Set in Kailua-Kona, 2 km from Magic Sands Beach, The Bamboo House has a garden, parking on-site and rooms with free WiFi access. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a terrace. Outdoor seating allows guests to enjoy the fresh air. Very chill atmosphere, lots of little touches that made the stay very nice. My wife loved having a yoga mat available in the morning. Easy to reach from the airport. Loved the little private balcony with the hammock.

Set just 11 km from Kaloko-Honokohau National Historic Park, The Koi House with Pool offers accommodation in Kailua-Kona with access to an outdoor swimming pool, a shared lounge, as well as a shared kitchen. 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!

Kehena Mauka Nui Club LGBTQIA+ Clothing Optional features a hot tub and free private parking, and is within 400 metres of Kehena Black Sand Beach and 21 km of Lava Tree State Park. The property has garden views and is 24 km from Lava Tree State Monument and 45 km from Pana'Ewa Rainforest Zoo. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and full-day security for guests. I don't know where to start... the house in the middle of the jungle... the shower/hottube in the middle of the jungle... the open-minded people (incl. the area arround)... the possibility to feel free and nude where-/whenever you want... i think there's a maximum of 10 guests if it's fully booked, so you can get in touch with everybody if you like.... check-in was super easy and uncomplicated... Ashton and his partner are super nice hosts and care a lot that you feel comfortable, there are really great.... the wifi was top, it was very clean at all and the kitchen is well equiped... i'll definitly come back... highly recommended for mind-opend (naturalist) people...

Situated in Volcano in the Hawaii Island region, Volcano Eco Cabin & Eco Lodge features accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking.

The lodge provides guests with a terrace, garden views, a seating area, satellite flat-screen TV, a fully equipped kitchen with a fridge and a stovetop, and a private bathroom with shower and free toiletries. Some units have a balcony and/or a patio with mountain views. We absolutely loved our stay in the Eco Cabin! It’s completely off grid and still super cute, cozy, and comfortable with everything we needed. This was the perfect spot to stay while exploring Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. I highly recommend staying here!
