Kelly’s rooms are in a cute and private house. There is access to a kitchen and the outdoor seating was great for evening wine sipping and book reading. We left before breakfast for a tour the first morning, but Kelly cheerfully accommodated my gluten intolerance and made us fantastic egg bowls with a cauliflower tortilla the second morning. The location was close to a highway, with a water view over some gorgeous lava cliffs about 10 min away and a fruit stand about 5 min away

The location is a bit off the beaten path which is either good or bad depending on what you are looking for. It’s about 30 min from Hilo, but close to Volcanos National Park

Warm host, alert, engaged, and you can tell she enjoys what she does, and rethinking things to be even better. Loved seeing her baby pineapple plants, and soon she'll be serving up her own pineapple in the excellent breakfast she makes (tailor made to your preferences). If you need travel advice, she shares good tips. And if you wanted solitude, she would figure it out in a second, too.

I can't really complain about hearing chickens, even when I need sleep, because it is a core experience for visiting Hawai'i. There were disposable ear plugs there, but I realized the chickens remind about where food comes from!

It felt like a home away from home. The host Kelly was amazing. She greeted us at the door, with a full tour of the home, her morning breakfast was delicious and willing to accommodate all dietary requirements. Nothing was a bother for her. The property was clean with full use of all the kitchen facilities. I couldn’t recommend staying here enough.

It’s definitely not the standard bed and breakfast. The owner is very attentive to make your stay comfortable and provides all those kind of stuff and treats that can help you feel at home. The house is very clean, even the shared bathroom. You have access to the living room to watch tv or make yourself some tea/coffe or you can rest in the porch. Breakfast is every day a surprise, prepared with fresh ingredients and creativity.

The place is clean and very comfy, there is a lot of love in all the details. Kelly is super nice and she makes you feel right at home. She has lots of tips on what to do and where to go and is very helpful. She also makes a great breakfast everyday and there's muffins, snacks, juice, etc available all the time. We really enjoyed spending two nights during our honeymoon here. There is a grocery store and gas station close by and a nice cove for snorkeling. Kelly is a great host and we can only recommend staying at her lovely place. Mahalo Kelly! Jen&Ben

This was a fantastic stay at the property! The owner, Kelly made all possible effort to make it special - you can expect a great, heart warming welcoming and fantastic experience during your stay. It starts with small snacks, hotel size diapers like body wash or lotion etc. so you almost do not need anything for your stay until a wonderful breakfasts we have got. There is no better way to start a day but with tasty home made breakfast and coffee with freshly (daily!) made muffins! As Kelly noticed that we prefer cappuccino she brought her own coffee machine to make us one. She even has a plan to change the back garden and add jacuzzi so watch the space. Huge thanks for a great stay Kelly and see you again during our trip to Hilo!

Everything was great and even better than we expected!

Friendly host, clean space, good communication, many amenities plus breakfast. The house rules are clear and sensible. We felt appreciated during our stay.

If the other bedrooms are occupied, it is possible to hear noise in the other rooms. The host seems to be aware of this since ear plugs were available in our room. Fortunately, we did not have a problem with the noise.

Kelly is exceptional...she stayed awake late night just to have us checked in late. She got up early to make breakfast for us so we can go for hiking early in the morning. She also allowed us for late checkouts. She provided homemade delicious fruit muffins everyday to carry with us...so warm and pleasant stay..would recommend to everyone ...

Our stay at Hoomaikai Blessings was very pleasant. Kelly was very accommodating. The house was about 45 minutes from Volcanoes National Park and close to Hilo also. The breakfasts were delicious. The room was spacious.

The air conditioning was a bit noisy and there are a lot of roosters crowing.

Great place to stay, and very welcoming. Our host was really nice and can give you good advices. Away from cities, it's a wonderful and peacfeul place to spend your time in. The breakfast is also great, and secure. We spend the night after 2 weeks of camping and trekking/trailing so it was good to find this nice place to relax and enjoy a good night of sleep. Definitely worthy.

Nothing, everything was perfect.
