delivered one on that day. They were also very helpful with a piece of luggage that was accidentally left at the home. They went out of their way to get is shipped back to us. It is a little noisy on the weekend. There were motorcycles that seemed to enjoy making as much noise as possible as they went down the street. The home is in some need of care. The railing on the steps looks to be rusted to the point that if someone leaned up against it, it would break off. The windows in living room and dining room are rusted to the point where they can not be closed.

Location is beautiful!

The house was perfect! We spent most of our 4 days/time on the lanai overlooking the koi pond and at Richardson’s Beach park directly across the street. We found everything we needed to make our stay like home. The kitchen has everything needed, plenty of towels, and beach toys! The beds were comfortable and depending on the heat, we found the upstairs bedroom perfect for a breeze and listening to the ocean waves. During the day, we kept the windows closed with only the “floor” windows open which kept the house at a comfortable temperature and used the provided fans. If we had to change anything - refuse to check out and having the ability to feed the koi. 😀 Richard was quick to respond to our questions and very easy to work with prior to our arrival. We would definitely rent this house again!
