This was a fabulous bed and breakfast. Kelly’s hospitality was excellent. It is also situated in a good spot for visiting all the things on the east side of Big Island. Tremendous value for the money 👍

Lovely hotel - the rooms were clean and modern and the staff made the stay wonderful. The 24/7 tea and coffee in the reception was delightful, and the seating area by the pool was lovely for an after dinner chat and drink. Close to lots of walkable breakfast options and a short drive from downtown Hilo.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay. Nice big room with a veranda looking down to the Pacific. Gloriously peaceful in beautiful surroundings. You can walk around the farm if you wish. Very large, comfortable communal area for use by the guests. Our hosts were unobtrusive but available 24 hours a day if required. I would recommend this to anyone. Five stars all the way.

We stayed here in Sept 2014 during a bit of a heatwave. The drive from Hilo is well signposted and the directions from the Inn's website were excellent. We stayed in the Hibiscus room in Harmony House. We had a fantastic view of the waterfall from our very comfortable, clean accommodation. The walk down to the waterfall was fine as it had been quite dry. The view of the starry skies on a clear night were amazing because of the seclusion and low artificial light levels.Tricia provided us with a...

If only we could have stayed longer!
We had booking the glamping unit, but because of water issues Theresa switched us to the Bungalow, which was so cosy.
She agreed alternative breakfast arrangements as we had to leave early on checkout. We only had time to meet the chickens and ducks at the doorstep, but we saw the donkey and goats sheltering from the rain! I would definitely recommend staying here if you're making a trip to Volcano NP.

Great views of the ocean and surrounding greenery. The property is well maintained and the communal area with pool table and games Is a great touch.
Jade and the team went to every effort to make sure our stay was amazing.
A 5 minute drive Into Hilo town but beware if you choose to walk it, the 20 minute walk back is all uphill.

I stayed here for 5 nights and was very comfortable. The bed was quite firm, which I like, and I slept very well. The bathroom was a good size and the shower was good. There was a fridge, microwave and coffee maker in a small alcove with crockery and cutlery. The tv was mounted high up on the wall. The free wifi worked really well. There was covered space to sit outside and I could access my room from the outside as well as from an internal hallway. There was a dehumidfier in the room...
