Very nice place, in the forest, at approx. 20 minutes from Kona. Very quiet and 'green' place. Hosts have been so nice, really helpful with every morning some precious tips on places to visit, beaches to see, restaurants, etc. Wonderful breakfasts, made with products (fruits, coffee, eggs...) from the garden and enjoyed with an amazing view on the Kona bay....

Looking for an authentic Big Island experience? Far away from the maddening crowds sits a paradise on the hillside. Shai and Trina have created an inviting and luscious tropical inn. The view is spectacular. Shai's gourmet breakfasts are fabulous and plentiful. Imagine drinking coffee grown on the premises, eating avocados and bananas just picked from the side of the lanai....

We stayed at lilikoi inn for three nights in May. The whole experience was wonderful. Our hosts Trina and Shai were amazingly knowledgeable of the local area and went out of their way to provide us with all we wanted. Shai's breakfasts were wonderful and satisfying and the views from their Lani were stunning. Trina's stories and open friendliness and... More

Excellent hosts. The breakfast was a dream. The hot tub at night was a unforgettable experience. The rooms are huge and very nicely decorated. We just regret one thing... that we didn't stay longer! We highly recommend this B&B.

Our stay at the Lilikoi Inn was just perfect. We still wish we could have Shai’s breakfast every morning. Just one piece of advice... if you are travelling around the islands as we did, make sure the Lilikoi Inn is your last stop because nothing will compare after that. Every other B&B/hotel will disappoint you!

Shai & Trina are an extraordinary couple who have created all that Hawai'i is meant to be. The setting is lush and amazingly beautiful. Enjoy savory breakfasts brought to you on their lanai w/ a panoramic view and served w/ an artist's touch. The aromatic Kona coffee you'll drink is grown right on the property. Also, some delectable food surprises... More

We arrived on the Big Island on a Sunday morning and went directly to the Lilikoi Inn, completely oblivious that check-in was not until later in the afternoon. Our wonderful host, Shai, met us on the drive thinking the guests that had just left forgot something and came back. Though he could have sent us off to explore and come... More

Imagine living like a local on the Big Island, sweeping views, fresh fruits, insider tips and friendly relaxed atmosphere. In the morning sip on estate grown coffee, while gazing at the very plants which grew your brew. You will have a delicious and substantial gourmet breakfast every morning! The local bounty is impressive. Shai and Trina have created a lovely... More

With only four rooms available, the setting is very private. The views are wonderful and the host and hostess are welcoming and very accessible. The breakfast in the morning was completely over the top. The descriptions the Yerlicks have posted regarding their Inn are very accurate. The inn was everything that we had hoped for and our family definitely enjoyed... More
