Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Hilo

Stay here if you’re looking for: - Conveniently located - cute space with plenty of room - quiet, private location - everything you need for a restful trip I promise you won’t miss the ac with the lovely breezes and the fans, or the tv as there is plenty to do near by. Now, we did have some geckos who snuck inside, and humidity issues with drying clothes washed in the washer, but there was a dehumidifier we used in the small space that dried everything quick and we named the geckos Florence and Gail and we lived peacefully together for 4 days.

Loved this place and Kaleo as a host! We stayed here for our son’s college graduation and it was perfect. Its location is near everything with a beautiful view out back. The house is spacious and has so many items in the kitchen - serving pieces, cooking utensils, pans and spices. It was perfect for hosting our family one evening. It is on a busy street and the airport is across the road, but it didn’t bother us. At night it was just white noise. The back deck was our favorite location. It is huge with a great view of the park and water. Kaleo was so nice, texting to make sure we were comfortable and even gave us a late checkout after graduation. Thanks!

Definitely one of the better AirBNB's we've stayed at. Location was in a quiet area only about 12 minutes to downtown Hilo. There were lots of little extras that made our stay stand out including the Japanese toilet, good quality towels, and the loofahs provided. Things were well labeled in the apartment and it was very nice to have access to laundry. Apartment was very clean too.

Great place to stay and close to all attractions on the south and west sides of the island!

My favorite Airbnb stay ever!

John was lovely and gracious, had lots of tips and tricks to share, the pets were also wonderful! The place itself is very serene, accessible to both Hilo and the national Park. Would highly recommend!

This is the perfect place to stay in Hilo, it’s comfortable, cozy and its location is ideal. We had a wonderful time staying with such a friendly and thoughtful host. The home was super clean, and had all the amenities one could imagine and a few extras. Howard is an excellent communicator and incredibly helpful. We loved our stay!

This is a beautiful home that is right on the water. The house was amazing and well appointed. I would stay here again.

We had a great stay! Scott was excellent at communicating throughout and was a very reliable host.

I could really use a studio so cozy like this one that fit our vibe 100%. The only flaw would be at night, if it’s hot, the termites are out to get yahhh! The host Hal, upon check in felt like I was staying with blood family. Easygoing and fulfilled our needs. Mahalo Nui

Really loved our stay. It was raining pretty heavily but her place was perfect for it. Windows looked out into the forest with beautiful plants and orchids. The rain sounded beautiful rolling off the roof. This made for the most cozy of stays.

Tony and Larissa were very welcoming. It’s clear they put a lot of care and intent in their Airbnb. This is evident in quality cookware in the kitchen, a beyond comfortable bed, and hand-crafted home improvement projects. We greatly enjoyed our stay!

Pavel and Irina were wonderful hosts — incredibly helpful and accommodating. The place is peaceful, comfortable, and surrounded by stunning views. Watching the sunrise was truly magical. Our daughter especially enjoyed walking around the farm, watching the cows and hens. We also picked fresh lychees.

Super clean, excellent and pristine furniture. The garden and the surrounding were fascinating. I was surprised to learn that we're allowed to use the barbecue grill and the bon fire but unfortunately had little time to use as there are a lot of things to do at the Big Island. Hopefully next time! Thanks for the beautiful stay!

Truly an oasis! Dana and Gregory are wonderful hosts and Rivendell was one of our favorite Air BnB stays. The apartment was spotless and well-stocked, the bed was so comfortable, and the hot tub was very well-maintained and heated quickly. Now for the best part! The landscaped property and waterfall made for peaceful mornings and restful evenings. We wished we were staying longer. Mahalo for the perfect weekend stay! We will be back!

This place is great. It is surrounded by trees so very quiet except for sound of the nature. Very spacious for 2 people. The location is not very far from the volcano (~40min drive) and Hilo, so I would recommend it to anyone waiting for the volcano eruption.

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.

LOVED this location and the unit! Gorgeous views of the adjacent park from the lanais and a great place for morning walks or runs. I also really appreciated the extra touches — the welcome basket, yoga mats, well-equipped kitchen and bathroom, and a very comfortable bed. Great value. I’d absolutely stay here again.

Maggie was very responsive and helpful. She had great recommendations and was flexible when I needed to add a night to my trip. The room has a great location and the balcony was amazing. It was very clean the bed was comfy and the fan combined with the AC kept it very cool. The pool was really big and had fresh water which makes a big difference. Overall a great experience A+ Mahalo Maggie!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The unit was just as pictured and was really beautiful, clean, and modern. It was conveniently located within a short drive to the downtown Hilo area where there are plenty of shopping and dining options. We were also short drives to several beaches. Our host, Linda, provided clear instructions on how to reach and access the condo and was very responsive with any questions we had. I would definitely recommend staying here if you plan to visit Hilo.

My daughter and I came for my son’s UH Hilo graduation and I invited her Dad to stay with us as well. The 3 of us really enjoyed Liza’s place. The kitchen is fantastic- really modern & extremely well equipped. We appreciated the large fridge with filtered water & ice in the door. 2nd bathroom was very handy when we were all getting ready. Location is only 5 min drive to downtown or less. I really can’t think of any negatives or items to be aware of - it was better than described, one of the best places we’ve stayed. We didn’t use the pool so I can’t comment on that. Garbage was easy to find. We didn’t use complex’s laundry either so I have no comment about that. I was surorised that we didn’t hear much from the other units. It’s a quiet building and everyone we passed was friendly. If you’re sleeping in the primary suite, be forewarned there is noise from the road below which gets loud at times. I messaged her twice with Qs and she replied super quickly. Thx for a great stay Liza!

Staying here was my home away from home. We enjoyed the peace, sort of away from the busy roads. It was in the middle of a lot of places. They provided everything that we needed. Other than that, we will definitely return on our next trip here to Hilo.

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!

Wonderful, love the two toilets for the four of us
