Summary: The location for our son's college graduation was perfect! The view on the back deck is great!The house itself needs TLC - dining chairs wobbly, kitchen chair broken, needs a deep cleaning (walls, tub, appliances, window ledges, all dirty). Ran into at LEAST 10 Geicos in the kitchen & living room - maybe normal for Hawaii - but not something I've experienced in other tropical areas.It's a very noisy location, as expected. Close to everything & owner/property mgr very responsive.

Summary: I grew up here on the Big Island and swim often in the ice pond. I have always wanted to stay in this beautiful home and am so incredibly happy I finally got the chance. This home is a beautiful old style home. There is major renovation needs but overall it was perfect!! My ohana and I will cherish the memories we made FOREVER!! We also appreciated the kyaks that were there!! We brought our own paddle boards and kyak but the ones you have are so much fun!!! I hope to stay here again in the near future!!!!

Summary: We love this place. It was so accessible to the bay and very cozy bedrooms very clean huge kitchen.
Lisa A. Apr 28, 2025 05:45:33 AM
Summary: House was very nice and clean, it’s an older house so some of the floorboards were sinking. Bathrooms have nice showers, beds are super comfortable. Plenty towels. In the kitchen, plenty pans, pots, coffee pot, slow cooker, and a cabinet with seasonings, oil, etc. Was a little disappointed that there was no stand up paddle boards as pictured. In the evening, the business across the main road runs generators so can be a bit noisy if you leave the windows open. Two suggestions to improve: Less house keys, some of the doors had 2 different keys for the knob and the deadbolt. The other would be instructions for the televisions, each of them had 3 remotes and we had a lot of trouble trying to figure out how to use them. FYI the wash machine is coin operated, so bring quarters.

Summary: My family loved the bay access! Saw turtles in the bay. The home does have a lot of road noise as it's on a main road and a shipping factory in front of it, but still very enjoyable! Great check in and out
Bonnie K. Apr 3, 2025 03:16:05 AM
Summary: The house worked out perfect for our group- we came for work, working with the local schools.
Cammie W. Mar 26, 2025 03:38:02 AM
Summary: Richard was excellent to work with. We had a team of 2 guys come from the mainland to work. They loved the house and the view/experience on the bay. Check In/Out was easy and well communicated. Thank you, Richard. We will make sure to find your property for our future projects. Thank you so much!

Summary: Good area
Gerry M. Mar 5, 2025 04:04:23 AM
Summary: Unique location on the water of Reed's Bay and surrounded by a koi pond. Very convenient location to downtown Hilo, Queen Liliuokalani Gardens, keiki beaches and restaurants. However it is also across from the industrial district of Hilo and the Hilo Airport. The noise was an initial concern but the water access and central location more than made up for any disturbances. Our family enjoyed catching frogs, fish and shrimp, kayaking in the bay and heading to our nearby keiki beaches for more water play.

Summary: This VRBO is very unique! The description and other reviews basically tell you all you need to know. If you are looking for luxury, this is not your place. If you are looking for rustic, quirky and unique, you've found it! The location was great with it being close to everything in Hilo and the water access is wonderful. Remie, the co-host, was very responsive and good to work with. We enjoyed watching the koi and the little turtle in the pond under the house, and the visits from geckos inside the house. The road noise and airplanes can be drowned out with the AC and floor fans in the house. The only thing that was not mentioned in the description is that the washing machine is coin-op. So bring your quarters! We enjoyed our stay here.
