Hamakua Hale Ohana Country Retreat
Welcome to Hale Ohana home away from home! This charming and classic three-bedroom 50’s rural home is just outside Hilo (four miles to the edge of downtown), making it a reasonable accommodation for a family or group of friends. Conveniently located on the Hawaii Belt Road, this home is very close to the start of the four-mile scenic drive. The Hawai’ian Tropical Botanical Gardens and Onomea Bay are just over a mile away. It is ideally located for people visiting the Hamakua Coast (Akaka Falls, and even the Waipio Valley).
Back at home, guests have access to a fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a washer/dryer, WiFi should you need to plug in, and Cable TV. The sound of the stream flowing below the hillside can be heard from two of the bedrooms while the neighbor’s goats and cows frolicking in their expansive yard to the south set the scene for the home’s rural environment. And not to mention, the coqui frogs singing their symphony every evening. The cozy living room offers comfortable furnishings and is the perfect place to retreat after a day of adventure.

About the area
Hilo, Hawaii, is a delightful city that provides a unique mix of natural splendor, cultural depth, and adventurous pursuits. Situated on the east side of the Big Island, Hilo is renowned for its verdant rainforests, spectacular waterfalls, and tranquil beaches.
One of the main attractions in Hilo is the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. This UNESCO World Heritage Site houses two active volcanoes: Kilauea and Mauna Loa. The park's diverse landscapes can be explored via its extensive network of hiking trails or by taking a scenic drive along Crater Rim Drive or Chain of Craters Road.
The downtown area of Hilo offers a peek into its history with well-preserved historic buildings. The Pacific Tsunami Museum provides an intriguing look into tsunami history and preparedness. The Lyman Museum also offers insights into the region's history. Meanwhile, local art is showcased at the East Hawaii Cultural Center which also hosts various cultural events throughout the year.
Nature enthusiasts will appreciate Hilo's plentiful green spaces. Liliuokalani Park and Gardens is a stunning Japanese-style garden that offers peaceful views of Hilo Bay. Rainbow Falls and Akaka Falls are must-visit locations due to their awe-inspiring beauty.
For astronomy enthusiasts, Mauna Kea Observatories should not be missed. Positioned atop Mauna Kea mountain, these observatories are often praised as one of the world's premier astronomy sites due to their high altitude, stable air conditions, and minimal light pollution.
Hilo also has a vibrant food scene reflecting its multicultural heritage. Visitors can try local Hawaiian cuisine at farmers markets or dine at restaurants serving everything from traditional Hawaiian dishes to Asian fusion cuisine.
In summary, Hilo provides an authentic Hawaiian experience away from more crowded tourist destinations like Honolulu or Maui. Its natural wonders, rich culture, historical charm and friendly locals make it an exploration-worthy destination for any traveler.
