Quiet yet close to everything (with a car). A tropical paradise! The owners are very friendly and attentive. The breakfast was amazing with lots of fresh local fruit and a variety of fresh baked breads , boiled eggs and yogurt !! The WiFi was good with a strong signal. No AC but their combination of fans was very adequate! The grounds are amazing and the river view a short walk away! We look forward to to returning on our next trip!

I think this is the best kept secret of Hilo. We loved sitting on the porch looking at the gorgeous view of the large green yard with many fruit trees and huge palm trees in the distance. We walked through the backyard to a river with waterfalls. The hosts are available and helpful. The breakfasts full of exotic fruit were amazing. This stay alone was one of the highlights of our trip to HI. Guest books were full of grateful entries that went back for decades.

We loved staying here! The beds are great, the property is stunning, and I wish I could have these breakfasts every morning. The breakfast they put together from their own fruit trees and homemade baked goods felt like we were spoiled every morning. We got to spend some time with Stewart and loved chatting and he had some incredible recommendations for the area that made our stay all the better. Given the opportunity we will absolutely be staying here again. It's the perfect comfortable and quiet getaway spot.
This is just one of the breakfasts we had - different baked goods but fruit was always the constant!

Overall a great experience. Host 5 stars, property 5 stars, very quiet: 5 stars, breakfast 5 stars. Room size, no air condition, sink in bedroom: 3 stars. We would book it again, but the room felt small, however we loved the great fresh local fruit selection every morning.

We were delighted to find this BandB in a lovely part of Hilo. The house is well maintained with a large yard bordering the river. The room was very clean and bright. The hostess was friendly and hospitable, served us a delicious breakfast with a variety of fruits and fresh baked pastries, and packed us a breakfast to go when we needed to leave early.

We also chatted with other guest and felt pretty relax on the huge backyard full of fruit trees. This place is located in a convenient place near hilo downtown . Highly recommend !

We had a wonderful stay at the Old Hawaiian B&B and highly recommend this place. Breakfast each morning was a real highlight, with fresh fruits and delicious homemade pastries. The property is set in a quiet, pleasant neighborhood and surrounded by a lush tropical garden, with an impressive cliffside view that makes the setting feel truly special. It is also very conveniently located, just a short drive from downtown Hilo, as well as swimming and snorkeling beaches and the beautiful bayfront gardens. Our host, Stewart, was very friendly and attentive to all our needs. He generously shared great tips on places to visit, which made our stay even more enjoyable. We would definitely consider coming back.
