I came here for six nights after a week of working in Honolulu. I agonised about whether to stay in town our further up the coast. In the event I'm very glad I stayed in town - Doug and Sue's is off the road in a gated compound and you can't hear the traffic (what little there is anyway in... More

Aloha, This gentleman was so much fun to host. He had a great sense of humor and really took advantage of all the things this side of the Big Island has to offer. Our favorite memory of him was his description of the people at a local rent-a-car company videoing the car he rented to take up to the top... More

Aloha, This was a lovely couple who stayed with us. I enjoyed talking with them in the common area and giving sightseeing advice. I was happy to accommodate them in any way that I could. I am very happy they enjoyed our breakfast selection and enjoyed their overall stay! Mahalo, Jami and Tim Vezina (The new owners of D&S B&B) More

This was our first trip to the Big Island, and we started with 3 nights in Hilo at D&S B&B, where we celebrated our anniversary. The room was excellent, just as described, and owner Doug was waiting for us when we arrived. Parking was convenient, right in front of the property. We thought the sounds of the coqui frogs was...

"Excellent, Again!" We stayed with Doug and Sue again during this year's 50th Annual Merry Monarch Hula competition. This time we stayed eight nights. They did what they do best, being friendly, very competent host/hostess! Accommodations were ready and clean when we arrived. In-room coffee maker and small refrigerator was exactly what we needed. Easy street parking was available in... More

I have lived on the Kona side of the Big Island for 45 years and always look forward to some personal time in Hilo. Recently I booked the Economy Room for a three day respite at the D & S B &B.
