The Orchid Tree Bed & Breakfast is located just minutes from downtown Hilo, on the old scenic route, at Alae Point. We offer a unique lodging experience. You will enjoy the privacy of a six hundred square foot suite with private entrance and private access to our large covered lanai, swimming pool and Jacuzzi.

Walk across the street to Honolii Beach where surfers and swimmers enjoy the gentle rollers under the watchful eye of a county lifeguard. Or explore the river, where waterfalls plunge into clear swimming holes. Maybe you're feeling lazy...why not just sit on the lanai with a cup of Kona coffee and watch the whales play in the blue Pacific. It's up to you, at the Orchid Tree you are in the perfect location for a real Hawaiian experience.

After a lovely breakfast of fresh local fruit and pastries, juice and coffee, you may want to head out for a day of East Hawaiian adventure. Head north to Waipio Valley (50 minutes) or Akaka Falls (15 minutes). Turn south and head for Volcanos National Park (45 minutes) or out to Lower Puna and the famous Red Road where the coast is graced with hot ponds and fields of coral (40 minutes). No matter which way you turn, getting there is half the fun as you travel through the breathtaking beauty of east Hawaii. This area is rich in Hawaiian history and geology. We can show you the way to a memorable vacation, in an area that most tourists will never see
