I've never been a fan of B&Bs after a couple interesting experiences. This is a wonderful exception. We actually stayed here in December 2011, but I wanted to make sure I got around to leaving some feedback online. Unfortunately, Tripadvisor has this listed in Papaikou and it gets neglected in the Hilo listing. It is definitely in the Hilo area,... More

We stayed at this B&B just north of Hilo for two nights. Our "Hilo Bay" room had the view of the bay at the foot of the bed. The room was nice sized with a King sized Sleep Number bed, satellite TV, large bathroom, fridge, toaster, table chairs, couch, etc. We were served a yummy breakfast (eggs, pancakes, and tons...

Island Goode's is very conveniently located about 7 miles north of Hilo and off the main road. As long as you don't mind the sounds of nature (treefrogs, birds, rain on the roof, etc...), it's perfectly peaceful. Room was very very comfortable with views of Mauna Kea - a real treat if there is snow on the summit. Garvin and... More

We had a great room with lots of space, a king-size bed, a big TV, a small fridge, and a microwave. It was very quiet, excluding the epic Hilo-style rain. Garvin and Laura were very gracious and accommodating hosts. We got fresh island fruit for breakfast as well as eggs, bacon, toast, coffee, tea, juice and on and on. Don't... More

We were very glad we stayed here instead of down in Hilo. Fun to stay on a farm and Laura and Garvin have done a great job of decorating and making the room comfortable. We stayed in the Mauna Kea room and it was huge. The Coqui frogs get loud at night so if you sleep lightly bring ear plugs,... More

We stayed three nights in February but wished we stayed longer. Island Goode's is well located seven miles north of Hilo and there is so much to explore on this side of the Island. We had a large room with a microwave, plates, cutlery, kettle and glasses. The bed is adjustable and we found setting number 20 the most comfortable.... More

We can't imagine a better B&B. Anywhere. This was our first time in Hawaii. Another B&B on the Big Island had nothing left when we called, but they said Island Goode's might have something. They did. We arrived late at night so we didn't see the gorgeous scenery until the next morning. But we realized how lucky we were as... More

Island Goode's B&B has is the best B&B we have ever stayed. They have it perfected from the room with the sleep number beds to the great private breakfast. We stayed three nights and this was the perfect base to travel from. Although not in Hilo it was only 8 miles down the road. Laura and Gaven were great hosts.... More

We recently stayed at Island Goode's during our trip to the Big Island. We wanted something different for the two days we planned for Hilo, and a B & B sounded like a nice treat. We were fortunate to have found availability at Island Goode's. Although not technically in Hilo, it's within a ten minute drive, and getting back and... More

If you want to be off the beaten path a bit but still have all the creature comforts of home---this B&B is for you. Our room was spacious and nicely decorated . The four poster sleep number bed was adorned with the most luscious linens and comforter you can imagine. Great to sink into after an active day. The owners... More
