Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Hilo

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay at the Whale House! The set up is a little different because the upstairs and downstairs are separate but it was fine since we have older kids. The bedrooms and living room/kitchen area were all spacious. The outdoor areas were the best- we loved being able to walk across the street and sit by the ocean. We liked eating breakfast on the deck and the outdoor shower was a unique feature. It was a little more than we usually spend on a stay but overall was worth it for the experience.

What a slice of paradise!! The most beautiful property and wonderful cottage. Surrounded by citrus, banana, orchids, ferns, palms and every tropical plant imaginable, the puna rainforest retreat was even more wonderful than we expected. The steam heated tub where the cherry on top. We will definitely be back!

Diana’s Home in Hilo was a perfect place for us to explore Hilo and the surrounding areas. Our unit was spacious and comfortable. The beautiful landscaping created a private lanai. Diana was a gracious host, and we definitely stay with here again if our travels bring us back to Hawaii.

The house was in a good location for our plan. We were close to town for restaurants & grocery stores. Me were up for a quiet vacation and certainly were able to avoid the crowds. It is situated near Hilo & Kīlauea volcano, which were our primary focus. We enjoyed ourselves immensely.

We had a wonderful but short stay at John’s place. His property was beautiful, he was responsive and very helpful. We followed his recommendations and we had a great time. Would definitely book with John again!

This was a great base for visiting Volcanoes NP, just an easy short drive to the park entrance which was exactly what we were looking for. The living space was bright and spacious and made our group of 6 feel right at home with ample space to spread out. We were surprised at the large swings in temperature even within the house so be prepared to dress warmly in the late evening and early mornings but the house also had plenty of extra blankets and heaters to help.

Chows place felt like “home”. So relaxing, watching whales and enjoying the peaceful sound of the birds. Loved the location, away from downtown and exactly as described. We would most definitely be honored to stay here again.

Their home feels very cozy. We looked forward to coming back to it every day. Hosts went above and beyond to make sure our stay was 10/10. It’s well put together, has everything you need, and in a totally walkable to everything location.

Sam was very welcoming and an amazing host. Amazing place to stay. Highly recommended.

Scott was a great host and we couldn’t be more grateful! He thought of everything and was proactive in asking us the next day if there was anything we needed or if anything was amiss, which was greatly appreciated. The unit is comfortable, spacious, and very clean. The views of the ocean and the morning breeze from the lenai are definitely a highlight! We loved our stay and most definitely would recommend!

The unit was exactly as described and photographed. It was clean, tidy, and the heated blanket and space heater were very appreciated. The unit was easy to find, with a smooth check-in process; having a designated parking spot was also great. It was the perfect base camp for us to go to the Volcano National Park.

Wow! What an impeccable retreat! We arrived last minute and they were still accommodating. They gave us recommendations after we asked many questions and the place is just so perfect, perfectly clean, and easily accessible to Hilo and surrounding areas! We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent stay. The bed was super comfortable and bathroom was clean and roomy. The back porch was awesome... great views and very peaceful. The community outdoor kitchen was well kept and a comfortable place to hang out. The star gazing tower was fun, as well. Excellent off-grid place, and just as described, but far surpassed our expectations of comfort, especially for $ value.

i will remember my Hilo experience forever because of your house! It’s like living in heaven! Love the birds singing! (I never heard bird sounds like this, it has echoes! Want to know the name of the bird;). The modeling of the living area is impressive! Finally want to give extra star to the hot tub! It’s amazing to enjoy it especially when it’s raining! I’ll def come back!!

I stayed at their Pua Suite, which is located on the 2nd level, and the views looking out on their gorgeous landscape was amazing. On a clear day you can see Mauna Kea and every morning I was greeted by a beautiful rainbow outside the living room window. The unit was peaceful, relaxing and again, the views were stunning. The hosts were very friendly, responsive and had very clear instructions on how to get to their place. An added bonus: their front gate makes you feel like your entering your own estate.

My partner and I had a great stay! The apartment was perfectly equipped. It had a ton of items for the beach and Hawai’i activities. The space felt large and was extremely clean. The host was very friendly as well.

Great place, literally paces from a BEAUTIFUL lagoon and beach filled with turtles and fish. Nice quiet road dotted with 4 or 5 beaches/parks, and about a 3 mile drive to the shops/grocery stores to keep the kitchen stocked. Also had a French press so we could enjoy our fresh Kona coffee every day.

I was there with my boyfriend for the week. The location was great! Within walking distance g distance to great restaurants and the best farmers market I’ve ever been to. The views are absolutely stunning. Watching the sunrise in the morning was so beautiful. We felt right at home. I would definitely stay there again! Thank you so much Carla and Joe! It was a little slice of heaven there.

The Hilotown Condo was exactly what we expected plus a bit more... great location on the park with a very nice view of the park and even a bit of the ocean, was clean and well kept, plus had all the amenities. We especially enjoyed the lanai, dreamy bed and A/C! The condo is very close to Coconut Island and the Japanese/Liki'uokalani Gardens which we loved. Shae was very prompt with check-in/out questions. Thank you so much for hosting us! We will return hopefully sometime very soon.

Our stay at Carrie’s place was exactly what we wanted. A beautiful patio that overlooks the bay with amazing sunrise views, visiting birds, and comfy deck furniture and hammock. The space was updated with wood floor, large windows and a spacious bathroom. Hugh and Carrie were helpful, even providing duct tape for hiking boots that gave out at Volcanoes National Park!

What a golden gem in the middle of a tropical paradise. Ryan and Gina’s place was pure perfection as a home away from home…a cozy, peaceful sanctuary with beautiful and charming furnishings, offering an abundance of amenities. And Ryan and Gina were 5-star hosts, always immediately available to help whenever necessary, answer any questions, or offer recommendations for things to do or suggestions for restaurant dining. We have stayed in many Airbnb’s over the years, but this was truly one of the best. I’m ready to book another Big Island trip just to be able to stay at Ryan and Gina’s tropical gem!

Lovely room with luxurious bedding. The kitchenette with full-sized refrigerator was wonderful.

Great location to stay around Hilo. Many walkable restaurants and is a short walk from a beautiful pond. Lots of beaches short drive away. Amenities listed there was a safe on site but if there was I couldn’t find it (we were hoping there was one to leave our passports/money safe). Place could use a few touch ups and updates but overall nice stay. Have to download an app to pay to wash clothes (would have been nice to use cash as we now have money extra on an app we will never use again as you can’t choose how much to add it’s set increments)

I have stayed in a lot of Airbnb accommodations. This condo is the best. It it's perfect for one or two people it they aren't sharing beds. I love sitting on the balcony and watching the waves. I have been here multiple times and I am very comfortable here. Restaurants, market, and beaches are close and easy to access. I love staying here. Thank you!
