Mauna Loa Shores is ECO friendly solar powered electric!!!! You will absolutely love the condo, the amenities, the views, our Hilo town. Our piece of paradise awaits your stay. 1brm 1bth with queen size bed in brm. Full Kitchen, wifi, this condo has it all. EVEN smart TV with Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, etc. BUT the ultimate feature is Carlsmith Beach Park right next door is the best for swimming and snorkeling. Almost always sea turtles. EZ access to ocean, protected reef. Beautiful lawn with huge trees, Tide pools. Truly one of the finer spots on any of the Islands.

Hilo Town is a very special place. Not touristy like Honolulu, Maui and such, a real old Hawaii charm. Right now lava is flowing into the ocean, a sight to behold. Lava tours can be had. You will come back again and again.

Also subject to our standard contract provisions.

Starting Jan 1, 2022 our County has added an additional 3% tax due to the rising costs associated with keeping our County functioning properly.  As you know, this has been a stressful fee year for our County due to the lost revenue from the Volcano and now the Pandemic, so our County needs this to survive and provide needed services.  Our contract states that the tax is based in the taxes when your visit actually comes, so if you are arriving after Jan 1,  We are adding this additional 3% on your rent.  Mahalo for your understanding.

This property was in a beautiful location. Assigned parking was wonderful. There was a little confusion on what the Apt. Number was but the manager cleared that up. It was a little dated in the furnishings but everything was clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again. The snorkeling equipment was appreciated. Thank you for sharing with me.

Wow! What a fantastic spot to spend four nights in Hilo. The waves lulling you to sleep, walk out the back early to swim with turtles, quick trip up mountain to see volcano..... they are setting the bar high. For everywhere else. Don't miss walking Japanese gardens just down street or jungle paths next to room! We got to see Pele's glowing eyes using binoculars so generously loaned. Beautifully furnished, thank you!

We had an amazing stay at this condo. It was very clean and well organized, with everything we might need to make our stay comfortable. The view was absolutely fantastic. We enjoyed the easy walk to the lagoon to snorkel, and enjoyed stopping to admire the beautiful flowers. The hosts were very nice and very quick with communication. We hope to be back someday!

We recently stayed in Mauna Loa Shores for 4 nights. The condo was clean and nicely furnished with basic kitchen amenities. Our unit also provided beach chairs, beach towels, boogie boards, and a selection of snorkel equipment. The location is excellent as it is situated right next to Carlsmith Beach Park. It has a beautiful balcony view of the beach park and nature area directly behind the condos. In addition, there is a very good restaurant, The Seaside Restaurant, within a short walk. Assigned parking spaces are provided. The pool area is nice. The condo is located several miles from downtown Hilo which we liked since downtown Hilo seemed pretty congested most of the time. We would definitely stay at Mauna Loa Shores again.

Location was fantastic. Beach was so beautiful and we loved being able to fall asleep to the sound of the waves. Easy drive into downtown Hilo.

Great location near beautiful Hilo

The condo was very clean, quiet, and well stocked with everything we needed for a great stay. The location was perfect--next to beautiful Carlsmith Beach Park and an easy drive to downtown Hilo, groceries, shopping, and Volcano National Park. We appreciated the elevator to the condo and our assigned free parking spot when we returned from sightseeing each day. We enjoyed a beautiful, sunny week visiting the Hilo Farmers Market, the Tsunami Museum, the Lyman House and Museum, and eating at the best restaurants on the big island. Can't wait to return!

We had stayed in this building before and loved its convenience to Carlsmith beach park. This unit is small, but charming and perfect for our short stay. It was very clean and had everything we needed. We even cooked a couple of meals while we were here.If you want to see the turtles and have some sheltered snorkeling at Carlsmith Beach, this is the place.
