D&S Bed and Breakfast

Our family had a wonderful stay here. The location is excellent, right across from the market and we felt very safe. Lots of restaurants and shops nearby we loved being in the heart of Hilo. Doug and Sue were very friendly and accommodated us really well. The lanai was a lovely little oasis in the city, and there was alway fresh local fruit and snacks for us. I highly recommend this place.

Did not get the pleasure of meeting Sue, but Doug was a hoot! He was very sweet and fun to talk to. The rooms were clean, adorable and the other guests were friendly- no doubt following the vibe of the owners. No TV (so?) but fridge, coffeemaker, shower with plenty of hot water. They provided a lovely morning meal of fresh fruit, granola, baked goods, boiled eggs, cereal...etc etc. The building is lovely and the rainstorms were a perfect touch to a sweet little welcome to Hawaii! Ask to see the garden in the back- mindblowing that this is in the middle of Hilo. Affordable! Freindly! We'll be back! p.s. best farmers market I've ever been to right across the street on Mondays.

This bed and breakfast beats all those grimy hotels in Hilo. The rooms are clean and nice, the location is excellent, and Doug and Sue are great! We'll definitely be back!

I had a wonderful experience staying with Doug and Sue. They were friendly, attentive and very very sweet. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. I loved the layout of the place. I would certainly stay there again. P.S. They even sent me a hand written post card thanking me for staying with them. Doesn't get any sweeter!!!!

you get what you see! awesome location next to the farmers market. Fresh produce is a short walk across the street. Doug and Sue are great people that are very accommodating and make your stay a great experience. I would recommend this stay to anyone!

New to the island, we were lucky to find D&S B&B in Hilo. It was affordable, yet very clean with nice rooms and convenient to anything we could need from downtown. Directly across from the famous Hilo Farmer's Market and just over a block from an ocean front park! The owners were friendly and helpful and we plan on recommending this location to our family and friends.

Stayed 8 nights and will be back in the Spring! D&S is truly an 'oasis of tranquility' as promised - quiet and restful but downtown within walking distance to shops, restaurants, bakeries, museums, and of course the Farmers Market. Doug and Sue are laid-back, excellent hosts eager to assist but never intrusive. Loved the fresh fruit always available, great selection of books and games on the lanai, loaner umbrellas and shopping bags - they think of everything. Perfect place for those not looking for a '17 pillows on the bed secluded honeymoon retreat' but a comfortable welcoming base to relax after touring the town or Big Island sites. I've recommended it already to family and friends!

A great place to relax near downtown Hilo - laid back, informal, wonderful innkeepers, quiet. Close to all downtown markets, the harbor, shops, restaurants. No mints on the pillows, but every convenience you need. Ron in Oakland

Excellent downtown location and yet tranquil atmosphere due to architectural design and tropical vegetation. Each room is self-contained and opens to the central lanai. Clean and artistically decorated. Innkeepers are gracious hosts. I did not take advantage of breakfast, but I gathered that effort is made to provide what the guest would prefer. D&S B&B was the perfect ending to a very enjoyable holiday on the Big Island.

My stay at the D&S Bed and Breakfast was one of the best experiences I have had while visiting the Big Island of Hawaii. The Innkeepers, Doug and Sue, are fantastic and wonderful people. They are extremely courteous, obliging, and amiable, which made my stay in Hilo even better. The Bed and Breakfast facility itself is beautiful. It is very well built with spacious rooms and a terrific common area. The area outside the Bed and Breakfast is adorned with copious amounts of vegetation which adds a natural ambiance that enhances the atmosphere of the common area. The room I stayed in was immaculate, well dressed, and very cozy. The D&S is also centrally located. It is within walking distance of the many tourist districts in Hilo (it is right across the street from the Farmer's Market!) and everything else is a short drive away (like the University of Hawaii at Hilo, which is a few minutes drive away). Overall, I would highly recommend D&S Bed and Breakfast to anyone staying in Hilo, it is fantastic place managed by incredible Inkeepers!

There are so many great restaurants, & local attractions near by this B&B. It is truly a wonderful experience & the Staff are friendly, & helpful with whatever your needs may be. I would definitely recommend this establishment, you will enjoy every minute you spend there. Thanks to Doug & Sue for all their assistance, & attention. Love the fresh fruit breakfasts, as well.
