My wife and I just got back from our vacation...and it was awesome! We stayed at the Hilo Tropical Gardens for most of our trip (we didn't want to leave). It's a great hostel that is set in a beautiful garden setting, and the staff was so friendly and helpful. The manager Trish was so accomadating and she made our stay even more special, always having a smile on her face and very cheery. There is a Ice cream store in front, which is to die for...sooo good. We felt so relaxed and at home we really didn't want to come home. The rest of the staff was just as friendly and helpful as Trish. There are lots of great beaches and dive spots close to the hostel. Wow...I can not say enough about this place, so you'll have to see it for yourselves. We WILL be back the next time we are on the Big Island. Thanks again Hilo Tropicals gardens for making our vacay one to remember always. more

Me and my boyfriend stayed here for 3 weeks. We stayed a night in the dorms and then camped the rest of the time. If you pay in advance for a week it's only $10 a night to camp and the whole area is fenced off so its very safe. The staff there were great, really amazing people and the gardens we're beautiful....

That's where the good comments end. After staying there three weeks I had a pair of underwear and my baithing suit bottoms stolen right from my luggage. They have lockers there but you wouldn't think to lock up your panties! We're pretty positive it was a guy who has been living there for 3 months, Earl. We never caught him, however any girl that walked into the hostel (including myself) was subject to his inappropraite comments. I told the manager, Trish and she did absolutely nothing....but she told me to keep it quiet and not to tell anyone....obviously so people wouldn't know there is a pervert staying there. Among other things our food was constantly stolen out...
