Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Orchidlands Estates

The house was well-furnished with modern appliances and a kitchen stocked with the cooking essentials. Sparkling clean as well. Host was very responsive and even let us check in a few hours early when we were rained out of our day hike. As the listing states, it does not have air conditioning, but it does have ceiling fans so it was cool enough for us in mid-spring, though still humid.

Dara’s place was amazing! It was very comfortable, peaceful, beautifully surrounded with awesomely colored plants and fruit trees. There were a lot of amenities. The keurig coffee machine was a definite plus as you could enjoy your morning coffee inside looking out to the backyard or at the outdoor table and chairs at the front of the house. Her place was very clean and spacious for myself and my two friends. The living room couch and chair was very comfortable as well. Everything was well organized and not cluttered at all. Very easy to maintain. I’m grateful for the indoor washer and dryer as it allowed me to leave with clean clothes versus having a luggage full of dirty clothes. The ironing board and iron really came in handy as well to press the clothes I needed to wear for the event I was attending. I would highly recommended staying at Dara’s place again! 5 stars and then some for sure!

This was one of the nicest Airbnb experiences we've had. I say this because Jenell was a wonderful host and everything was just as advertised. If I had anything to add it would be that the enclosed patio was icing on the cake. We gathered each morning for coffee and breakfast and ended up spending time out in the afternoon as well. The temperature was perfect with afternoon breezes and we even grilled steaks one day on the gas BBQ which was provided. Just a wonderful experience and we hope to one day return.

The Whale House was even better than advertised! The location was easy to find and so beautiful! We used this as our home away from home to explore Volcanoes National Park, Punalu’u Black sand beach, Volcano winery, and multiple waterfalls. Our family also enjoyed relaxing, reading, and napping on the lanai and in the hammock swings. The garden out back was a delight to explore. The lava cliffs were also very cool!! David & Chrystal provided everything we needed and more! The kitchen was well equipped- we made several meals. The cooler and beach equipment came in handy when we visited the black sand beach. The bikes were also a nice bonus. We really never wanted to leave and would love to come back soon!

Morris greeted us in the first day. He is very friendly and had everything and anything we could have asked for. At the last minute we didn’t bring our babies but he had the pack n plays set up and even supplied diapers and wipes and a separate trash can for the stinky diapers.

Mahalo for a wonderful and peaceful stay near VNP! We loved the decor and all the extra touches, well stocked kitchen, for cooking needs, coffee/tea/creamer, and cleaning supplies. Everything was exceptionally pristine. We so appreciated the early morning alert of the erupting Kīlauea volcano. It was a perfect finale to our stay!

As one who’s traveled and stayed on Hawai’i island many times, Tisiphonie’s place was just what I needed to find… Location was great, nice and peaceful, surrounded by raw land that brings on a feel of seclusion… Not far from the hustle and bustle of Hilo town, 20-25 minute leisurely drive, and shorter to Kea’au stores or even the neighborly 7/11 and Kurtistown Cafe… Kīlauea is maybe a 25-30 minute drive the other direction, very centrally located if staying on the East side… Check in was smooth and easy and detailed perfectly… Everything about this home was great, nice and clean, all the necessities you need and even more available if you have children to entertain… Tisiphonie was always available if needed or even just to talk story with… I would highly recommend her home to all my friends when visiting Hawai’i island…

Noah s place was great. Perfect location!! The volcano even erupted while we were there.!! Only 10 min to get there too! Yay. Def rent this place

We enjoyed our very short stay. Halford’s place was clean and comfortable and located about 40 minutes from Hawaii Volcanoes National Park which was our purpose for the visit. Halford was great in communicating with us. The only issue we had was that my gps service was not recognizing the road his house was on. Once we got that figured out everything was super. We would stay again.

We cannot say enough positive things about Tulpe as a wonderfully kind, responsive host. The location is convenient & quiet/peaceful. Check in & out as well as all communication was incredibly smooth. Everything is as pictured, very clean, & has everything you’d need. Highly recommend a stay here. :)

Amazing location to volcanos national park! Would stay again! Easy to feel right at home.

Anthony’s (Tony) place was quite the revelation, a little paradise!. Located close to downtown, it was perfect for exploring Hilo by foot including local cafes, grocery shops, farmers market and the odd pub! Tony was a truly amazing host and quick to respond. The listing was exactly as pictured—clean, cozy, and full of Hawaiian charm, with beautiful artefacts, and some paintings he has actually done himself! The kitchen was fully equipped with all the appliances one would ever need and complimentary teas, water, coffee (and a coffee maker or filters – for the traditional coffee drinker to actually brew the coffee), which I diligently used. The property also has lots of books for the avid reader, puzzles and board games such as dominos, chess, cards to keep one busy. Wifi was fast, and a Bluetooth speaker is provided to listen to favourite music. I would 100% stay again! Mahalo dear Tony and consider accepting my invite for a safari in Kenya!

Rhonda and Jeff were fantastic hosts! Their place was modern, spotless, cozy, and so thoughtfully set up. The small AC unit was surprisingly powerful—as long as the room door stayed open and the ceiling fan was on low, it stayed perfectly cool. They thought of everything: beach gear (chairs, towels, snorkels), bug spray, even an umbrella by the door. The bed was super comfortable, hot water was reliable, and the assigned parking spot was large and convenient. My husband also appreciated the outdoor cloths for cleaning gear. It’s a bit of a drive from Hilo and Keaau, so a vehicle is needed, but otherwise, it was a smooth and enjoyable stay. We’d absolutely recommend this Airbnb and would happily come back. Rhonda and Jeff are such thoughtful and lovely hosts—thank you both for your warm hospitality!

AMAZING HOUSE !! Had 5 people stay with me and each of us felt comfortable and relaxed with the amount of space there was. Highly recommended anyone needing a place to stay with groups.

Wonderful place to stay, isolated and peaceful. If you're lucky, you get to see the most wonderful night sky -- dependent on if it's cloudy or not. Kitchen has so many different amenities and a pantry storage in case you forgot to pick something up like sugar or flour or rice. It's an outdoors kitchen and is very clean considering but you may see a few bugs simply because it's outdoors -- not because they are attracted to spills or left over food. Room was clean although the bedding was old and with holes. I wanted to check in during the day time but ended up coming at night. Was not too hard to find, but can be eerie by how dark it is. Lastly, highly recommend the Pele room compared to the other rooms! Is the furthest from the communal kitchen so you don't hear other guests conversing there and is also the closest to the parking lot so it can be easy to get from your car to room and back.

This was a lovely, peaceful Airbnb in a nice neighborhood immediately outside of Hilo. Gregory met us upon arrival to ensure that we had what we needed. The unit included everything that we could have needed and more, including a very well-stocked kitchen, yoga mats, guide books, and beach chairs. We could easily get to downtown Hilo within a ten-minute drive and return to the unit for a soak in the hot tub. We loved Hilo and would absolutely stay here again.

Awesome place and responsive host. Right on Carl Smith Beach Park, which is beautiful. Balcony is screened which cuts down on bugs, place and was super clean with thoughtful beach supplies that made our stay much more comfortable.

I was there with my boyfriend for the week. The location was great! Within walking distance g distance to great restaurants and the best farmers market I’ve ever been to. The views are absolutely stunning. Watching the sunrise in the morning was so beautiful. We felt right at home. I would definitely stay there again! Thank you so much Carla and Joe! It was a little slice of heaven there.

This condo was beautiful and spacious. She left soooo many amenities we were blown away. Like sunscreen if you needed it, woman products, creamer in the fridge, chips and macadamia nut treats. Truly a wonderful well stocked condo, not to mention the stunning view from the deck. We will stay here again for sure! Mahalo for having us

We had a really nice stay ☀️ it is a very nice place, the lanai is so beautiful. You have a perfect view and you can hear the nature while falling asleep 😍 It was very clean and you can reach nice places within a short drive 👍🏻 Mahalo for a perfect stay in Hilo!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The unit was just as pictured and was really beautiful, clean, and modern. It was conveniently located within a short drive to the downtown Hilo area where there are plenty of shopping and dining options. We were also short drives to several beaches. Our host, Linda, provided clear instructions on how to reach and access the condo and was very responsive with any questions we had. I would definitely recommend staying here if you plan to visit Hilo.

Lovely and spacious for my 3 month stay for work. All the amenities that I needed for cooking and cleaning, communal laundry in bldg, good wifi coverage. Safe and walkable to downtown which I loved. Small amount of noise with neighbours and ants/insects which are expected to some degree being in an apt bldg, in the tropics. I would definitely stay there again:)

We had a great stay! Joe and Cindy were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout. The place was beautiful, well-stocked with everything we needed, and parking was super easy. Would definitely consider staying here again!

I have stayed in a lot of Airbnb accommodations. This condo is the best. It it's perfect for one or two people it they aren't sharing beds. I love sitting on the balcony and watching the waves. I have been here multiple times and I am very comfortable here. Restaurants, market, and beaches are close and easy to access. I love staying here. Thank you!
