The Neighborhood:
Your stay is set in the heart of Hilo, the Big Island’s charming and laid-back east side. This isn’t the resort scene — it’s authentic Hawaiʻi. Wake to the sound of coqui frogs and tropical rain showers that give the island its lush gardens and waterfalls. Within minutes, you can stroll along Hilo Bay, browse the Hilo Farmers Market for local fruit and crafts, or enjoy island-roasted coffee at a café downtown.
The neighborhood blends peaceful residential streets with the natural beauty of Wailoa River State Recreation Area, nearby beaches like Carlsmith (right outside the door), Richardson Ocean Park, and Onekahakaha, and easy access to volcano adventures at Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park (about 45 minutes away).
By night, the air cools, the sky fills with stars, and you’ll feel what locals call the “old Hawaiʻi” rhythm — calm, friendly, and unhurried. Hilo is the perfect home base to explore waterfalls, black-sand beaches, lava tubes, and all the hidden gems of the Big Island’s east coast.

Getting Around:
A car is recommended to explore the island. Uber and Lift are possible to and from the Airport.

Other Things to Note:
In the Hawaiian Tradition, please remove shoes when entering.

From the moment you arrive, we full respect your privacy but are never more than a message away if you need anything.
