"We just returned from a week long vacation on the Big Island. Before we take any vacation, we always search for a guidebook. This time we had the good fortune to find Big Island Revealed, 3rd edition. Of all the books that we have used on our travels, this one was the very best. We used it every day for restaurants, side trips and directions. The maps were wonderful. The book is well written, funny and always honest. (This is not always the case with guidebooks). We traveled the whole island and the book never steered us wrong."

Hilo Bay Hostel
(808) 933-2771
101 Waianuenue Ave.

11 rooms, Internet access, tv and dvd player in lobby, bbq. No phones, but they will take messages. A very nice hostel with good, clean rooms, bedding included. You can tell they really put in the effort. Shared baths. Dorms are $25 per person/per night, up to 6 people per dorm. Private rooms are $65 (shared bath) or $75 (private bath) per night, 1-2 people per room. Rooms are about 200 sq. ft. If you have a large group, they may rent you the whole place. On the second floor of a historic building built in 1911 on a busy corner. Parking is nearby in a lot for free. They also have a property located off-site called The Garden (very rustic at present) with campsites for $15/night, dorms $25 and private rooms $55-$65. The coqui frog problem at The Gardens is particularly noticeable, and they will give you free earplugs.
