Oceanfront in Hilo Hale Kai Suites Bamboo Room - King Bed, Private Bathroom

Nice little getaway just outside of Hilo. Quiet and the perfect view. It felt like home, loved the breakfast plates offered and room was nice.

Gorgeous views, amazing sunrises, sound of the waves all the time. Excellent

The wife and I were very happy with the accommodations. The style is what I would consider mid-century Island? The bare essentials are there; super clean, fresh bakery and local fruit breakfast, Johnny-on-the-spot housekeeping, pool and hot tub, and the price is definitely right. The very best feature is absolutely the elevated ocean view from your Lanai overlooking the north end of Honolii Beach and it's world class surf and surfers. There might be a better BandB value in the Hilo area but I can't imagine where.

The breakfast provided each morning was a perfect start to the day and we loved all the different fruits. We will be back next time we are on the island and will share this gem with our friends.

Good communication. Easy check-in. Exceptional view. We loved fresh fruit daily!

Great beautiful place and view, very clean and comfortable room. Host was great, everyday got fresh fruit and muffins. We really enjoyed our stay, would highly recommend this place for a beautiful stay away from the city hussel and bussel, just 10mins to the city beautiful beaches very close by.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We arrived for a 3 night stay and things were like we remembered from 2021. The room met expectations but the more we evaluated the property there were some things that had declined. The pool was very dirty and the vacuum was in it the entire time. Therefore, we did not use the pool. The breakfast was still as nice as we remembered from 2021. On the third morning we left towels out as instructed but they were not replaced. Later that afternoon I texted the host about the towels with no reply that day. We had to use a beach towel to dry off after showers that was used earlier that day. The following morning we were preparing to leave when she replied that she was trying to contact housekeeping. At this point is was far too late so it was very disappointing that she didn’t even reply the afternoon we needed the towels. Everything in the booking process was great but the housekeeping miss and the host lack of response was very disappointing.

We LOVED this property. It was exactly as listed and was a good drive from akaka falls and downtown Hilo. The property was clean. We would stay here again.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed 2 nights.Pros:Nice view, can watch sunrise in the room.Close enough to Hilo town.Clean and safe.They provide fruit everyday plus some eggs and cupcakes in the fridge.Every room gets an assigned parking spot.Cons:There are a lot of stairs to get to the room, not convenient if you have a lot of luggage to carry in and out. It's a bit weird that we had to walk past all the other guests' patio area. And then we needed to go through the common area/room to get to our room. It's the only room that doesn't have a sliding door to the outside. They put up dividers in the outdoor area so every room has its own patio with a table and chairs where you can eat breakfast and watch sunrise. However, we didn't have direct access to our patio area and had to carry our food and go through the common room and then go to the other side of the divider once we are outside. Just not as convenient.The granola bar they provided was stale.If you are sensitive to sound while sleeping, this may not be for you. You can hear the sound of waves(I find it soothing) and birds chirping all night.Parking is a bit tight and it's on a slope.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at the Bamboo room. Nice private room with wonderful beach views. The rental is just few minutes from Hilo. We stayed 4 nights to explore the east side of the island. Great for stars gazing, we enjoyed the sunrise from our bed. We Enjoy our wonderful breakfast while watching the surfers at Honolii beach wich is about 0.8 miles from the hotel. Breakfast is simple but delicious 😋 we looked forward for what we would get next morning. Even though they provide coffee and a coffee maker We took a quick ride to hilo to get our coffee and trythe local coffee shops drve back to our room and enjoy our fresh fruit and muffins. The rental was tiny different from the pictures I wish they have kept the colorful walls instead of the plain white walls. Not a deal breaker but the color walls made so much cozier and tropical lookingThe room really needs a full size sure all your female guests will appreciate. Did not use the pool but we did enjoy the pool area and relaxed enjoying the views. If we or when we are back to the big island we definitely staying here again!

We enjoyed our stay here very much. Just a few recommendations: instructions to the room could have been a bit clearer. Luckily, we got here before dark. Outdoor lighting along the path would help, too! The breakfast fruit and muffins were a very nice touch. Kekela was very nice, too!

The only downside was the room was very warm despite opening the windows and the 2 fans.

The view from the big windows was spectacular. We enjoyed our breakfast on the patio every morning. The floral display around the house was stunning. We couldn't have asked for a better location. We did trips to the north and south ends of the island. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The room was very nice and clean. And we had a wounderful view on the sea, including sunrise. We stayed for four nights. But this was a bit too long, 2 nights would have been enough.The breakfast became every day less: no more yoghurts, no more oat meals.The pool was not working in time. At night we did not want to sit outside, because of the mosquitos (but this was just our problem ;-))

This is the first b&b that we've actually gotten the breakfast part of the b! The Bamboo room was well equipped and quiet at the end of the house (no one passing by our porch). The breakfasts were such a nice touch with super fresh fruit, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, and muffins. I love that it was provided because it allowed us to sit out and watch the sunrise with our coffee (also in room with fresh milk). It was so nice to really enjoy the lanai without having to leave. The pool was so nice in the heat and my husband loved watching the surfers down at the beach. Screens allowed us to open the windows and listen to the ocean and animals at night. Truly a wonderful stay close to Hilo, Volcano National Park, and other east island points of interest. Thank you for sharing your home!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My sister and I spent four nights here during our 2-week vacation in Hawaii. Of the four places that we stayed, this proved to be our favorite. Being an end room, the Bamboo provides exceptional privacy along with the beautiful sunrise view. The singing of the coqui frogs only added to the unique experience. We enjoyed having a leisurely breakfast on the lanai, each day a different flavor of muffin and blend of fresh fruit. The property and beautiful landscaping are well maintained and clean. We appreciated the daily cleaning of dishes, trash removal, and delivery of the next morning's breakfast. The location was perfect for our activities along the northern coast, yet an easy drive into Hilo and points beyond. While parking is a bit tricky, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

The room was nice, and they stocked your fridge with a nice breakfast for each morning. The pool is incredible - it over looked the ocean including a nice surfing beach and Hilo town. The room also had a nice private lanai area for each room overlooking the ocean.

We had such a great stay in the Bamboo room at this property!! It was such a beautiful view that my partner ended up proposing to me here at sunrise :) This place will always have a special place in our hearts! Thank you!!
