We just spent 5 nights with Laura and Garvin near Hilo. They are a few minutes from Hilo and their farm is lovely. We stayed in the Hilo bay room which has a great view of Hilo harbour. Our room was much nicer than the one we had at Hilton Hawaiian village and was bigger than our first apartment! Everything... More

We were so lucky to find this B&B just outside Hilo, everything was wonderful about our two night stay here. The beds were amazing and so comfortable, breakfasts delicious, Laura and Garvin the perfect hosts. It was an unexpected find for us and we highly recommend people to stay here when they are visiting Hilo. It is a ten minute... More

We were so fortunate to have had Island Goode's recommended to us by another B&B owner. What a fabulous experience we had there. The room was spotless and comfortable. The view of Hilo Bay from the patio was amazing. Laura and Garvin really went out of their way to accommodate my gluten-free diet; Laura's made-from-scratch pancakes were awesome!! The breakfasts...

All the best: view, breakfast, information, friendliness and knowlege of the island. Garvin and Laura know how and what to do to make one feel comfortable, but more importantly, wanted. Impeccable cleanliness, great home grown fruits, fresh pastries, home raised eggs combine to make a memorable experience. Absolutely wonderful memories. Probably saying what others have said, but there is comfort... More

There is no better way to describe our visit to Hawaii and Island Goode's.

The Goode's made our first visit to the islands one that we will never forget. We will be back, and happily recommend Island... More

Island Goode's saved the end of our vacation! We found this haven after a bad night elsewhere and could not have been happier! Laura and Garvin were very polite, attentive, helpful, and their accomodations are top notch! Our room (really more like a suite!) was spotless, the bed comfy with a sleep #, all the ammenties, a lovely view, nice... More

We stayed at Island Goodes for a couple of nights when we first hit the Big Island. The facilities are top notch. The pictures here completely represent the property. No bad "surprises" here. Very clean rooms; the beds were Sleep Comfort and breakfasts are tasty and healthy. Garvin and Laura are operating a sustainable farm and we got to taste... More

Would have liked to have stayed a couple of more nights. Garvin and Laura where very gracious hosts.The room we stayed in had a king bed and 2 twins in another room.Very very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. Hot tub could have been 2 degrees warmer. Room was supplied with all necessary amenities including lots of coffee.

This is the place to stay. Just a few short miles out of the city of Hilo, easily accessible off the main road but when you're at the house, you're in the country. Everything is quiet, peaceful and welcoming. Laura and Garvin are thE perfect hosts. The accommodations are clean, modern and the rooms beautifully appointed. Breakfasts are stunning. Plenty... More
