About this property
Nice And Cozy Apartment On The Municipal Golf Course In Hilo
Our half acres property is located directly on the Big Island's only open-to-the-public Hilo Municipal Golf Course, in the southern part of Hilo.
We have our Main House in front and towards the back an 800 sq-ft Studio and Lanai facing East, with a direct view onto our garden and fruit tree orchard. Our orchard contains various seasonal fruits like papayas, starfruit, lychee, Jabuticaba, and more.
Our central location gives you great access to all of East Hawaii's various activities.
Just 7-15 min. away you have all of Hilo's shopping and dining opportunities. The historic part of Hilo Downtown with it's Hilo Farmer Market, Just Cruisin Coffee, and Ou Thai Food (on the farmers market with great Thai Green Papaya Salad), just mention a small few.
Just 10-30 min. away you have access to Hilo's beaches, surfing, hiking, spelunking, waterfalls, and the Big Island's great attraction, the Lava Flowing into the Ocean.
Just 25-45 min. away to the South, you have access to the Big Island's Volcano National Park, and Hawaii's Volcano Winery just around the corner.
And to the North, the Hamakua Coast's Hawaii Tropical Batanical Garden, Hawaii's only and very quaint Laupahoehoe Train Museum, and the incredible Waipi'o Valley.
Or just stay at home and go play a round golf, at the island's only open-to-the-public golf course, the "Hilo Municipal Golf Course".
We also include garage parking accommodations to keep you dry, if it rains.

About the host
Hosted by Ingrid & Amon Faltstrom
We are a family of four. We have a daughter and a son. The house owner is born and raised here on the Big Island. His wife is from Germany.
Why they chose this property
This house is now 30 years owned by the family. It is passed on through the generations of the house owners family. The house itself is an old Plantation house style building. This means it is the old style they build houses here on the island 50 years ago. In the last year the house underwent major renovations and rebuilding to make it much nicer and also a little bid bigger. The location is a nice, secure and quiet neighborhood on the golf driving range. That makes this house and location as a vacation rental quite unique.
What makes this property unique
This apartment is perfect for families. We love it because it is nice and cozy. The view out of the wonderful and special windows in the dinning area show hibiscus flowers in different colors and different fruit trees, also pineapples and taro.
