Great place to stay right in the heart of Hilo. Whaler's Inn earns its name; part of the enjoyment of staying here is discovering all the little nautical details throughout the house. For example, the drainer basket in the kitchen sink has a little whale on it; later in the stay, I noticed that the TP dispenser was a whale's tail. Very fun, and always in good taste. Recommended.

Great stay, exactly what we needed for our time in Hilo. The A/C is window units, which worked well. We chose to have the windows closed and use the A/C since it was very rainy at night. Beautifully decorated, attention to detail, clean, and very comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

Very pleasant place, close to everything

The property has a spaceous kitchen/great room area and a very comfy couch. The kitchen has everything we needed and we were able to have several meals at the property. The shower is large and comfortable. The two bedrooms have a queen bed with plenty of room for suitcases, etc. The overall decor is lovely and interesting. We enjoyed working the puzzles and apreciated a chance to play Crimes Against Humanity.

Easy, Delightfully Quaint, Clean, & Generous.

So close to it all…necessities, restaurants, shopping, waterfalls, all the things; felt like everything was a 10 minute trip at most. We felt right at home. Communication from host was concise, consistent, and ahead of schedule. We were given pertinent details and pictures of the location so we could find it easily after a long flight (we were exhausted) as well as recommendations on where to go. Love this place! Also…it’s adorable.

Cute House, Great Location, Well-Equipped

We had a great stay at Whaler’s Inn! It is so cute and comfortable with everything you need for a great stay! Loved the welcome goodies! (Thank you!). Only thing I’d point out is the listing says it has a double sofa sleeper…this is incorrect. It has 2 queen beds and a SOFA (they did provide sheets and a pillow for said sofa). We are a family of 5, so that was a disappointment that one of the kids ended their vacation on a sofa, but knowing this ahead of time, I would book this home again! It was perfect!
