Hale Honu Steps from the Ocean at Maunaloa Shores Condo in Hilo!

Enjoy the amazing location of Hale Honu, unit 108 at Maunaloa Shores in Hilo's Keaukaha beach park area! Walk a few feet to the famous Carlsmith Beach Park where you can swim in the clear Pacific ocean. Our condo is named for the sea turtles (called 'honu' in Hawaiian) that frequent our beach. This unit is on the first floor above the lobby is accessed through the building's secure elevators. You'll have views of the swimming pool below and glimpses of the ocean beyond. The surrounding area is lush and green with lovely jungle views from the lanai.

Hale Honu has two bedrooms and one bathroom and sleeps and sleeps up to four guests. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking appliances, range, oven, a full sized refrigerator, dishwasher and a full set of dishes etc. Pick up local seafood and produce from one of Hilo's fresh food markets. Eat at our dining table for four or on the covered condo lanai. Both bedrooms offer a closet and a dresser for clothes storage. The oceanside bedroom has a king sized bed. The second bedroom has a queen sized bed. The bathroom is between the two bedrooms and has a full bathtub with shower, toilet and one sink.

Visit Hilo, Hawaii which still exudes the original charm of 'old Hawai'i' with lush jungle landscapes, ocean parks for relaxing in the Pacific Ocean, colorful farmer's markets with loads of tropical fruits, and enough great restaurants and quaint shops to fill several weeks of exploring. Don't forget to drive to Volcanoes National Park about 45 minutes by car to experience the wonders of an active Volcano. And drive up the Hamakua Historic Coastal Corridor to view dashing waterfalls and plantation era villages. This is where Hawai'i lives!

The condo itself was cozy, clean, and very secure. Despite no a/c, tge breeze from the ocean and ceiling fans kept us very comfortable. The pool was nice as well, and laundry room steps from the unit. The location was great as well, less than 10 minutes from Hilo airport and town. I would recommend this to anyone staying on this side of the island.

The location of this rental is perfect! Carl smith is literally steps away, and we had so much fun taking my daughter to explore different areas. There’s an excellent restaurant across the street and it’s close to many other main Hilo spots. Rooms are spacious and comfortable, building feels very safe, and there were lots of fun extras like beach and pool toys, pack and play, etc. The neighbors and other folks in the building were kind and welcoming. Check in was quite easy and straightforward, and we were quickly welcomed by our on island contact via text. We would stay again. Only issues were construction right outside the unit with scaffolding in front of the balcony and workers coming and going and making quite a bit of noise at times, but I assume this is temporary and will be done soon.

It was an enjoyable stay.

Just steps from a fantastic beach, and a short walk to several others. The unit is in a great location, secure, and quite comfortable. The Wi-Fi works well. The kitchen had everything we needed. You can be at grocery stores, restaurants, and farmers' markets within a short drive. I'd stay here again.
