Royal Palm Cottage/5 mins from beach/Akaka Falls/Private Lanai

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfortable relaxing stay. Love clean cotton sheets! The complimentary fruit platter and banana bread was amazing. Definitely, we'll be coming back and staying there. Thank you so much"

Beautiful ocean views located minutes away from Waipio Valley

10/10 Excellent

"This little studio apartment was the perfect place for our getaway. The property it's beautiful, the apartment is clean, comfortable, and has a very authentic Hawaiian feel. Watching the sunrise from the outside kitchen in the mornings, listening to the birds while drinking your coffee... wow, just wow! Definitely an unbeatable experience. The hosts, Adelina and Buzz are gracious, helpful and friendly, but not intrusive in anyway. Can't wait to stay here again. "

Honomu Place - Resort Oasis

10/10 Excellent

"Welcome letter needs to be updated. There was no room with a TV and the "larger one" was the smallest TV I've seen in 20 years. Plus, it was not cable, just Roku. Couldn't watch local news. Missed the volcano eruption.Walked around the house twice looking for green door. Scrolled down some on my laptop and went in through garage door and there it was. Letter was not wrong, just out of order. When told not to push on gate, assumed it was electric and that meant not to force it. Again, not incorrect, just a little misleading because you do have to push it open, just not like a hinged gate.If I exhaust trips to all the other islands, I would stay here again.The pool was awesome and there was something oddly satisfying about swimming under the bridge.The kitchen had enough hardware to cook a meal in different pots every night for a month. Lots of cutlery and glasses and dishes."

Ocean View Mountain Home by Akaka Falls.

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed coming back to this home each night after exploring the island. The location private and great for walking to Akaka Falls and the little fruit stand. The house felt spacious and comfortable. It was clear the house was built with care as my husband commented on how well done the construction appeared. We had everything we needed in terms of kitchen items, soap supplies, laundry facilities, etc. We had a couple geckos that would come and go upstairs once in a while, but they were comical to watch. It was a great location to explore both North and South ends of the island for day trips. Hilo was an easy drive away for supplies and Honumu offered a couple close by shops including The Hive where we got delicious sandwiches. Overall I would recommend this property and stay here again."

Serene, Restored House from Sugar Days with Sweeping Ocean Views

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved the house and the location. We felt like it was a good central location to Hilo, Kona and Mauna Kea. The house was very clean, the spa amenities were great, the view was great. We did have some issues with the sauna we messaged about but having access to this, the hot tub and a cold plunge was great! And the welcome fruit basket was such a sweet touch."

Hamakua Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"This was amazing! Great staff, great location AND there's even a swimming hole (5 min walk, if that) with a waterfall! I've never stayed in a shared house before, but this one has spoiled me! It's close enough to be able to drive to all the good tourist spots. Oh, and hopefully you're there for the "big" farmers market on Saturdays. If I get back to the Big Island I'll be coming back here! Thank you for the great time!"
