Great place!

This was our first trip to The Big Island and we stayed the first part of the week in Hilo. This cottage was absolutely amazing and was better than expected! The sounds at night were soothing, we had lizard visitors, the rain was just lovely! We couldn’t have asked for a better atmosphere!

Beautiful property and garden with tons of fruits

The grounds were amazing. We were allowed to pick our own fruits like papaya, sapote, banana, mountain apple, avocado, cacao, etc. The property was clean and cozy, and the outdoor shower was very nice. Only downside was a couple of loud coqui frogs at night, and it was a bit of a drive to Hilo.

A wonderful Hawaii experience

We loved the beautiful property. We were looking forward to the open air bungalow and it was fabulous! Hilo usually has evening rains and it was just lovely. There are sunshades and curtains throughout the house, so if you don't want quite so much open air, or more privacy, you can close them. It is the perfect size for 2 people. We will be back again.

One with nature

We loved our stay mainly because of the acre of fruit trees and numerous geckos that entertain. There wasn’t any ripe fruit when we visited, except for some grapefruit, but if your trip is at the right time of year, I am sure it is fun to eat fresh fruit from the orchard. It was nice to feel like you could be outside with privacy. The house has an outdoor kitchen and living areas which we enjoyed.

Our beautiful stay

My husband and I ended our visit to the Big Island by staying at this lovely property in Hilo for a few nights. We were aware that this side of the island gets a considerable amount of rain, especially this time of the year. We talked about possibly returning next year when the weather and numerous fruit trees are producing. .

Paradise vacation place

Great place to stay in! Hosts very attentive to your needs, fresh fruits you can pick yourself every day. BBQ works well, and has a side too for making breakfast. Only downside is the neighbouring dogs that bark. Other then that, great place!

Quaint and relaxing

Our stay was so relaxing and chill. We especially loved the nature of this stay. While the bungalow was a respite, we enjoyed climbing Mauna Kea and hiking to Shipman beach to see the turtles. Hilo has old world charm that beats Kona in our book.
