The property has a spaceous kitchen/great room area and a very comfy couch. The kitchen has everything we needed and we were able to have several meals at the property. The shower is large and comfortable. The two bedrooms have a queen bed with plenty of room for suitcases, etc. The overall decor is lovely and interesting. We enjoyed working the puzzles and apreciated a chance to play Crimes Against Humanity.

So close to it all…necessities, restaurants, shopping, waterfalls, all the things; felt like everything was a 10 minute trip at most. We felt right at home. Communication from host was concise, consistent, and ahead of schedule. We were given pertinent details and pictures of the location so we could find it easily after a long flight (we were exhausted) as well as recommendations on where to go. Love this place! Also…it’s adorable.

We had a great stay at Whaler’s Inn! It is so cute and comfortable with everything you need for a great stay! Loved the welcome goodies! (Thank you!). Only thing I’d point out is the listing says it has a double sofa sleeper…this is incorrect. It has 2 queen beds and a SOFA (they did provide sheets and a pillow for said sofa). We are a family of 5, so that was a disappointment that one of the kids ended their vacation on a sofa, but knowing this ahead of time, I would book this home again! It was perfect!

Very nice house in Hilo neighborhood. My wife said it was "adorable". Two blocks from the local grocery store and within walking distance of other shops and stores. The kitchen was well equipped with utensils and dinnerware. If you plan on using the gas grill you'll need the small, detachable gas cannister like Coleman makes. The coqui frogs are loud at night, so if you haven't been to the Big Island before, be prepared. They actually have a jar of ear plugs for guests.

So we originally booked a room at a resort in Hilo, but decided to change and book this instead because we decided having two bedrooms was a better option. And we were glad that we did! This was much better than a small hotel room and had everything we needed. The best part, lots of places are within walking distance. For food, I recommend the Coco Cantina (2 min walk), it had an amazing $12 lunch special (M-F). The farmer's market is a must. And for groceries, the Sack N Save (owned by Foodland), is a great option. Would absolutely stay here again.

This was the best place ever! Walking distance to downtown restaurants, shops, and the ocean. The beds were super comfortable and the apartment was clean and updated with all sorts of cooking equipment. The host was communicative. Instructions were simple. Would definitely stay there again!

Grew up in Hilo so did a few days during my vacation on the Big Island. Definitely wanted to have a kitchen and be closer to downtown. Did not disappoint! Was able to walk to Moon and Turtle and the Hidden Nēnē, no problem!
