Hilo, Hawaii
WHY STAY ANYWHERE ELSE IN HILO BUT CLOSE TO BEACHES WHERE THE WEATHER AND SNORKELING IS BEST!!
For guests who want the cool comfort of AC when staying in our islands our beach vacation rental offers just that! While some of our guests prefer the tropical breezes, with windows and doors kept open and ceiling fans going, we realize some guests prefer and need the comfort of AC.
Our three bedroom beach house and studio units were given the name Hale Nani Ma Ka Lihi Kai which means, "Beautiful Home at the Ocean’s Edge". It was given by Kumu Hula's (teacher of hula) who visits us every year. They bring their Halau (school of dancers and musicians) to Hilo every year to compete in the World Famous Merrie Monarch Hula Festival.
Our vacation property is located a few steps from the ocean and beach where guests enjoy just lounging in the sun or swimming. Many of our guests enjoy exploring the ocean tide pools, seeing turtles feeding along the cliffs, and dolphins playing further out in the open ocean. A few minutes drive down the road there is a popular beach park Richardson's where guests also enjoy snorkeling, boogie boarding, and swimming.
Our older Kama'aina beach home includes an upstairs one bedroom unit, two bedroom downstairs unit, and an adjoining studio unit. Our beach property is very popular with multiple families who want to vacation together but have individual units for private times. There is also a large outdoor covered patio for grilling and dining. Families enjoy their evenings here while dining and listening to the ocean.
The upstairs one bedroom unit includes a queen bed in the bedroom and a queen futon sofa sleeper in one of the living rooms, full kitchen and bath, two living areas, and a large patio overlooking a pond and garden. Although, there are ceiling fans throughout, air conditioning is also available for those warm tropical nights. The downstairs unit provides a kitchen area with microwave, refrigerator and other small appliances, a living room and dining room area, full shower bath, small and large outdoor patios, and two bedrooms one with a full size bed and the other with a queen.
A walkway connects the studio unit which has a full kitchen, living and dining area, and shower bath. This unit also provides a queen bed and full size futon sofa sleeper..
There are cable TV's through out the living and bedrooms with large screen TV's in the living areas.
Our vacation rental is located in the heart of Hilo and along the ocean drive to all the beaches. It is ideal for visitors looking to visit all the popular sites on the east side of the island. The home is 5 minutes from the airport, shopping, restaurants, gardens, fish markets, and Hilo’s popular Downtown Farmer's Market. The Hawaii Volcano National Park, Waterfalls along the Hamakua coast, and Rainforest ziplines are about a 20-30 minute drive away. The world famous Arnotts’ Tours that include, Volcano, Mauna Kea Star Gazing, and other famous tours is less than a five minute walk from our home.
Come and be close to everything Hilo has to offer.

Really nice property with plenty of space for the family and great outdoor spaces. A stones throw from the beach. Gracious hosts. Well situated as a jumping off spot for Volcano National Park and the botanical gardens.
We had a wonderful stay - the property is beautiful, spacious and includes so many extras to make your stay even more wonderful. We enjoyed relaxing in the lanai and the kids were excited to use the beach equipment. Highly recommend!!
We arrived at the property and was so pleasantly surprised that it was so much more than expected! My daughter and husband arrived first, I got a text saying, “this place is AWESOME!” When my son and his family arrived, he too said this place is much nicer than expected. It had everything needed, kitchens so we’ll stocked, we will definitely return. Host was very responsive when emailed with questions, A/C worked in all rooms, and we were so very comfortable.
We had a wonderful time there, what a great place to stay comfortable. If you have a big family this place has lots of room and private. With all the separate accommodations. Close to beaches and shops. Claudia and her husband was very easy to work with. We will definitely recommend this place to family and friends ❤️ mahalo Nui Loa, Gary and Lawraleen Large
The house was beautiful. Loved the outdoor kitchen area. The house added to our wonderful Hawaii vacation!!!!!
Awesome stay. Great location. Very clean. Would stay there again.
Property was lovely and Claudia was extremely helpful. Multiple units made it the perfect place for our family trip. Great outdoor space and beach at the end of the street.
This property is better than the pictures depict. Lots of privacy and just steps away from the beach. Clean, comfortable and spacious. Our favorite parts were the singing frogs and multiple outdoor spaces. We plan to visit again.
The three separate living quarters were great. Having a common outdoor area to sit & talk or cook on grill or just sit alone to read was used by all. We had seven adults and each one were thrilled to have time to themselves or join in a group to walk five minutes to beach for great photo ops.
The photos did not do this property justice. We were blown away by the cleanliness, quietness and overall enjoyable atmosphere. We divided our family between this home and another in Hilo. We spent together time here on the patio for a reason. We will definitely recommend this home to anyone visiting Hilo. The Hamilton’s
Had a wonderful time with family here. So grateful that we found this place. Would highly recommend this place
Great for our party of 10 three families total had their own space and the outside area was a great gathering place. The home was clean and well maintained with close proximity to kid friendly beaches. The bread and bananas waiting for us were a big hit. The cove was peaceful and just a short walk from the house. Highly recommend this location especially if you need separate areas for multiple families. Only issue was the vacation was not long enough. Thank you Claudia for sharing your home.

Beautiful, well appointed property for large family or several smaller groups. We had 7 adults and two toddlers and rented all three units. Units were well decorated, comfortable and clean. Grounds were beautiful and very usable. Lots of comfortable spots to sit or eat outside. Property within walking distance of beautiful little beach park. Would definitely stay here again.
The house is quintessential Hawaiian and perfect for our group of six adults with its three separate units (and outdoor private bathroom!). The grounds, full of coconut palms, papaya trees, pineapples and orchids, is idyllic. A small beach is just steps away, a beautiful place to take a dip during high tide or explore at low tide.
Claudia’s sweet home is a perfect place for a large family or a group traveling together. After a day of exploring the Volcano National Park or hiking in the rain forest to a beautiful coastal bluff it was so nice to come “home” to Hale Nani Ma Ka Lihi Kai. Lovely amenities both inside and out. The home is well stocked and has lots of beach equipment available. Sweet touches like taro bread and bananas left for guests. Thank you so much Claudia!!
Really enjoyed the property, especially the outdoor space. The set up was perfect for our adult family, with 3 separate units for the family members to spread out and have a little room. Unfortunately we had rain our entire stay, but had it not, we would have taken advantage of the large lawn space more.
This house is immaculate. I highly recommend. It is in a fabulous location has all the amenities you need and the bread left for us was delicious and a nice extra touch. I would definitely stay there again.
