Coming from a big condo in Waikaloa this property was kind of a disappointment. Maybe our fault not doing better research but the NO A\C was a big no-no, although weather was not that hot. Really tiny room etc.

Dolphin stay
one night only. room was big! and tidy. Bit dated but for me that was no problem. Frogs at night outside were a pain but hey if you elect to sleep in the burbs then one needs to appreciate that will be part of the landscape

Lovely local spot for getaway weekend
This was a weekend trip with my nieces so we got a family room, which allowed for 2 bedrooms and a small kitchen, very nice, at a very affordable price. The Hotel does not have A/C but has ceiling and other fans, and is in the tropical forest so it was comfortably cool. Low key, local, very friendly. Comes with motel cats for we cat lovers. 7-10 minute walk to Hilo town and the farmers market, very convenient. Overall a great stay. I may come again with my husband for a fall weekend getaway. Also Hilo is easy to access Volcano National Park.

Great efficiency conveniently located.
Great location in a residential area across the river but just a few blocks from downtown. Plentiful papayas, morning banana bread and avacados from onsite tree made in-room breakfasts delightful. A real find for those who want to cook their own meals.

Instead of driving home late we wanted a place to stay after going to the theater in Hilo. Dolphin Bay Hotel was perfect. Within walking distance to the theater, shops and restaurants made it a very convenient option. Our room and the entire area is very clean. Our room was airy and comfortable. Our host even upgraded at no extra charge. There was a complete kitchen and the shower and bath tub were great. The grounds are kept beautifully, staff were very friendly and helpful - we felt aloha from everyone. We will be back.

It’s an older property but well maintained. More of an inn or motel. Quaint. Small. Check in and check out are very easy and quick. Only ceiling fans but it was all right. We stayed only one night so didn’t get to hang out on the property very much. Ear plugs in the medicine cabinet to counter coqui frog noise.
