The Royal Palms was very comfortable. We especially enjoyed relaxing on the patio with a view of the amazing palm trees. Laurel was a great host! She provided us with items if we were missing anything in the suite and welcomed us to use the ice and filtered water from her outdoor fridge. We were delighted with the attractive and delicious fruit tray that was on the table when we arrived. We would highly recommend a stay at The Royal Palms.

Paradise with Dogs!
The accommodation was perfect for just me, or if I had my wife with me. Large bed, large closet, spacious bathroom, and a good-sized common area. I was greeted with a handwritten note with some homemade banana bread ( I think), a cluster of bananas, a couple of ripe papaya, and a few oranges. The private lanai was peaceful, and the grounds were lovely. The hosts are on site, but other than an initial hello when I arrived, I did not see or hear from them the entire stay. The property is 8 acres up on a slope, with views (through the trees) of the ocean several miles away. If you are looking for a country getaway, this is your spot. If you are looking for something close to town, keep looking.

Royal Palms is “no ka oi”
My wife and I stayed at Royal Palms from November 8 to November 11 and had a wonderful time! Check in was very easy. A warm welcome note with a scrumptious fruit basket set a welcoming ohana feeling that was just right. The grounds and landscaping provided a lovely, tropical, and peaceful setting with relaxing nature sounds at night. The cottage decorum is elegantly casual with an awesome dry sauna and well appointed lanai. The Royal Palms cottage is definitely on our favorites list for big Island accommodations. Hosts Lauren and Kalani love this place and it shows! Aloha and mahalo nui!

Lovely and a little loud
The place is charming. The setting is beautiful and convenient for visiting the Hilo area. The fruit and banana bread are delicious. As advertised, there is a kennel on the property, and during our stay, the dogs (and frogs) were particularly loud during the night (new puppies). But Laurel kindly apologized, and the listing gives fair warning.

Beautiful Experience!
We were greeted with a tray of fruit that included a welcome note and some delicious food stuffs that made us feel welcomed & comforted right away!
The giant trees and greenery on the property makes you feel what it’s truly like to be in Hawaii.
The space is very clean, the rules/expectations are fair. I would recommend this location 10/10 to any of my loved ones.
Thanks again!

Laurel was easy to work with, helpful and gave a lovely tour of her property.
My favorite parts include the aisle of tall palms, the sound of the rain, frogs, and birds at night, and of course enjoying the sauna.

Excellent Place
Stayed two nights in Dec 2023. Beautiful yard, great location. Very clean and it has all the stuffs you would need. Owners are very friendly and accommodating; we even got a tour on the property in the morning of check out day. But air conditioner in the living room is pretty loud. Sofa bed can only fit one person and it’s not very comfortable if you are adult and have to sleep on the floor mats. In overall, it’s a great place.

nice cottage in the jungle
Nice place. Its a little far away from facilities but I liked the isolation. One thing : it can get noisy at night due to invasive coqui frogs, but that's life on this side of the island.

オーナーについて
オーナー : Laurel Smithson
I am born and raised in Hawaii. My husband Kalani and I love to travel the world and meet new people. We wanted to share a bit of paradise with our guests. Note a dog boarding kennel shares the property.We are the original owner of the property. Built the home and cottage. Planted all trees, orchards and landscape ourselves. Our labor of love. Hawaii is where we call home. The Royal Palm Cottage is New, built in August 2019.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
The road we live on is quite historic. Sugar cane used to be planted on this section of Chin Chuck Road. The soil is very fertile and most of the property is home to over 200 exotic fruit trees. Lychee, Rambuton, Mangosteen, Mango, Papaya and Atemoya. The parcels are mostly10 acres and are well maintained and most have agriculture zoning. Many fruit orchards and farms line both sides of the road. It is a breath of fresh air. On a brisk winter morning, you can see Mauna Kea and the telescopes on a snow capped mountain. When you drive down the road, you may see a whale spouting in the ocean.
この宿泊施設の特徴
15 miles from Hilo town with not even one stop light along the way. Beautiful coast line drive in both directions along highway 19. 500 foot elevation keeps us cool with tradewind breezes, well maintained Farm style neighborhood. Tuesday's we have a Hakalau Farmer's market that hosts live music and local farmers with their produce baked goods and crafts. We also have 2 ladies from Thailand making delicious pad Thai, green paypaya salad and curries right there on site. Lots of new and old farmers join together to add to Hakalau's charm.
