There was no breakfast. I loved the hospitality, and the value and price is great for families. I felt at home and will be going back. My friends and family was very happy and they all said, "I would stay here too and recommend this place to their friends and family.

Great location. It was close to the beautiful waterfalls. I also appreciated all recommendations that were left for us by the owner. As a family of 4, we were all very comfortable with plenty of room.

A good location for a hassle-free holiday in Hilo, Hilo Vacation Rental is a guest house surrounded by views of the city. The property features a garden, barbecue facilities and parking on-site among other facilities. The air-conditioned accommodation is 2.1 km from Rainbow Falls. The accommodation features a housekeeping service and a shared lounge for guests.

It was an excellent room. We had the king with private bathroom. Small problem getting the tv working but it was settled quickly. The staff was very helpful. Has a full kitchen and dining area that we did not know about that was a big plus. We would be happy to stay there again next time.

    Such a nice place, in a pleasant, quiet neighborhood. I loved the variety of fresh, exotic fruits available for breakfast—the host grows them right on the property. One night she even offered us homemade breadfruit chips.

    We were pleasantly surprised how comfortable and cozy the house was. Dianna was a great host and surprised us and made a delicious banana oatmeal breakfast for 2 of our 4 night stay. We enjoyed very much the conversations with Dianna and many of the other houseguests in our shared space. It was a great experience!

    We were late checking in and the front desk person waited for us to check in. Quaint, sleepy and quiet area near the hustle and bustle was fine for us- we slept well.

    I enjoyed my stay very much. The room was perfect for a solo traveler. Everything (room and shared bathroom) was clean. Diana is a great host, very kind and friendly. The location was good, I had a car to drive around the island.

    Spacious, quiet, and well-appointed room in back of large house. Beautiful huge backyard with jackfruit tree and the Wailuku River about 100 m at the end of the lot. Parking on the premises. Breakfast on the lanai (porch) with other guests was excellent: fresh fruit, homemade pastries, yoghurt, and coffee served by gracious hosts (not the owners). The "Boiling Pots" are about a 10 min walk from the B&B and the Rainbow Falls a short drive away. (We walked, but it was dangerous because of lack of sidewalks part of the way.)
