My three sisters and I stayed here while attending Merrie Monarch. It was just perfect for us, and we absolutely loved the view.

The windows were filthy and hard to see the view because of that. The trash was left inside and smelled very bad

Need more working windows. No A/C made it pretty hot in the afternoon.

Incredible views atop 80 foot cliff overlooking Hilo bay. Coqui frogs at night sung us to sleep. Awesome!

Sadly, the town of Hilo does not have the charm, restaurants and nightlife that Kona has. However, we loved coming to this side of the island to see the waterfalls, lava tubes, and do the Umauma Falls Zipline Experience. That place was so great! But there is little to the town of Hilo itself. High crime rate, homeless encampments, tons of abandoned shops, etc. Sad how great it could be. That being said, that makes this house a good sanctuary away from the town. Close enough to get places, but away enough to feel safer. The pictures do not do it justice. Both floors look straight out to the ocean front. Stunning mornings and days just sitting on the porch relaxing. At night time, there are frogs that chirp like a cross between birds and broken smoke detectors. Our first night was the worst. Or we got used to it. That was the only surprise. And there is no AC, which doesn't matter when we went in May, because of the ocean breeze. But if it was super hot out, you would wish they had an AC. Great house, nice stay. Great value, but you will likely be making meals in the house, not sitting at ocean front restaurants like we did in Kona.

We had a good stay at this property which is in a perfect location if anyone stays on the east side of the island. The space was enormous and we were able to have our separate areas. Although the master is a loft style master with openness in a unique way. I would’ve loved to give this property however the BBQ was not ideal. The booking site said it had a BBQ which we would’ve like to use each night. What it failed to disclose (until we arrived) was that it was a charcoal grill (no supplies were supplied). Also it was made clear that IF we used the BBQ we had to clean it and if we didn’t clean it well enough we’d be charged a $30 fee. I asked the property management a question re:placemats when we arrived and got no response in the four days we were there. Lovely property. Less than communicative manager.

One bedroom with walks a d a door. The other 3 beds in a large “dormitory” room…. Not conducive to any privacy.

This place was great, but the pictures in the listing aren't up-to-date. We are avid readers, and one main reason we selected this property for just the two of us was picture 14/25 showing two "lounge chairs" with ottomans in the MBR overlooking the wonderful view. Those chairs are no longer there, but have been replaced by two low-backed occasional chairs which are decorative but not really functional. Picture 15/25 indicated an office off the MBR, so we brought our laptop, hoping to catch up on a few things. The desk is no longer there, replaced by a single twin bed so the MBR can now sleep a total of four people, if so desired. As instructed, we contacted the local host rep before checking in. We had hoped to check-in an hour early, but were unable to make contact either by phone or e-mail. We contacted the Evolve management team to straighten this out, and they suggested we text the local rep instead. We did, and she eventually did respond, but only after the official check-in time had come and gone and we had actually entered the property. There were a number of minor maintenance issues to which we alerted the Evolve team upon departure.

Property is well located and views from Primary Bedroom, Kitchen and Living Room are amazing. Lots of outdoor spots to enjoy.
Nice balance of being close to town and a bit away to enjoy some of the beauty of the Big Island.

Very well kept! Lots of updates to this older home but very nice! A private hedge lined driveway hides the home from the street and then Open the front door and BAM that gorgeous view! No AC but not at all necessary in June with all the ceiling fans and ocean breeze. 5 min drive to Hilo and nice eclectic neighborhood. Plenty of spots to enjoy the view inside and out, plenty of space for this family of 5 to spread out and enjoy!

Ein tolles Haus mit einer wunderschönen Lage! Wer mag es nicht, bei Wellenrausche einzuschlafen? Wunderbar!
Das Haus ist der Meeresluft ausgesetzt, was man leider an einigen Orten deutlich sieht. Die Küche sollte erneuert werden. Alles in allem wäre ein wenig TLC nötig.:) Ansonsten wäre es sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet & gebaut!

Well, Hilo is not the most exciting part of the island, if you go there don't expect the tropical beaches. The city is a bit run down and the restaurant selection is extremely limited.
The property is Ok, it can you some upgrades in the kitchen and a proper maintainance of the garden. It has a good location, great view, spacious and can accomodate 4 maybe 5 people. If you want to explore that part of the island 3-4 day will be sufficient

The property is stunning. I can’t rave enough about the grounds, the views, and the location. However three days of three trimming by very poor tree trimmers who left debris EVERYWHERE, plus forced us to endure hours of chainsaw and leaf blower noise assaulting our ears makes me hesitant to ever return. And it took a while when I complained about it to even hear from the property manager. I’m not even convinced that the manager knew the tree trimming was going on, which makes you wonder who’s running this place. This plus the fact that you could not walk on the floor barefoot or you would feel like you had soap or some kind of sticky substance all over your feet makes me not inclined to return unless I’m desperate. But the views!!!!! The whales!!!!! I saw four spouts shoot up in one moment. If I were to come back, I would have to hire my own house cleaner to clean the place. If noise and dirt don’t bother you, I highly recommend because the views and location are astounding.

Awesome view of the ocean with the morning sun rising. No sunset but who would care with the view you have. Almost 180 degree view from the the 3 lanais. We were able to watch whales every morning and every evening. Several cruise ships came and went during our stay. There was plenty of space that could of housed two families comfortable. The house was in need of some cosmetic updates and a few repairs but not enough to distract from our stay. Overall a great location.

We loved our stay! Having the ocean in the backyard was a first for us. We loved listening to the sound of the ocean and watching the sunrise from the master bedroom and main living area. The singing coqui frogs at night are something to get used to but waking up to those views made it all worth it. Would definitely stay here again.

Moldy, filthy and worn out! Totally unacceptable to the point of being fearful to stay at this location. Had to seek safe accommodations to stay at on spur of the moment. VRBO will mostlikely not post the truth about this location because this property had to be in disrepair for years to be in this condition,

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. It's an interesting construction that has personality (and I personally like a split-level with glass block everywhere, old soul I guess). You can't beat the view, hard to be more on the water (top of a cliff though, not a beach). We did appreciate the beach equipment that was available in the garage, and being able to actually park in the garage as well. I'd recommend backing in though as backing out going up the driveway is harrowing with a wider vehicle. We were really impressed with the location, such a beautiful setting and only 10 minutes from the middle of Hilo. Who needs to stop at a scenic overlook when you can lay in bed and get the same view?

The property and grounds were beautiful, and a great base location for taking trips into Hilo or beyond. We enjoyed spending time nearby at Honoli’i Beach Park to watch the surfers and sunrise.
