There is a screened garden house with a table and chairs in the middle of the garden for guests to enjoy a relaxing fresh air snack. The guest house is located on a gated property approximately three miles from downtown Hilo. It's more than a beautiful place to stay, it’s a lifestyle.

A private serene opens up to views of the garden below for ultimate relaxation. Our Retreat is a perfect Hawaiian getaway for couples celebrating their special occasion and is centrally located making it an ideal home base while exploring exotic points of interest on the island. Hilo is famous for its warm aloha spirit, relaxed lifestyle, unique shops, art galleries and restaurants with local regional cuisine.

Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephanie M. Sep 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Had an awesome stay! The property is about 10 mins from town and really close to so much. Loved hearing the sounds of the wildlife and getting to see all the stars (there are very few streetlights so you have an amazing view of the sky!) everything was clean and quiet. Great place! ##### Stephanie M. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### K P. Nov 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Convenient location!

Hosts were very friendly and gave you the proper privacy, while still being easily accessible if you needed them. The animals on the property were an added bonus! I HIGHLY recommend this place!!! ##### John H. Stayed 14 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Debbie K.
