Quiet tucked away place pretty central to Hilo. Easy to go north or south for adventures. Tanner was very quick to get us a bottle opener and glasses and then extra coffee for the morning. Only noise came from the frogs 🐸

Having stayed at this property in the past, we went out of our way to vacation in Hilo in order to take a much needed break from the hustle of tourism in Hawaii!! The hosts are incredibly friendly and very accommodating of our special requests. Reed's Island is an oasis within the bayfront area of Hilo. Highly recommend this rental!

We loved our stay at Reeds island. It was drizzly during our stay so the covered parking was incredible. The space was extremely clean and welcoming. The bed is so comfortable. Hearing the soothing coquis the first night brought me so much nostalgia from when we lived on island. The hosts are super sweet and accommodating. We would stay again!

Very clean. Very nice grounds and interior. Didn’t meet owner but she immediately and always replied to our inquiries. We had a few questions as first time users of VRBO. But be aware property is located almost at end of narrow lane. Would stay there again.

After booking our host remained in regular contact. She couldn’t have been helpful/informative. This continued after our arrival. Nothing was too much trouble. It made our stay in Hilo quite exceptional Thank

Great Hideaway
Hannah and Tanner have a great place down a deadend, 1 lane road, in a beautiful and intimate neighborhood. The room is great, wood floors, cathedral ceiling, tiled bathroom, a/c, TV, etc. They are less than a mile from downtown Hilo. Don't be shy on asking them for advice on what's happening in the area - great communicators. Awesome place to call your base on the Hilo side.

This place is amazing!!! It is exactly like the pictures and the description on the website. The host was very easy to get in touch with and responded quickly. We will definitely stay here on our next trip to Hawaii. Our only complaint is we didn’t get to stay longer this trip.

Amazing in every way!
Wow!! What a treat to stay here. It’s only a short drive from town, but you feel like you’re in a tropical rainforest! We slept with our windows open at night to hear the birds, frogs, and even the river! The room is gorgeous!! Highly recommend this place!!! My husband is hard to impress … and he kept saying how much he liked it.

Peaceful!
I stay in Hilo about 6 times a year for work and this is my new go-to rental. Location is excellent, safe and cozy. Beautiful surroundings and view. Most stays I've had in Hilo included these little tiny termite looking things and there were none to be found here. The sounds of the tropics at night were a dream for good sleep. Comfortable bed. Sink being outside of the shower room took a little getting use to but was fine. Host was very sweet! Will definitely stay again and highly recommend!
