What a nice stay and unique experience. We stayed in this B&B for two nights. The host served us breakfast with home made fresh fruits which is absolutely tasty. 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 loved our stay at Old Hawaiian B and B! The room was cozy and clean, the peoperty is beautiful, and the hosts are extremely welcoming. Breakfast is also a highlight - fruit from the backyard, assorted home made breads, and a hard boiled egg and yogurt. Fantastic start to the day! We would definitely stay here again if we wind up around Hilo in the future!

The owner personally prepares breakfast every morning and serves it at 8:00 a.m. The meal includes coffee, tea, juice, a fruit plate with eight varieties of freshly picked tropical fruits from the backyard, boiled eggs, yogurt, bread, and muffins. The room is very clean. The location is very convenient. It's close to the Akaka Falls State Park, Rainbow Falls, Liliʻuokalani Gardens, the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden, and the farmers market in downtown Hilo I give it a 4 out of 5 for the following reasons: 1. No air conditioning unit 2. No bathroom ventilation fan 3. The bed is a queen rather than a king

First time at a bed and breakfast

This was our first time ever at a bed snd breakfast. I wasn't sure what to expect. I'd say Intimate would be a good word, and friendly. Laurie the owner welcomed us personally, and there were two other couples there. The morning communal breakfast gave us a taste of the local fruits and breads, all hand preparec. The room was comfortable and while there's no A/C, there was no need due to the local nighttime climate. It wasn't near the downtown district, but turned out to be a plus. If you visit Hilo, I highly recommend Old Hawaiian Bed and Breakfast! Thanks for great 2-day stay.

My husband and I stayed there for four nights and we had the most wonderful time there. Every morning was a different type of fresh cut fruit, mostly grown in the property and home bake goods. It was delicious! The room was small but comfortable and was exactly what we were looking for. The property and location was great too. It was a 10 minutes walk to rainbow falls and 5 minutes drive to downtown Hilo.
