Paddler's Inn is a very comfortable and well appointed old-style Hilo home. A/C was great which made sleeping wonderful. The neighborhood was very quiet (except for the frogs...which we like) and safe. Conveniently close to downtown Hilo and many of our favorite restaurants.

We had a great experience at the Paddlers Inn. The house was clean and as described. The neightborhood was quiet (except for some nature noises that we actually enjoyed) despite what I had read in other reviews. All communication with property owner was prompt and helpful. Although AC is not a normal thing in houses in Hawaii it was great to have the window units in the bedrooms to keep cool while sleeping. The location was great. Close to groceries and the beach. Easy to get around. Would definitely stay here again.

Our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens) stayed here for 5 days in May. The home was clean, well supplied and served as a great location for all our adventures on the East coast of the big island. Check-in was easy and straight forward, parking wasn’t an issue, and the host treated us to a cute welcome basket. Lots of beach supplies, and groceries were nearby. Walking distance to the center of town in a safe neighborhood. Would recommend.

This clean and charming rental was the perfect place for our family of 4 to relax and enjoy our time in Hawaii. We liked walking to the shops, museums, restaurants, farmer's market, and grocery store. Other attractions (gorgeous beaches & parks, HI bioreserve & garden, Onomea Trail, exploring historic Honoka'a and staring in awe over the Waipio Valley, watching the sunset above the clouds on Muana Kea) were easy and scenic drives away. The home came with everything that we needed and more. We stayed in HI for 3 weeks, living at 4 different vacation rentals. They were all wonderful, but the amenities, thoughtfulness, and special touches that the hosts provided in this one were above and beyond compared to the others.

Paddlers Inn was a lovely home situated a short distance from downtown Hilo! You can walk to a grocery store and beautiful beaches are just a 5-10 minute drive away! Home has what you need to enjoy the sun and sand! Place was clean, comfortable beds, plenty of towels, boogie boards, beach chairs, snorkel gear, blender for cold drinks after a day in the sun!!! Definitely will be back!

Amazing stay. They thought of everything for us. Nice little touches from the snacks down to ice cold water in the refrigerator. The places is very clean and well maintained. Great proximity to things, but far enough away. Would recommend to stay and would stay again!

This house was a rare 3 bedroom rental in downtown Hilo. The house was adorable, clean, and inviting! It was a .5 mile walk to restaurants and the downtown market. We will stay again!

This was our first time to Hilo. We found the rental to have lots of character. It had useful spaces, full kitchen (but no ice maker), laundry, wifi, great communication and hospitality. There are some loud creatures in the area and a fair amount of traffic - people coming and going in the neighborhood, traffic noise, etc. Having just come from the Volcano area where the creatures were deafening at night, the symphony of chirping was no bother to us The one personal downside was that the unit had no A/C. It offered fans but it just did not cool down much at night and we did not sleep well being hot all night. For this reason, we would not rent here again because we prefer the comfort of A/C at night. If you are ok with the warm breezes, curtains fluttering in the sunshine, and the comfort of fans, this is a great spot for you!

Great place to stay in Hilo, walking distance to shops, restaurants and farmers market. The place is well stocked and had way more room than the two of us needed. The place was clean and the owners were responsive. We would stay again! The frogs can be loud at night if your very sound sensitive and some mild morning noises from people in the neighborhood going to work, etc. You would get that staying anywhere in Hilo. We didn’t mind it a bit!!
