We love Hilo and the authentic old-Hawaii vibe it breathes but if you are looking for white sand beaches and Stepford wives neighborhoods, this is probably not the right place for you to stay. Plantation era houses were built in the 1960’s and while ours has been lovingly maintained and updated, there are still parts that are original. Some houses and areas in Hilo are in need of a little TLC including a few houses in our neighborhood. If this is something that will impact how you experience Hawaii, then it may be wise to consider a resort instead. But if you are looking for adventure, real Hawaiian experiences, fun new journeys to amazing destinations, we have that in abundance.

Each room has high powered fans. Combine this with the nice Hawaiian breeze and there is no need for air conditioners.

Hilo is authentic Hawaii. Beaches, shopping, great restaurants, waterfalls and hiking are all within a few minutes drive from Hale Lani. You can also access helicopter and boat tours in various spots around Hilo. If you have a car, you can reach Volcanoes National Park to the south or Mauna Kea to the northwest in about an hour. A massive mall and shopping center are just around the corner from us - you can walk there it is so close! We think our place is the perfect spot to Stay, Play and enjoy Aloha!

We love Hilo and the authentic old-Hawaii vibe it breathes. Plantation era houses were built in the 1930’s and while ours has been lovingly maintained and updated, a few houses in our neighborhood need a little TLC. If you are looking for adventure, real Hawaiian experiences, fun new journeys to amazing destinations at a budget price, then this is the perfect place for you! As our house is located in a quiet residential neighborhood, we ask our guests to show the aloha spirit to those around them by keeping noise levels to a minimum and by respecting Hawaiian culture. There may be other guests in the upstairs portion of our home, so we ask each of our guests to practice aloha and respect the privacy of each space. No smoking is allowed in or around our home.

If you are in need of additional space or planning to stay with a large group or family, please consider renting both portions of the house together - you can find that listed under Ohana Means Family. Welcome the Aloha Spirit and the vibe behind Stay, Play Aloha!
