We loved this stay. Every detail of the room was perfect. Location was great for access to Hilo, Akaka Falls, Mauna Kea and Volcanoes National Park. The host was welcoming and had a great list of restaurants and things to do. Not sure if we will be lucky enough to return to Hilo in the future, but we would absolutely stay here again if we do.

Thank you Tanner and Hannah for allowing us to stay at your beautiful home, and for being such amazing hosts. Your clean and comfortable room truly was an oasis after a fun day of exploring the area. Getting to see nearby Kilauea erupt truly was a once in a lifetime event for us. Thank you for helping us be prepared for the event!

The Best Stay in Hilo Town!

A great getaway, secluded and peaceful. Wonderful hosts and can’t wait to visit Hilo again soon. We will recommended to all of our friends and family. Way better to stay at this property than any of the hotels in the Hilo area.

Expedia was the problem for the check-in process. If your travels take you to Hilo, this is the place to stay. It’s on quite possibly the most beautiful neighborhood in Hilo. Beautiful setting and great hosts. There is quite a bit of coqui frogs and it sounds like a frogpocalyose. Lol but after the first night, we slept through it. Truly awesome lodging option! Brand new rooms. So nice. 10+ AAA+
