"We had the ocean view room on the second floor. It was newly renovated, with a beautiful private bathroom and beautiful wood work throughout. We were a bit spoiled when we were there, since there were no other guests on our floor during our stay. The kitchen and living room were spacious and well equipped, and Josh was always there to help us if we needed it. We would definitely stay here in the future"

"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!"

Top East Hawaii Cultural Center Hotel Reviews

one bedroom Loft Apartment in the heart of Downtown Hilo

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the studio experience. Perfect location for Hilo experience, farmers market shops and eateries short walk. Getting in and out of the place with little to no crowd. Would recommend. The shirt and Dress we also purchased are and added bonus. Felt like an extension of home."

Grand Naniloa Hotel Hilo - a Doubletree by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"We were situated in the older tower, but had a great view of bay. It was more difficult to find and navigate to hotel restaurant due to lack of any signage, and that our more obvious route was outside. Hilo is, after all, the rainiest city on the planet. Took us a wet try, and getting info to "maze" back to the older tower from restaurant staff. We suggest better signage, or info in room. The restaurant staff was okay...clearly overworked and understaffed. Front desk was adequate, but did exude the "Aloha Spirit". The older tower, although clean and sufficient, could use fresh paint, and new carpet in halls. The location and view, and lack of very many alternatives left this hotel as a good, and sufficient choice. Rooms were roomy, and beds/pillows/linen comfy."

Whaler`s Inn -Nautical Magical

10/10 Excellent

"We, a family of 5, felt very comfortable at this location in Hilo. It was walking distance to a local pizza place, grocery store, farmers market, and even the beach. The house was very clean and the host has for sure thought about all the little things that a traveler would need for an extended stay. They had boogie boards, beach towels, a day trip cooler, not to mention the simple home amenities such as coffee, sandwich bags, fresh local cookies on check in, and even (my wife laughs at me about this one) Q-tips. We enjoyed our stay in Hilo and the home like comforts of this rental. They really thought about the small details which helped make our trip the best. "

NEW - THE OUTRIGGER 3BR 2Bath - Hilo cold AC

10/10 Excellent

"The Outrigger was perfect for our stay. It was just 2 blocks from Bayfront soccer fields so it made it very easy for us to get to and form the field for the Volcano Soccer Tournament. The home was very clean and offered a lot of amenities (Beach toys, chairs, umbrellas, air conditioning, large washer and dryer).The host was very easy to communicate with and was very responsive. Would highly recommend this place."
