    The host communicated very clear instructions, supplied everything we could possibly need for our stay, and had a couple special welcome snacks.

    What a charming guest house! Super easy check-in and many delicious goodies including fresh fruit, cereal, snacks, etc., are waiting for you when you arrive! Every day we discovered another little treasure to admire and we felt extremely comfortable, like we were staying with family. Communication with Kawehi was flawless and we couldn't have asked for a better location. We wanted for nothing and highly recommend!!!

    Hale Kawehi is a delightful oasis, beautifully decorated, and with all the comforts and amenities of home. Thank you so much, Kawehi! We hated to leave.

    A True Enchanting Paradise in Hilo!Our first visit to the Big Island was made even more memorable by our stay at Hale Kawehi. Nestled in a local neighborhood, this guesthouse gave us the authentic Hawaiian experience we were hoping for. The home was spotless, beautifully maintained, and stocked with thoughtful touches—including snacks, food, and a fresh, sliced papaya waiting for us upon arrival.The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the natural cross-breeze from the large screen doors made the space feel airy and peaceful, especially in areas without AC. The garden was lush and vibrant, and we were surrounded by the soothing sounds of birds and nature throughout our stay.Communication with the host was seamless—she was warm, responsive, and truly welcoming. We couldn’t have asked for a better home base in Hilo. We’re already looking forward to staying here again on our next trip!

    Beautiful house from the mid-1930’s filled with wonderful artifacts and Hawaiiana. Nice kitchen area for in home cooking - pots pans rice cooker etc- Comfynooks for relaxing- great wrap around deck with lounge chairs and a dining table! The garden is lush and creative. There are many cocqui frogs at night so if that bothers you, there is even ears plugs! Our only negative was that due to a plumbing issue my husband could not soak in the tub (for his degenerative disk) altho the shower worked fine.

    Would definitely stay again! The house is so unique and we loved the decor. Wish we had more time to just stay and enjoy the space. Close to ocean, shopping, food. Thanks again for sharing your home! We had a great stay.
