All units come with a balcony, a fully equipped kitchen with an oven and a microwave, and a private bathroom with shower. A toaster, a fridge and stovetop are also offered, as well as a coffee machine. At the homestay, the units have bed linen and towels. We chose this place for our first night on the Hawaiian Islands. It’s about a 20-30 minute drive from the airport. The popular restaurants are also within a 2-3 mile drive, so it’s a great location! The surrounding neighborhood is very quiet. The overall service and room were very thoughtful. The check-in process was simple and clear, with insect-repelling scents and sprays, a small nightlight in the bathroom, a guestbook by the door, and even face masks available! There’s also a steam iron and regular iron to choose from. We only realized after leaving that there was no TV, which fits perfectly with the bamboo and zen concept.

Located in Pahoa, 1.1 km from Kaimu Beach, Open Gate Hostel Hawaii provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. 18 km from Lava Tree State Park and 21 km from Lava Tree State Monument, the property features a bar and barbecue facilities. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property. I recently had the pleasure of staying at the hostel, and I must say that the experience was elevated to another level thanks to the incredible management by Marissa. From the moment I arrived, it was clear that the hostel was not only well-maintained but also run by someone with a genuine passion for hospitality. She greeted me with a warm welcome and provided a thorough tour of the facilities, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed. She took the time to answer all my questions with great patience and always offered helpful tips on local attractions, transportation, and even hidden gems in the area. It was evident that they genuinely cares about the guests' experience and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feels at home. The hostel itself is clean, safe, and has stargazing deck. It is also close to one of the most beautiful beach in big island.

This bed and breakfast offers free private parking, luggage storage space and free WiFi. Guests can access the bed and breakfast via private entrance. Perfectly located a short drive from the national park entrance. The hosts were lovely and gave us local tips (one of them is a ranger at the national park). The room was so carefully appointed and the breakfast was fantastic, with so much food and a great variety. The garden outside the room was lovely too.
