The Falls at Reeds Island
Hilo, Hawaii

Located on the pinnacle of Reed’s Island, Hilo’s upsacle encalve - stunning backdrop of rugged lava cliffs, quilt work of lush tropical foliage, one of Hawaii’s most beautiful waterfalls right in the yard. Bordered by Wailuku River and rainforest, seems deep in the rainforest, although it is really in downtown Hilo. Guest comments from Honolulu - “Thank you, thank you, thank you! We have loved the experience of this magical place. The soothing cascades of the waterfalls, the falling rain, the calls of birds, the black rocks and so many colors of green just overload the senses and provide an un-imagined tranquility. Steve told us of this paradise - but even he could not prepare us for this setting. From dawn to dark we have been captive and can only speak in low voices as if not to break the spell. Thank you for sharing this all with us. We leave with memories and feelings that will last forever. Much aloha, ....”. Historically home for the Hawaiians was not on the beach, they lived in the valleys where the weather was appealing, inspirational, serene. Legend has it that Reed’s Island, (original name “Koloiki”) was the play ground of the Alii. If you are considering a Hawaii beach vacation rental imagine staying in what seems to be deep in a rainforest, but just a mile up river of Hilo Bay, where a Hawaiian King spent his time.
