I moved to Hawaii and built my home after the loss of my husband over 11 years ago. At the time my sister and brother both lived here which was part of the draw to Hawaii. I love this little piece of property in paradise where my brother and I built this little bungalow. I believe you will be able to relax and enjoy the beauty of Hawaii. There is a lot to see here on the east side of Hawaii so come on over and enjoy!! I have since moved back to the mainland because of my health. The Beach Road House is a stand alone house. There is plenty of parking for the guests on a concrete drive-way. Traveler has access to all parts of the house, except the maintenance closet, which is locked and in the carport). My assistant, Jessica, and I are both available to answer any questions regarding the house or local area. Staying in my Guest Home, you will feel comfortable, safe, and somewhat secluded. You will be approximately 1 mile from the ocean. Travel south on Beach Road (away from Kaloli) 1/2 mile and go past Paradise Park Road and park where you can and watch the ocean take your cares away. Very nice overview of what my home has to offer you. Depending on the time of year you visit you might be able to catch a whale breach. Of course, there are great areas in Hilo to visit. It is best if you use a rental vehicle while on the island. My Beach Road House is located approximately 13 miles from Hilo. It's sandwiched between the towns of Keaau and Pahoa. Both towns are nice little towns where Keaau is more business like and Pahoa is an artists town. Both were sugar cane towns and both are nice in their own way. A map will be left to look through. When I first moved here I used my GPS on my phone. Best way to get around by far! For our guests convenience we have included two boogie boards, two snorkel sets, several beach mats, 2 coolers (one small and one medium size), beach towels.
