This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. Kealakekua Bay is 18 km away and Kealakekua Bay State Historical Park is 22 km from the homestay. The host greeted us upon our arrival late at night and happily shared about all the exceptional amenities. Beautiful shared space for a short stay with a beautiful ocean view and access to an inviting swimming pool. We did not make the time to enjoy the pool on this visit; next time. The space was well organized with bins to store food items and access to fridge space on a nice outdoor veranda overlooking plush trees and a spectacular view of the ocean. Thank you for a wonderful first stop on the island. Great first impression!

This place is amazing! We were there for 3 days and it definitely wasn’t long enough. The clothing optional black sand beach is incredible. Matt went above and beyond by finding two people to do a couples massage for us! The hot tub was the perfect way to relax every evening but the outdoor shower was my favorite place. Do something good for yourself and go stay here a couple days! 💜

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.

The property is around 28 km from Kealakekua Bay, 33 km from Kealakekua Bay State Historical Park and 42 km from Pu'uhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park. This 3-star bed and breakfast offers private entrance. We had the pleasure of meeting Ricky and his family. Ricky and Irina are born hosts, with the right touch of humor. Breakfast was a real treat every day. Ricky is a very good chef. We were also able to benefit from the best insider tips. This enabled us to explore Kona perfectly. Our time with Ricky was great. Should we return to Kona, we will definitely book the Hale Hualalai and maybe have a drum session with Ricky :)
