The property was very nice and tidy. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the closeness to everything. We stay 10 days for the IVF Va’a World Sprints and it was a great place to stay and chill out after racing.

Convenient clean gathering home
We chose this home focused on accessibility for a relative with difficulty with steps and use of wheelchair. Worked out wonderfully! Had 15 people over, very comfortable. Very homey, back porch with awning and BBQ grill. The open floor plan and single step to get in the house was great.

Home away from home
Nice house with all the amenities. We enjoyed our stay yet it must be noted that the home is located within a couple of blocks of two main roads. This made it easy to get to and from the house but there was a lot of traffic noise. All considered, we would stay again. Great host.

This home was everything we needed for a work trip in Hilo. The rain had our project delayed, and the property managers were so helpful and communicative to try and be as flexible with us as possible to accommodate our situation when it came to extending our stay. Thanks Vaughn!

Would recommend
Great house, awesome spacious backyard with fruit trees. This house was the best stocked home we stayed in. Everything was nicely updated with everything you might need for your stay, they even had a small rice cooker. My kids loved the spacious backyard and they loved picking fruit in the mornings. The only negatives are the trash situation which you have to take your own trash to the transfer station but I guess it’s expected for the area. And you must clean up before you leave and strip all bedding and still pay a cleaning fee. But that wasn’t a big deal for me because I’m kinda a clean freak. Overall, I would highly recommend this house. It’s very spacious, it also has a covered laundry area and a covered patio. Vaughn was also quick to respond to any questions Don’t hesitate and just book it!

Quick getsway
Entire process was pretty easy. Stay was goid. Only negative was the shower....although nice and stylish, it was a small walkin type with no doors/curtains so the entire floor outside of the shower was wet. Other then that, stay was good.

It was conveniently located with a supermarket nearby. We received a reminder about check-out procedure including sheets and towels which we did not see in the manual received in advance. It would have been better if it had been included in the manual sent before check-in.

Who let the dogs out?
Some mention road noise as an issue, but it was not too noticeable most of the time. The real noise issue in this neighborhood are the sixty or seventy dogs that live across the street and bark all evening, but it turns out, this is something you can get used to. Sometimes a rooster wanders into the unfenced backyard around 3-8am and calls loudly as well, but also not a major issue for us. All of the check-in and check-out protocols are clearly defined and uncomplicated. No AC, of course, but even during a relatively hot stretch for Hilo, the ceiling fans kept things manageable. Would recommend against only for those highly sensitive to (dog!) noise, otherwise this is a solid rental.

Hilo getaway
Had a wonderful time. The property was centrally located close to shops/restaurants/beaches. The house was clean and spacious with a well stocked kitchen. The garden was huge and provided us with yummy bananas and oranges. There was only a minor inconvenience-no closet/dresser in one of the bedrooms

Hilo adventure
The property is exactly as shown. Vaughn responded swiftly to any concerns. The house is quite close to a major roadway resulting in some traffic noise sporadically during the day, sometimes well into the evening. But this roadway is also the main route to much of the shopping and restaurants in and around Hilo, so we were OK with the trade-off. Vaughn also offered us some fresh fruit from trees on the property, which was very kind of him. Our thanks to him for allowing us to use the property for our extended winter stay, it was a trip we will long remember.

Convenient Location to Enjoy the Hilo Area
The accommodations at Vaughn’s were perfect for us. It was conveniently located with easy access to supermarkets and local food options. We were able to travel up and down the Hilo coast to enjoy so many nature activities, marked and unmarked hiking trails, waterfalls and secluded beaches. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
