Top Big Island Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn Black Mountain

"Everything about our stay was just outstanding!! Definitely will stay here again in the future if ever back in the area."

The Inn at Shady Lawn

Comfort Inn Marion near Downtown & Blue Ridge PKWY

10/10 Excellent

"Great property,location was perfect. Staff was awesome, very clean room and the breakfast was delicious."

Black Mtn.Hideaway: Romantic Mtn.Views, Hot Tub, & Pet Friendly!

10/10 Excellent

"My hubby & I needed a respite & this cozy little cabin was the perfect solution for a two night stay. The views were incredible from most windows & the back deck was perfect for watching the sunset over the mountains. Trees were beginning to turn fall colors so it was extra breathtaking! We enjoyed all the amenities especially the hot tub! A quick drive to Black Mountain for shopping & dining although I think a vehicle with AWD OR 4WD would've helped making it up the rocky driveway. NOT a deal breaker though as we just took our time! Very peaceful & relaxing! We really appreciated how comfortable & private the place felt. Didn't want to leave so soon! It's clear the hosts cherish their home since it's very well maintained inside & out & full of cheery bear decor!"
