Top Hakalau Hotel Reviews

Hilo Hawaiian Hotel, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

10/10 Excellent

"The room had a cockroach"

Hilo Reeds Bay Hotel

8/10 Good

"This is an older hotel, no a/c or elevator, still uses keys, looks beat down from the hallway. Nice clean pool and direct access to some lava rock tide pools. TBH the view of the bay and the sound of the waves made it worth it- but I’d sleep in my car for that sound! Microwave and fridge came in handy. A low cost option for Hilo."

SCP Hilo Hotel

8/10 Good

"The SCP Hilo is a cute motel with a nice lobby and pool area. The staff are amazing-helpful and kind. The fitness area just has two Peloton bikes which is not great for those of us who don’t like biking, but I knew this before making a reservation. The bikes and paddle boards available for guests is a nice touch. The room itself is quite basic and a little small for more than two people, but it was comfortable."

Luxury Oceanfront B-n-B Suite Gated Cliffside Estate - Banyan - Beach 10m walk

8/10 Good

"The property itself is beautiful, and it’s obvious a tremendous amount of work has gone into creating and maintaining it. The grounds are immaculate, peaceful, and unique, the suite was spotless and comfortable, and the breakfasts each morning were excellent. It’s a truly special setting.The only reason we’re giving four stars instead of five is because the hosting experience didn’t feel as warm or welcoming as we had hoped. While the owners clearly take pride in what they’ve built, many of our interactions felt more transactional than hospitable. We left with the impression that opportunities to experience more of the property or interact with the animals and farm were generally reserved for paid experiences, rather than simply being part of staying there.Communication was also slower than expected at times, and a few interactions came across as dismissive or condescending, which kept us from feeling completely at ease as guests.Overall, the property itself is exceptional and we genuinely enjoyed our stay. If you’re looking for a beautiful, quiet place to relax, it’s an excellent choice. Just know that the accommodations far exceeded the hospitality we experienced from the hosts."
