Bernadette’s place was truly an escape, tucked away in the beautiful nature of the surrounding area. The studio was immaculate, comfortable, cozy, and had everything you could possibly need. It really felt like a home away from home. We would definitely stay here again upon returning to the Hilo area.

The perfect retreat to begin our stay on this beautiful island. We did not pre plan many activities for our time there, but did book a Lomilomi Hawaiian Massage for our first morning. Take my advise and plan in advance to be pampered in such a special way. My husband and I booked a 90 minute couples massage and could not have been happier. As for dining options, we followed Bernadette and Randy's suggestions each time that we dined out, and found that they have very good taste. Each restaurant was locally owned and served delicious meals in unassuming, relaxing surroundings. We also took the Wailea Horseback Adventure. The stables were located about 6 miles away and provided an easy ride (suitable for all levels of riding experience), an opportunity to swim at a waterfall and hear our paniola guide talk story throughout. All in all, this was an experience that we will never forget. Mahalo Bernadette & Randy- a hui hou kakou

We loved our stay at Bernadette's cottage. It was spotless and had many amenities so that we could make a quick breakfast in the mornings and enjoy coffee on the private patio. The place was exactly as described and felt like a little oasis. The setting was a dream - lush tropical plants out of every window and we fell asleep to the frogs and the rain and woke to the bird calls. It was incredibly peaceful and the bed was very comfortable. It was close enough to enjoy all that Hilo had to offer and had easy access to the botanical gardens and coastal drive. The hosts were friendly and responsive and we'd recommend this place without hesitation to friends and family looking to explore this side of the island in a quiet, tropical setting.

Great location right near Onomea botanical gardens and trail. Strong WIFI for those that need to work with video calls. Very clean and feels private. Make sure to get a massage from Bernadette!

Bernadette is an amazing host. Her communication, attention to detail of space and recommendations as well as being the best masseuse I’ve ever had. Enjoy a comfortable, beautiful space and take the walk to “What’s Shaken “ as recommended. Delightful experience.
