The Nene Hideaway
near Richardson Beach

8 Guests
2 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms
4 Beds (1 King, 1 Queen, & Twin/Twin Bunk Bed) + Sofa Sleeper (Queen)

The Nene Hideaway is the perfect home for those who seek to be mere steps away from Hilo's fantastic beach parks while not being exposed to a busy beachfront roadway.  Richardson Beach Park is a casual 4-minute walk from this home, nestled around the corner on Nene Street, a peaceful, jungle-lined lane.   Our home gives you the highly desired yet hard-to-come-by combination of excellent beach access and privacy at the same time.  It truly is a gem in the jungle!

​

Richardson Beach Park is Hilo's premier oceanic park, with fantastic snorkeling, fun surf, and great swimming.  It has a rare black sand beach with a lifeguard tower.  Honu (Hawaiian green sea turtles) and humuhumunukunukukapua'a (the state fish) can often be seen swimming in Richardson's waters.  The shores of Richardson blend directly into a half-mile-long stretch of fantastic beach parks with beautiful bay views, nooks and crannies to explore, and sheltered picnic pavilions.

​

A lovely mile walk (or drive) up Nene Street from the home will take you to another one of Hilo's top beach parks, Carlsmith.  Carlsmith is a great swimming beach with a sandy bottom, and honu are frequently seen swimming in the waters.  Our home is only 5 miles from various grocery and box stores and Hilo's Bayfront shopping district, where you will find the famous Hilo Farmer's Market, antique and souvenir shops, and incredible restaurants.  Hilo International Airport is a simple 12-minute drive.  Our home is an excellent base for exploring Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, the waterfalls of the Hamakua Coast, and all the lush jungle parks on the windward side of the Big Island of Hawaii.

​

The Nene Hideaway is a spacious two-bedroom, two-bathroom home with a lovely lanai for outdoor living that seamlessly flows into the indoor spacious living area and a well-equipped kitchen.  On the property, you will see bamboo, hibiscus, banana plants, avocado trees, and other tropical plants.  There is covered off-street parking.  The home has stairs, which are unsuitable for those unable to do stairs.  See the photos below for further details on the home's accommodations.

This is a fully permitted Short Term Vacation Rental (STVR) with the County of Hawaii.
