Independent Pahala hotels

"A really good property with excellent location. Best if you plan to visit the volcano national park at night."

"front desk lady was rude"

"The excellent quality of this stay did not change since my last stay 23 year’s ago."

"Sue the property owner was so nice very helpful. She offered to make pancakes and sausage for breakfast which is our favorite. Not sure what else is on the menu, but we saw her cooking up some other items as well. It came with fresh local fruits and great coffee. We stayed in the Pele room which came with a separate kitchenette. I didn’t see a cooktop, but it had a nice size fridge, microwave, and small table and two chairs. We didn’t do any cooking but enjoyed the fridge, privacy, and the great coffee and coffee maker. The room was very nice and clean - very nicely decorated. 2 bathrooms and separate beds was a plus. Showers were not large but worked great for us (I am bit large and fit just fine). The room also has access to a decent sized covered deck. The deck is used by the two dogs; Coconut and Bear. We didn’t see them much but they were awesome and we were glad when we did. Grounds are great and location is very close to Volcano National Park. "

"Quite and secluded but mind your head on low beams and watch your step on different levels in rooms"

"Absolutely adorable! They had fruit oatmeal, coffee, and tea and bread with butter waiting for you so you had a great breakfast. We absolutely love the papaya and banana combo that was suggested. Bed set up was great as you felt privacy, but could hear the birds. And owners were very attentive. Would definitely recommend this place and will be coming back."

"good"

"The location with the views of the ocean are amazing along with the pool and hot tub. You have a 1 hour window to check in and if you miss it you have to be there at 8am the next morning. If you want an early start you need to wait until 8."

"Parking was easy, but my room was a bit dirty upon arrival with spider webs and literal dust on things. There was a dehumidifier but it was empty and I couldn't figure out how to fix it. They were supposed to come pick up my registration so I thought they'd fix the humidifier then (80% humidity in the room) but no one ever came. The free amenities they have in the guest supply is just one very bad shampoo and a little bar soap (which was okay). The kitchen is very minimal and has nothing to label your items with. I never came across another guest in the property, but I know they were there because doors would open/closer. Very great location, but there are many many options in this town where you may get better amenities with an actual host that would prepare and care for your room"
