Laupahoehoe Hotels

"The staff was amazing! Valorie was helpful at every turn. The meals were delicious, although the timing seemed odd, dinner being served only Friday, Saturday, and Tuesday nights. The breakfasts were plentiful and filling, the fate being a variety of quiche, fruits, bread for toast, breakfast meat, granola. The ocean views were simply stunning. And the staff mixed fantastic cocktails. Only bad point was the water pressure in the shower being a little low, otherwise everything was delightful!"

"The room was clean. The kitchen was well-equipped. The bed was comfortable. "

"Great little getaway in the tropical forest. Glamping for sure! But super cute for a short stay. "

"Cute hotel close to downtown Hilo. We had a nice stay! "

"staff is friendly. bar service is a plus"

"Yes "

"This was a perfect place to stay. The host couple are incredibly kind and caring. You can tell they truly put their heart into taking care of the whole property. The room was very clean and spacious. Everything was well prepared — TV, microwave, coffee, towels, extra blankets — all thoughtfully provided. The view from the balcony was beautiful. Occasionally, their rescued little cats would stop by to say hello, which made the stay even more special. This is definitely a place I would come back to again. "

"Super fun hostel in the heart of Hilo. They offer a daily activity so don't book any excursions until you see what they have to offer. The staff was great! Shoutout to Colette, Rose, and the tour guide who took us up to Mauna Kea for the sunset (sorry "J" I am AWFUL with names but thank you for a great tour!). The free chocolate chip pancakes and coffee in the morning are a great way to start the day. Howzit was an incredibly reasonable rate for a comfortable place to stay and a clean, comfortable bed to sleep in. Can't wait to come back and visit again soon."

"We stayed five days here on our first trip to Big Island and fell in love with Hilo, a huge part of that was this gorgeous property full of lovely animals and livestock, fruit trees, and the kindest most responsive hosts. We even made friends with a lovely couple, also guests at this property who return here year after year (we can see why). It is conveniently located to reach Hilo downtown as well as to see waterfalls, lava caves, beaches, and the volcano. It is private, safe, quiet and really well-maintained. It is also extremely spacious, clean beautifully decorated. It had the most room of all the places we stayed on this trip to Oahu and Big Island. Bravo to Garvin and Laura Goode. You guys are amazing! "
