Hammocks and comfy lounge chairs are there for your outdoor comfort. Each room has a Sleep Number Bed, for your prefered comfort setting. Beautiful ocean and/or garden views from your room or lanai.

We hope you'll come and enjoy our private piece of paradise.

Laura and I have always had a passion for living in Hawaii and decided to make the move in 2002. We landed in Hilo and never looked back. We found our perfect 9 acres on a hilltop property near Hilo. We sold our businesses and home in San Diego County and made the permanent move January 2007. We built Island Goode's in 2004 with the idea of a guest house/bed and breakfast, having private entry and private bath for all rooms. This is a very special place away from the rush of traffic and crowds. We enjoy meeting people from around the world and sharing our Aloha for the Island. We want you to be excited about you trip, and if you need ideas on things to do we are here to help. We are very knowledgeable about the Island and can help you save time and money, so just let us know. We are in our 15th year serving our guests. In that time we have won many awards for our top reviews. We have been listed as the #1 bed and breakfast on the East side of the Big Island, and the winner of "Awards 2018 winner for Top Alternative Accommodation" for all the Hawaiian Islands. We welcome you to come and enjoy our special piece of paradise.

We are located in a nice, friendly, and very safe area of the island. The Hamakua Coast is rich in history, going back to the sugar cane days. Hawaii botanical Gardens is located on the Scenic Drive about 1 mile away. We live on a 9 acre property and are noted for our privacy and quiet location, yet we are 5 minutes away from "Old Hilo Town" and about 14 minutes from the Hilo International Airport (ITO).
