Great Stay in a Convenient and Clean Hilo Home

This vacation house was very convenient to all the attractions we visited. The KTA Super Store is just a few minutes’ drive away, making it easy to grab anything we needed. The room was spotless—clearly well cared for—and had almost all the facilities we wanted. Even without air conditioning, the fan was more than enough. Our family really enjoy a wonderful 3-day stay here!

Our Month in Hilo

The house was clean, comfortable and very well equipped but located between two busy streets, so there was a fair amount of traffic noise, not to mention an annoying dog across the street that often woke us in the early morning with his barking. The house is located in a very modest neighborhood at the south end of town about a 10-15 minute drive to the center of Hilo. All the appliances worked perfectly and the TV/wi-fi service was excellent. Vaughn was helpful and answered our questions promptly. All in all we have no complaints, but if you're looking for upscale living, this is not it.

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.
