Spacious room with lovely ambience, super comfy bed and loved the little touches to everything in the room that give it such a homely relaxing vibe. Room has another door that opens out onto large green back yard and let's in lovely sea breeze. Bianca and Jon Paul are super chill hosts they have great kitchen facilities and are within 10min walking distance from the nearest grocery store. Highly recommend staying here. 👌

Amazing place run by lovely people. Owners have poured their heart and soul into this property. So much attention to detail. So spacious; loved all the timber and the handcrafting and decorating, the koi fishpond under the entry floor; each room has a different theme. Super comfy bed, and huge bathroom. Massive kitchen and loungeroom on each floor, with everything you need in a kitchen. They even have some snorkel gear you can borrow, which we did. Stunning views from the lanai and lounge area, and it's an easy drive from the town. I highly recommend this place and I would come back again. It really is 10/10.

Didn't expect too much from a B&B in the middle of the town other than a great location to explore the place. But the moment you step in the room, you are in a beautifully put together place where everything is available: kitchenett with Coffee station and fridge, bath with bath tube, comfy bed and TV. I liked the color theme thoughout the room of white, grey and wood-colored.

The room was spacious, the private bathroom was beautiful. Large shower, double vanity sinks. The room and house were very clean. There was a small comfortable setting room and a very nice Lanai. There were two spacious closets. A large flat-screen TV with good reception. The owner was very gracious. The guest parking was at the front door, very convenient. The location is close to town, a plus.

The location and view was Exceptional! The host was very communicable with the whole checkin/arrival process. The house and room was very clean and quite. Being high up on the hill, we had a very amazing view of the sunrise over the ocean.

The property was very clean and spacious. If you have a rental car, the location was perfect to visit all the spots on the Hilo side of the island. Finally the value for money ratio was very good!

The location and views were excellent. It's a great spot to sit outside and enjoy a beer in the late afternoon. From Hilltop we were a few minutes walk (downhill) to central Hilo and in under an hour drive to the Mauna Kea observatory, Waipi'o, Kalapan and Volcanoes National Park. The house was very clean and there was option for a daily room service. The resident cat was a wonderful host and one who, I like to think, became a good friend.
