The Hilo studio was wonderful. The unit is newly constructed and is clean, bug free, and well done.The location is super quiet and very tropical. It’s a great spot for relaxation and the jungle sounds put you right to sleep. It is a short walk to town with coffee and amenities. We loved our time on the big island and this place was a great home base for us.

Great property, perfect location

If you want to feel like you’re in the rainforest, but also want to be close to town, then this is for you! It’s very close to Old Town Hilo, but doesn’t feel it at all. It’s very pretty and well equipped. Beds sleep great. Great directions for parking and checking in which was done through pictures. Would recommend again and again!

Lovely space in a private neighborhood

The rental is a studio with bathroom but no cooking capability ( toaster, minifridge, and microwave though). Host was very responsive and set us up with plates, bowls upon request. Outside the room it is like jungle with coqui frogs chirping all night. We loved the sound, so didn't bother us. Size of space is really only suitable for 2. Location was perfect- close to town and only 45 min to Volcanoes National Park. Would stay here again! Location

Super cool and quiet location in Hilo

We loved this spot. We’ve looked at renting for years and hadn’t, but finally did, and it was a joy. The sounds of she jingle in the evening were great, and we had what we needed to enjoy the 3 days we were there.

About the host

Hosted by Hannah Lidahl

Host profile image
Aloha, my name is Hannah and I’m looking forward to hosting you here in Hilo! The Big Island has always felt like a home away from home to me because of family ties. My mom was actually born in Hilo so this town has always been a special place for us to visit and spend time with relatives. I am now living here with my partner Tanner. We both have had many worldly adventures that allowed us to stay at lots of cool airbnbs which helped us to create our own oasis here to share with others :) I’m originally from a small town in Minnesota but have spent the last couple of years in Seattle studying Medical Anthropology & Global Health at the University of Washington Seattle and whitewater rafting. Most of our time now is spent outside exploring new places. Hope to see you soon!
