Awesome place to stay!!!!

We're a family of 4 with extended family in Hilo so we wanted a big place where everyone could gather together... this house had plenty of room for everyone, was very well stocked, and was great for little kids and big ones! The pool and hot tub area was a highlight for the kids... and we liked that the house was close to all the great places to visit. The house is right across the street from the ocean and on a great little street for walking.... its close enough to Hilo for major shopping but still far enough out of town that you feel like you can completely get away from all the hussle and bussle... it has a wonderful lanai where you can sit and hear the ocean waves... it was very clean with lots of extra bedding and towels... all the beds and bedding were very comfortable... the kitchen has plenty of dishes and cooking supplies for a large group of people... and the yard was a great area for the kids to pick coconuts, chase geckos and catch frogs.

This house and Hilo are definately great vacation spots!! We will definately be back!!!

Great Vacation Home

Overall the home was excellent and very much as advertised. We had a large group of 9 with ages ranging from 2 years to 80 years old. Everyone loved the house, its remote and peaceful location and the spaciousness of this two story home. We had home cooked breakfasts everyone morning and the kitchen was well equipped with dishes, cups, and utensils. The children loved the pool. And I was appreciative of the responsiveness of the handiman. Everyone in our party agreed we would stay here again and recommend this property to others. The owner was very prompt in responding to me from the start of the booking process to the return of our deposit.

A few tips: the outside stairs up to the front door and the stairs in the house leading down to the lower level are very steep so care should be taken with very young and very old. The hot water for the washer is stale so you should only use cold water to wash clothes to avoid odor on your clean clothes.

This was my first time booking through ARBO. It was an excellent experience.

My four employees and myself rented your home and couldn't be happier. The space, the jacuzzi and pool as well as the location to the ocean cliffs made our "work" trip a total success. We look forward to our next Hilo "work trip"

Mahalo!!!
