"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 Akaka Falls Hotel Reviews

Grand Naniloa Hotel Hilo - a Doubletree by Hilton

2/10 Terrible

"Horrible environment."

Hilo Reeds Bay Hotel

8/10 Good

"Good value budget hotel right on the bay in Hilo. The property is quite old, showing wear but room was clean, comfortable with fresh towels, shampoo etc, all the basics you need. It's classic old school ceiling fan and air vents rather than AC. There is occassion airport noise. Hilos airport is close to town so you can hear it as many locations, but airport isnt that busy. The hotel is not flashy at all but good value for those on budget given location. My rooms balcony directly overlooked shoreline."

Hilo Hawaiian Hotel, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

6/10 Okay

"it’s a nice location, but there’s a lot of construction going on not only in the surrounding landscape but also inside the hotel. There’s a resort fee being charged every day and it’s really just a simple pool. Nothing fancy I wouldn’t say it’s really a resort. A resort really does have quite a few other amenities. There’s only one restaurant and room service only comes every other day. also, for those people who are in a balcony room in the front of the hotel, you’re going to hear a loud buzzing noise every time he goes, sit on the patio from some transformer downstairs."

Hawaii Magic Skies B&B Farmstay

6/10 Okay

"Beautiful hotel.We noticed a great deal of attention to detail.The animals were wonderful.Setting was peaceful.There was one issue.I asked the day before arrival if I could check in at 2 since we had an excursion starting at 4.Josh was at a graduation but we called him and he was able to give us the code.We dropped off our things and left.We returned at 11 pm and noticed the room had only 1 bed.We registered as a group of 3.There were only 2 towels.I didn't want to bother anyone so late so my son slept on the floor and we roughed it with the towels.Next morning we left early.I texted Josh and asked why the room was only set up for 2.I mentioned the bed and the towels.His reply was that there was a rollaway in the LR.I texted back that I was disappointed that the room was not ready for us.No reply.That evening we were sitting in the LR and Josh came in, introduced himself and wanted to know why I was disappointed.I repeated the missing items.He got very defensive and said it wasn't his fault and I shouldn't have booked that room.I told him the website said it slept 3.He kept repeating it wasn't his fault.He didn't know we were 3 people.He blamed the owners for not telling him.He blamed me for coming when he wasn't there. He was upset that I came in late that first night.He was concerned that I would give him a bad review.He walked away in a huff.Later I texted that an apology for the mixup would fix the situation.No reply.So the missing stars are because you couldn't say sorry"

The Inn at Kulaniapia Falls

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed in one of the small cabins and it was fine for what I wanted. It had a comfortable bed, it had USB charging station, a mirror, a bar to hang your cloathes on and some side tables and benches. The water in the shower was hot. It really has a great atmosphere there, the folks that work there a nice and helpful. This is on the east side of the Big Island of Hawaii and that's the reason I chose it. Please read about this place before you book it, go stay there and gripe about it. The property is hydro and solar powered. I could listen to the river all night. There are 2 areas to stay there, one is the B&B part of the property and then there is the part of the property with cabins with a big barn that has the community kitchen upstairs, the outdoor showers and bathrooms though you can eat at the main house restaurant. Be prepared to look in the mirror with the sunshine and seeing all the wrinkles on your face! I had a great stay there, very enjoyable. I did not utilize any of the equipment as I am not a fan of cellular phones and QR Codes. I did not eat there in the restaurant however, there is plenty of fresh food there at the main house from the farm!!! I enjoyed this stay as I had split my stay on the big island 4 days here on the east side of the island and four days on the west side in a hotel. Buddha statues are at the gate."
