Everything and especially staff. Huge thank you for all the wonderful ladies and gents in the front desk and hardworking housekeeping staff. Of course I forgot the name of the young beautiful smiling girl who helped me, I’m sorry. Thank you for recommending the peaceful wing and thank you for changing my room to 203, thank you for all assistance.

Beautiful tropical location with lush garden. Spacious, clean cottage. Beds were comfortable and our kids liked having the curtain as a separator for their "room". We had everything we needed, and the staff was friendly and inviting, so we could have asked if anything was missing. There were small waterbottles and cookies in the cottage as a welcome which was a nice touch! The layout of the cottages gave us a really private feel, even when folks were in the neighboring cottage. We LOVED the secret beach. Mostly locals in a number of differently sized tidepools. Reef shoes strongly recommended!

One of the most beautiful B&Bs I've had the pleasure of staying at. I will remember forever. We were in for a quick, one evening stay after getting engaged in Kona and my boyfriend (fiancé now!) and I could not have asked for a better place to celebrate 1 on 1. As PNW-ers, we love Hilo for its tropical rain. At Orchid Tree, you can look forward to: the most comfy bed (I gasped when I felt the pillows), tall ceilings with beautiful woodwork and a delightful breeze from the screen doors, and so many thoughtful, small touches. Every inch of the room was clean but it still felt homey, not sterile. Coffee, fresh fruit, and carbs in the morning, coupled with a sweet chat with Steve and fellow travelers. This B&B strikes the perfect balance of private and communal. At the end of our stay, my partner ran back in and Steve gave us a list of recs. We then proceeded in heading over to Steve's son's shaved ice shop (Aloha General Co - located at 28-1692 Old Mamalahoa Hwy, Honomu) to get one of the best desserts of our life and more caffeine. Highly recommend 'The Local' shaved ice. Could not have asked for a better stay. We hope to be back someday! For my foodies: For those who are celebrating (life or otherwise), Moon and Turtle was one of the best meals of my life and a trip to Hilo isn't complete without the fries and fry sauce at Hilo Tavern. ENJOY!

I like everything of this stay. The ocean view is amazing, and it’s even better to wake up and have breakfast with the sound of waves. Tomomi is super helpful and her breakfast is great. The room is very clean and well kept. excellent!!

The house was absolutely perfect for our family gathering. We came together to remember our sister who passed away. We had 7 adults and 4 kids . The pool is great and the separate wing for part of the family was nice. Spacious so plenty of space to get together comfortably and we could all eat at the dining table together. The kitchen has everything needed and so clean and organized. And big enough to cook a big meal for everyone . The bedrooms have very comfortable quality beds and very nice bedding. Everything is top tier . Highly recommend to big groups. Good communication when we had questions also .

We went on a ghost tour to learn about the history of Hilo - and so many wonderful myths and legends and ghosts stories in the center of town! We loved the outdoor things we could do - from lava tubes, to volcanoes, to great views of waterfalls. The people we met were very friendly. The food EVERYWHERE was excellent (and we looked/tasted everything local). We wanted to go to the observatories, but our car rental was not an off-road vehicle, so we couldn't go on the roads to the top. The parking to the touristy part of center of town was very convenient. Kona was only a 2hr drive away, but we liked Hilo better, since it was friendlier and less crowded.

I LOVE Hilo!!! It still holds "The Essence of Hawaii."

I LOVE Hilo!!! It still holds "The Essence of Hawaii." It is not overrun with tall modern buildings, and "Tacky Tourist Attractions." It maintains an Old Hawaii Charm. You're not overwhelmed with street performers and aggressive sales people trying to pull you into their cosmetics stores. Yet there are still some homeless people there which is not good. However, I feel very safe in Hilo. There are nearby beautiful gardens and great beaches! Hilo is surrounded by so much natural beauty. There are some great restaurants there as well. I really like all of them, and I make sure to have at least one dinner at Hilo Bay Cafe. I also always make sure to visit the Imiloa Astronomy Center by UH Hilo. It is an excellent place to learn about the history & culture of Hawaii. And their planetarium has amazing presentations!

Has the atmosphere of old Hawaii in the downtown, but it also has new and intriguing areas such as the University of Hawaii at Hilo and it's astronomy center. It also has access to Volcanoes National Park, which is an iconic park and sometimes volcanic eruptions to observe. It also has an extremely extensive farmers market with whole range of tropical fruits and vegetables.

The Hilo area is the wet side of the island but our 7 night stay resulted in late evening showers and only 1 semi-rainy day in mid-March. We were lucky. Hilo is old, funky, has a great Farmers' Market, and wonderful scenery. People are friendly and nice. Streets are clean and the flora lovely! As many folks say, it's Hawaii before tourists have overrun it and developers have built fancy hotels.

Don’t go to Hilo the first part of the month when all the retired and subsidized locals are cashing their government checks. Stores and restaurants are mobbed. Love the local waterfalls and Liliuokalani Gardens. There was a lot of traffic!

Hilo is green, walkable, laid-back, mostly attractive and has a lot of character, although some areas are in disrepair with closed shops. If you prefer grand hotels, sunnier weather, commercial tourism and private beaches, stay on the Kona side of the island. Hilo is island-style, and surrounded by waterfalls, botanical gardens and lush coasts with shorter drives to attractive spots. Great snorkeling at Carl Smith and Richardson Ocean Park.

The B&B is very well located. Very close to Hilo but a little secluded. Room was very comfortable and spacious. Common area was spacious as well. The whole place feels very calm and private. Hosts were were welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was good. I really loved their sustainability approach. Highly recommended.
