    Enjoyed Liliuokalani Park and Japanese Gardens, holiday lights festival in Japanese Gardens, live Hawaiian music at Grand Naniloa lobby bar, beautiful free zoo with great animals (donations welcome), waterfalls, proximity to Volcanoes NP. We stayed on the sunny side of the island for beach time for five days, then drove over the mountains and along the beautiful Hamakua coast (which has gorgeous botanical gardens) to Hilo, spent a day in Hilo - walked to Liliuokalani Park and around the Japanese gardens and the little island; drove to the zoo and waterfalls - and after two nights in Hilo checked out and drove to Volcanoes NP and spent the afternoon there, very crowded on Christmas Day; drove around towards Kona, had drinks and food at the King Kamehameha hotel in Kona and looked at the amazing huge collection of historical Hawaiian paintings and accompanying signs there, like a museum of old Hawaii; and drove to the airport and flew home.

    Downtown is pretty tired looking.

    Downtown is pretty tired looking. It really needs some upgrades and fresh look. However, the park is Fantastic!! Beautiful trees and walkways, really relaxing. Needs some coffee shops in the area. We had dinner at Ponds, great food but waiter was rude to the people at the next table.

    Friendly people in spite of inflation and still some great values. Beautiful geography and a wide variety of climates can be experienced on a single island. Downtown has been revitalized and there is even more nostalgia for the old Hawaiian buildings there since the Lahaina devastation on Maui.

    The beds are amazing - we slept really well despite being in a double bed. I love that there’s a fan and AC option. Location is perfect but you still need a car to get around. It suited us perfectly for 2 adults and 2 kids and was easy to go on tours from this location.

    Not a busy centre but certainly had enough features and options for us. Wonderful natural environment - as well as being within close proximity to sensational nature features. Preferred Hilo to Waikiki.

    Hilo is so different than other parts of Hawaii.

    Hilo is so different than other parts of Hawaii. It had an old-fashion-y feel to it. Older buildings in downtown and beautiful moss covered bridges. Gorgeous giant, old banyan trees and other beautiful trees and plants you dont get to see in other more popular locations. Has amazing waterfalls a short drive away and lots of farms that give the area a quaint feel.

    All my needs are met by SCP Staff. The amenities are there for you to enjoy like the comfortable 24Hr. Lounge room. laundry facilities, coffee, tea, water ( hot and cold). We also used the complimentary bike and paddle board and enjoyed it tremendously. Location is near everything. The best is the sea across SCP Hotel where you see turtles, crabs , shrimps and fish. Local people jumping off from the edge of the street and having a picnic on the grass. Wonderful sight to see. Just across the hotel. Go book it in Hilo.

    The ocean veiw room on the 5th floor was exceptonal. The first room the had us in had a veiw of the roof and roftop equipment. I would highly recommend te ocean veiw room. Staff upgraded us for free but It would have been tragic to have to have spend 4 days looking at that roof. The staff at the hotel from front desk, valet, house keeping staff, bar staff, entertainment, was all to shelf. I would highly recommend this resort to anyone.

    Perfect for a short stay if you’re heading to the volcano. It’s a long drive from Kona to see the volcano and waterfalls in a day - staying here was a perfect stop off hotel to make the short drive to the volcano the next morning. Pool was super nice and the bed was comfy. The view of the koi pond was enjoyable too. Overall we enjoyed our stay :)

    Excellent communication from the management. The door code was texted to me prior to our arrival. It’s located minutes from Hilo harbor, in a safe suburban neighborhood. Our cottage had a large bathroom & shower, a small table & 2 chairs, kitchen (though we didn’t cook), an outside deck, a queen bed & 2 twin beds. We enjoyed the large space.

    beautiful suite in home near the ocean just north of Hilo. A great surfing beach a short walk away. Morning breakfast provided by host including Hawaiian fruit and Kona coffee couldn’t be better. Hot tub and swimming pool a wonderful plus. The host very friendly and helpful. We recommend this stay over hotel!

    The view of the oceanfront rooms cannot be beat - the house is about 18 inches from the cliff. We loved watching the ships come into Hilo Bay every morning. The room was spacious and beautiful and they service the room with clean sheets and towels every day. Free ample parking.

    Very nice hotel with a big garden near down town Hilo. The staff is just lovely and very helpful. The atmosphere in the hotel is special. Very relaxed and peaceful. If I ever come again to the Big Island of Hawaii, Wild Ginger will be my first choice for my stay.

    The facility was the best ‘value for money’ in the area. The free local buses meant we could go anywhere. No restaurant in this hotel but that was okay as we went elsewhere, no problem. I would HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone else travelling on a budget.

    My room had an incredible vista down to the ocean, it was wonderful to wake up to! Very cozy room with all your basic amenities, it was perfect for a shore stay in Hilo. Beautiful garden with hammocks and cats! Haha :)
