Experience the Aloha Spirit at a Big Island B&B

Big Island Guide Travel Guide

Aside from the two main features inherent in the term “bed and breakfast,” there’s something special and personable about staying with knowledgeable locals in a smaller setting during your vacation. In Hawaii, there’s an intangible spirit that flows through every interaction like a mutually understood, unspoken agreement of friendship. In Hawaii, we call it the aloha spirit. This spirit of connectedness carries a special significance for those who reside here. For some, it’s treating others with respect and kindness at all times. For others, it’s being generous and forthcoming with yourself and others.

While the larger hotels and resorts certainly try and emulate that spirit, you may not get the same level of aloha there as you would staying at a smaller property. People here genuinely go out of their way to help one another and offer advice when necessary – great attributes for a b&b host, but simply inherent in the Hawaiian lifestyle. Thatʻs why there’s nothing like a stay at a Hawaiian b&b. Check out our list of favorites below.
