We made a last minute decision to get a hotel closer to the Kona side for the night and found this little gem listed in the 'Big Island Revealed' guidebook. The person answering the phone was not the friendliest, but she did set us up with the IRIS room. When we arrived; it was after office hours and the receipt... More

I got in very late, so did not have much time to enjoy this place. The Inn used to be the home of the Parker Ranch manager and has lots of "character". It was a little hard and treacherous trying to find my room (separate building) in the dark, so I would recommend arriving here during daylight hours. My room... More

What a unique, wonderful experience! This is a former ranch home set up as as a boutique hotel. The rooms are fabulous and luxurious--very relaxing and romantic. You really have to see it to believe it. Huge tube and shower room. Bed was very comfortable. It is a peaceful, quiet, historic retreat to relax and unwind, yet within a reasonable... More

Meeting the Innkeeper, Mary Ellen, was just wonderful. She's very engaging and knowledgable of the local area and she helped us have a wonderful time. Mary Ellen cheerfully helped us with all our needs. We found the Jacaranda Inn magical. It is the perfect spot to get away from the crowds and to enjoy the beautiful scenary in Waimea and... More

We highly recommend this lovely spot for a quiet get-a-way from the big resorts. Mary Ellen is very kind and professional, and was also able to recommend quality restaurants in the near by areas. While the grounds are a bit overgrown, the building and accomidations were 5 stars. Our room was clean and was furnished for royality, and the bathroom... More

We were driving around Big Island and stayed at many places but Jacaranda Inn was by far the best stay. We arrived too early and were searching for somebody to accommodate us - there was no problem to get the room even 3 hours before official check-in time. The room was clean, very rustic, with old-fashioned but very nice furniture,... More

I have stayed at the Jacaranda Inn many times during the last three years. Always a special place for me because of the quiet, classy, distinctly upscale bedrooms which used to house the paniolos of the Parker Ranch. No roughing it necessary for this tired cowgirl. No other housing on the Big Island has beautiful Kohler jacuzzi tubs or well... More

Beautifully spacious rooms. Very comfortable and well furbished. Unfortunately it was only for 1 night but, we tried to make it last as long as possible. We rented 7 rooms there. It was so beautiful we ended up going to every room and taking pictures there. The bathrooms are HUGE! Most of ours had a Jaccuzzi tub and spacious shower.... More
