The open air shower/ bathroom were also kept very clean, a great experience. The owners and staff were very helpful and friendly. Many types of fresh fruits and coconuts growing on there property, yum. Also yoga every morning and a beautiful tropical woods meditation building to go inward. We enjoyed our stay here very much. ##### joe pet ### 2/10 Terrible #### Joseph D. Jul 18, 2024 Zero communication. They ask you to call them if you are going to be late checking in. I did but one number no one answered and the other went directly to voicemail. Gave up after eight hours after receiving no call back or acknowledgment of any kind. Forfeited full price and ended up cancelling since I could not confirm someone would be there after 9 p.m. to let us in. ##### Joseph D.

The property is located in a relatively remote area about 30 minutes south of Pahoa. Beautiful setting in the middle of a forest not too far from the beach. Isaac Hale Park is within walking distance and although the beach isn’t very safe for swimming there is a pond there that you can swim in. The accommodations are primitive and like camping but Mango Cabin was very spacious and the beds were VERY comfy. It is off-grid but there is electricity to the cabins. The cabins are screened and ours had a ceiling fan that kept us cool at night. There are community bathrooms and a kitchen but we never had any issues and I get up multiple times in the night.i would highly recommend, at a minimum, to eat breakfast at the community kitchen before heading out for the day. Very healthy with most ingredients grown on-site. We had a great time and staff (and other vacationers) are very friendly and helpful. Great place to disconnect and discover what “Island Time” really is. Highly recommend! ##### Patricia Stayed 9 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jenny Dec 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A great escape, off the grid hidden gem ##### Jenny Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Lance Oct 6, 2024 We were arriving at 8:45 which according to their rules was not an issue and they would not even let us check in so we had to sleep in our car with two young children! ##### Lance Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William Jul 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities ##### William Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 7, 2019 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Aug 24, 2019 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service, amenities I loved the night time action hearing all the wildlife it was amazing. Having the bathroom outside was awkward but was trying new things and the second night i wanted a hot shower and it was nothing but cold water...my husband and I are plumbers and we take a look at the water heater and it wasnt staying lit...so we didnt even get to have a shower after sweating all day and going to the beach...pretty place but they need to take the money from the extra days i didnt stay there and possibly fix there amenities. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 24, 2019 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 19, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I LOVED the three walled bathroom, bathing in rain water, my cabin, and the quiet time!! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yamila May 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Un lugar para conectarse con la naturaleza El lugar es increíble. si buscas lujo, no es para vos.

This is not luxury accommodations for the body but it makes up for that in the friendly people, the simple and comfortable sleeping space, the cleanliness albeit in the jungle near lava flow, and as it recovers. We were pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the entire experience from our morning walks, to excellent meals, and interacting with staff. ##### Anderson Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### DeeElle Apr 7, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very Nice People.

It was a great place with a welcoming staff. Even my teenagers loved this experience. If to stay, make sure you are there on a Wednesday so you can go to uncle Roberts farmers market. Wifi was also better than we have at home. ##### Vicki Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jaime-blue Apr 28, 2018 Disliked: Staff & service The person who checked us in blatantly gave us the wrong room. We paid for their premium room with a private lanai and outdoor ocean view bedroom and shower clearly marked on the reservation to a cottage with a bunk bed and a worse view. ##### Jaime-blue ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Mar 30, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### False Advertisement There are no locks on any of the doors, and our lanai door was broken so it wouldn't close all the way letting a lot of insects in. (I had to throw away a pair of underwear that was being ravaged by ants) Whenever I asked "volunteers" about different aspects of the camp they made me feel like I was inconveniencing them. The outhouse is scary at night, and while I admire their dedication to water conservation I wish the "yellow let it mellow" situation had been advertised to me beforehand. The Wifi was really hard to connect to and when I did, it was extremely slow. Also I can see a sliver of the ocean from my apartment in Kaimuki. I don't call it an "ocean view." Kirpal Meditation Center really shouldn't either. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 23, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Remote, peaceful Accomodations off beaten path Clean, comfortable, pleasant stay. A remote, peaceful area. A little Spartan in some aspects. ##### Verified traveller ### 4/10 Poor #### S Feb 12, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### This is actually a commune The person that showed us to our room was very friendly but she said this was more of a place of healing and comfort than a hotel. She welcomed us to a vegan supper and breakfast and their yoga classes if we wanted to attend, which we didn’t. She said when it’s in season guests can help themselves to fruit off the trees, as much as they care to eat. The acreage is beautiful as it’s full of trees and wildlife and is a short drive to the beach. We could barely see the ocean from our Oceanview room (my guess it that it’s close to a mile away). The nearest bathroom was essentially an outhouse about 100 yards away and their septic system doesn’t accept toilet paper so, a health hazard in my opinion, you had to put the toilet paper in a garbage next to the toilet and wash your hands with cold water. The room had numerous holes in each of the arcs of the tin roof and large gaps under the door so there were lizards crawling around. She told me the top sheet was to always stay on the bedding to shield the bedding and towels from lizard poop. We skipped our shower the next morning as it was outside coming off the side of another building where you would either have to shower naked or in our bathing suits. The heat to the shower was propane so she said we would need to come get them in the middle of the shower if it started running cold. We recieved a call from them within a week after we left saying they had a job opportunity for us, which we never returned. ##### S Stayed 1 night in Feb 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Paniolo Greens At Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Paniolo-Greens-At-Waikoloa.h599417.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Bali Hai Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Princeville-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Bali-Hai-Villas.h1744108.Hotel-Information) > > [Waimea Plantation Cottages, a Coast Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Waimea-Hotels-Waimea-Plantation-Cottages.h52880.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Kauaʻi Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Kauai-Beach-Resort-Spa.h583022.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Ocean Tower Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Ocean-Tower-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h28763131.Hotel-Information) > > [Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Waikoloa-Beach-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h22600.Hotel-Information) > > [Sugar Beach Resort - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Sugar-Beach-Resort-Maui-Condo-Home.h101695.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Lanai](https://www.expedia.ca/Lanai-City-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Lanai.h2980.Hotel-Information) > > [Mauna Kea Beach Hotel, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Mauna-Kea-Beach-Hotel.h34873.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay, HI](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Kauai-Wailua-Bay.h25719.Hotel-Information) > > [Hana-Maui Resort, a Destination by Hyatt Residence](https://www.expedia.ca/Hana-Hotels-Hana-Maui-Resort.h933.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Hapuna Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-The-Westin-Hapuna-Beach-Resort.h34872.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Royal-Sonesta-Kauai-Resort-Lihue.h8373.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kahului-Hotels-Maui-Beach-Hotel.h18554.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Castle Kama'ole Sands](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Castle-Kamaole-Sands.h21083.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairway Villas Waikoloa by OUTRIGGER](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Fairway-Villas-Waikoloa-By-OUTRIGGER.h914142.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Beach Vacation Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Beach-Vacation-Club.h2457.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Kaua'i Beach Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Marriotts-Kauai-Beach-Club.h1767377.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Kamaole - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Kamaole-Maui-Condo-Home.h101693.Hotel-Information) > > [Lahaina Shores](https://www.expedia.ca/Lahaina-Hotels-Lahaina-Shores-Beach-Resort.h84901.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Maui Bay Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Bay-Villas-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h3001.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston Maui Hill](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Aston-Maui-Hill.h24554.Hotel-Information) > > [Mauna Lani, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Mauna-Lani.h426160.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Oahu North Shore](https://www.expedia.ca/Laie-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Oahu-North-Shore.h9727677.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Coast Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Coast-Hotel.h28645.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston at the Maui Banyan](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Aston-At-The-Maui-Banyan.h22568.Hotel-Information) > > [Hanalei Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Princeville-Hotels-Hanalei-Bay-Resort.h460385.Hotel-Information)
