Continental breakfast items are stocked daily and we invite all guests to swim in the pool or lounge on the oceanfront veranda.

All Guest Rooms are facing the ocean on the lower level of the property and there are over 30 steps down (pictured) to traverse to the rooms. Guests are responsible for carrying their luggage to their rooms. Bookings limited to 2 guests per room (including children). Quiet hours are 9pm to 8am for the comfort of all of our guests, Mahalo!

Amazing Hilo BNB

Absolutely amazing stay at the Bamboo room. We woke up to ocean waves, fresh papaya, boiled eggs, yogurt, and other tasty treats. We had a great time staying here and would definitely come back!

Great B&B

The room was nice, and they stocked your fridge with a nice breakfast for each morning. The pool is incredible - it over looked the ocean including a nice surfing beach and Hilo town. The room also had a nice private lanai area for each room overlooking the ocean.

Wonderful location!

The view from the big windows was spectacular. We enjoyed our breakfast on the patio every morning. The floral display around the house was stunning. We couldn't have asked for a better location. We did trips to the north and south ends of the island. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Perfect for us!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay! The lanai looking out over the ocean was exactly what I wanted. We enjoyed getting to watch the surfers down below. The daily breakfast was perfect and the coffee was delicious. We had the property to ourselves so it was very quiet and peaceful. My husband and I both agreed we will come back if we get the chance!

Comfortable stay withgreat view

We enjoyed our stay here very much. Just a few recommendations: instructions to the room could have been a bit clearer. Luckily, we got here before dark. Outdoor lighting along the path would help, too! The breakfast fruit and muffins were a very nice touch. Kekela was very nice, too!

Filling breakfast with in room coffee and tea as well. Took advantage of the many activities listed on the welcome pages that are on the table. Comfortable bed but the Coqui frogs chirping at night might keep you up! Jacuzzi was too hot at 105 though.

Hilo Tour

We are Hawaii island residents and we played tourist for a long weekend. The location was great and close to all the museums, the zoo and dinners. The sound of the ocean was very nice and the unit had a great view. We even saw a cruise ship come into port from our unit. We ate at HBC and Cafe Pesto. We also had a nice drink at The Hidden Nene (speakeasy in town). The bed was very comfortable and the continental breakfast consisting of muffins, fruit and boiled eggs were great! The only downside is parking. The space is very restricted so I would suggest a car or small SUV. We have a full sized van that was tight.

Beautiful Babymoon Stay

This is the first b&b that we've actually gotten the breakfast part of the b! The Bamboo room was well equipped and quiet at the end of the house (no one passing by our porch). The breakfasts were such a nice touch with super fresh fruit, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, and muffins. I love that it was provided because it allowed us to sit out and watch the sunrise with our coffee (also in room with fresh milk). It was so nice to really enjoy the lanai without having to leave. The pool was so nice in the heat and my husband loved watching the surfers down at the beach. Screens allowed us to open the windows and listen to the ocean and animals at night. Truly a wonderful stay close to Hilo, Volcano National Park, and other east island points of interest. Thank you for sharing your home!
