Pick a Big Island Hawaii Lodging that’s Right for You!
With Big Island Hawaii lodging you have an unbeatable variety of choices, ranging from luxurious villas with private pools, to intimate beach cottages.
If you are a large family, you may want all the comforts of home with more privacy, more amenities and costing less than several hotel rooms, and Big Island Hawaii vacation rentals offer you exactly that!
In a hotel, not only have you privacy only in your own room, but after the luggage is spread out, how much space is really left?? In contrast, a vacation rental offers you a fully furnished home with garden, lanai, sometimes a pool and many other convenient amenities.

Big Island Hawaii Lodging: Hilo
For charm and ambiance and to go off the beaten track, rent an intimate cottage for two.
The Hula Cove is a cozy little cottage with the feel of a vintage Hawaiian beach house. Located not far form historic Hilo, this is an oceanfront property without the premium oceanfront price tag. Hula Cove isn’t fancy, but it’s so much fun!
If you love snorkeling, just take the 5-min. walk to the Waiopae marine conservation area - acres of oceanfront ponds with an astonishing diversity of sea creatures, fish, and sea turtles.
Because it’s located right on the Waiopae ponds protected from the open ocean, you can just roll out of bed and wade in... If you are a novice swimmer or don’t feel comfortable snorkeling in the open ocean, these tide pools are safe to snorkel or just float in crystal-clear, 80-degree water year round.

Whether you want a romantic getaway, family time, volcano adventures or sightseeing tours, enjoy all the comforts of home in this 2-bedroom, 1-bath Sugi House, just outside the Volcano National Park.
