Top Fern Forest Hotel Reviews

Hilo Vacation Rental

10/10 Excellent

"nice and newer property, well maintained."

Hilo Hawaiian Hotel, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

8/10 Good

"The property is a bit dated and could use some TLC. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff was great and breakfast was very good. Good location. Decent value and would stay here again."

Hilo Reeds Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Genuinely had a perfect experience with my week staying here! I'm from an area where AC is all but ubiquitous and I run warm, so I was a bit worried about the room being too hot. It wasn't an issue in the slightest! My room was laid out perfectly with a small balcony and multiple windows to capture the winds blowing through. I was perfectly comfortable and my room was equipped with a ceiling and floor fans for the rare times I wanted them. If anyone reading this is like me and reading reviews and worrying about the rooms being too warm, I can genuinely promise my room was never anything other than comfortable. Aside from the pleasant temperature, everything else was so smooth. I didn't stay at a peak tourist time, but there was always plenty of parking available. Staff were always pleasant and helpful, and housekeeping always made sure my room's trash was taken out daily. My room was very clean and cozy. Location is fantastic, quiet but a short drive from everything in the Hilo area. My balcony view of Reed's Bay was wonderful; I saw sea turtles almost every day right from my room! I also really appreciated the on-site laundromat. Check-in and check-out were smooth and simple. The hotel is older (and there is no elevator), but it's clean and has a lot of positives too. I would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat, zero complaints and a super pleasant experience from start to finish! Thank you for such a nice stay!"

Lokahi Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient 1 night stay to start off the volcano trek! Very communicative!"

Howzit Hostels Hawaii

10/10 Excellent

"My stay at Howzit Hostels was incredible, special shout-out to Jane, Lanna Victoria and Veronica for being so welcoming. Riley for her amazing pancakes in the mornings, and oscar and Rochelle for the great conversations!!! Definitely come back again!"

Grand Naniloa Hotel Hilo - a Doubletree by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"As soon as you pulled up the valet was very friendly and helpful with directions. The view to the ocean took my breath away as soon as you walked in to the main entrance. I enjoyed my stay and it was very pleasant having staff text me about current events and things going on around the area. For example the volcano being active so that we didn’t get to miss anything special about Hawaii. I didn’t even have to go anywhere and got to see sea turtles right outside the restaurant after breakfast the day before we were going to leave."

Hoomaikai Blessing's

10/10 Excellent

"I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hoomakai Blessings, a lovely little bed and breakfast on the Hilo side of the big island. Kelly is a kind and gracious host who went out of her way to work with my unforeseen itinerary changes and I really appreciated her help and positive attitude. My bed was soft and comfortable and the outdoor hot tub was just what my sore body needed after a long trek around the island. Breakfast consisted of a delicious southwestern style breakfast burrito and homemade muffins with a nice assortment of teas and a constantly available pot of hot coffee. In case you forget to bring them, Kelly even supplies earplugs for the nighttime coqui frogs and the morning roosters. Mahalo nui loa Kelly!"

Volcano Forest Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Road access to property needs upgrading. Enjoyed the quiet stay. Would highly recommend this property!"

Arnott's Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The front desk staff were Extremely helpful, knowledgeable and friendly! They immediately replaced the refrigerator when we told them the freezer wasn’t working! We were disappointed at first because the room had no TV, but it forced us to talk with others and catch up on what’s happening in our lives! We’ll definitely recommend Arnott’s Lodge in Hilo!!"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Fern Forest?

The best area to stay in Fern Forest is within the community itself, particularly closer to the main access roads, to ensure convenience and accessibility.Fern Forest is a residential community known for its lush, tropical rainforest environment. It's characterised by winding, unpaved roads and properties located amongst dense vegetation, offering a secluded and private experience. The community is spread out, so proximity to paved roads like Volcano Road (Highway 11) is beneficial for easier travel.Couples looking for a private and romantic retreat will find Fern Forest appealing. The secluded cabins and holiday rentals often feature amenities like private hot tubs and lanais, great for enjoying the sounds of nature and stargazing. It's an ideal base for exploring Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, which is a short drive away, offering opportunities for hiking and experiencing the island's unique geology.For those seeking a quiet escape and a connection with nature, Fern Forest provides a great experience away from more bustling tourist areas.

When is the best time to go to Fern Forest?

The best time to go to Fern Forest is during the drier months, typically from April to October.During this period, you'll experience less rainfall, which makes exploring the natural beauty of the area much more pleasant. The trails are less muddy, and outdoor activities like hiking through the rainforest or visiting nearby Volcanoes National Park are more enjoyable. The temperatures are consistently warm and agreeable, usually around 24-29°C (75-85°F), providing ideal conditions for outdoor adventures.For those looking to avoid the busiest tourist crowds, visiting in May or September can be particularly rewarding. These shoulder months offer the benefits of good weather with fewer visitors, meaning you can often enjoy attractions and natural sites with a greater sense of peace and space. It's an excellent time for couples or solo travellers who appreciate a more tranquil experience.While the "wet season" from November to March brings more rain, it also means lush, vibrant greenery and often dramatic, misty landscapes.
