GRAND NANILOA HOTEL HILO

Home Of Hula, Aloha Experience And Your Hawaiian Adventures

Embrace Hawaiian culture. Get lost in the melody. Or try to find it. After all, with a name like Naniloa, translated to mean very beautiful, the hardest part is figuring out what to see — or do — first.

Enjoy an evening of song and hula telling the Moolelo (stories) of Hilo; tickets include Hawaiian craft activities, pre-dinner drinks (Mai Tai, Beer, Wine, and soft drinks), buffet dinner, and an exciting Polynesian Show.

Adventure Awaits

Zip through lush landscapes and gorgeous tropical river gorges. Snorkel side-by-side with sea turtles. Hike up captivating waterfalls and trek along the Kilauea Iki Trail. You can count on KapohoKine Adventures for the best outdoors experience, located right in the lobby of the hotel to book a tour.

Volcano Activity & Lava Flow

As a guest here, you are a short drive from the summits of two of the world's most active volcanoes. Visit Mauna Loa and Kīlauea to get an up-close-and-personal look at these natural wonders.
