In the Aloha Spirit,
Tom & Dianne Brookman welcome you to VIP B&B, to their acre and a half
of Hawaiian heaven.Country peace and quiet is just over the
river on the Hamakua Coast. Conveniently located five minutes from
historic downtown
Hilo and only ten minutes from the airport, it is rural and a world away, after
crossing the "Singing bridge" to the Wainaku area. The B&B
is nestled into garden and greenery, a small rainforest, and no
other houses nearby.
Beautiful oval beveled glass and mahogany
double doors welcome you to this lovely three level island home appointed with
lace, lauhala* and Hawaiian Aloha fabrics. The main entry hall
separates the guestrooms and the common rooms. Covered decks off
every room and lots of windows provide for viewing a year round stream, garden
with lush vegetation and Hilo Bay.
Knowledgeable and friendly hosts are happy to share with you facts and points of
interest to help make your Big Island experience wonderful. Their
warmth and gracious hospitality is demonstrated in the attitude of "drop
right in -- take your shoes off -- sit a spell" -- as they impart island
culture and history to you. Dedicated to your comfort and care, they welcome you to play the
grand piano, use videos (DVDs), play CDs, peruse the library, watch TV and jacuzzi.
You're welcome to check your email, surf the net, or write a letter on the guest computer.
A sumptuous and bountiful breakfast of
fresh island fruits and juices, breads or muffins, entree, and of course, Kona
coffee and an assortment of teas, is served in the dining room with a view of
Hilo Bay or on the lanai with gentle breezes. A convenient nook houses a
self-serve coffee/tea station for refreshment at anytime of day or night.
