Independent Honokaa hotels

"We had a wonderful stay! The grounds are absolutely beautiful, we never had an issue finding chairs at the pool, loved snorkeling in the cove, and enjoyed seeing the sea turtles every morning while drinking our coffee. All of the staff members were friendly and helpful. The only downside is the food wasn’t as tasty as we hoped it’d be however, having the shuttle service came in handy so we could try other restaurants nearby. "

"Great top of the line resort."

"This property was beautiful, quiet and the staff is amazing. Its a little drive to Hilo but worth it. So much to see and do in the area. They also have a book in the room that is a wealth of information about the area. It is available to buy and we advise to get a copy. We highly recommend cottages to anyone traveling to the area. "

"We couldn't have asked for a more perfect home and location to celebrate our son's wedding. We owned a home and raised our kids in that neighborhood 15 years ago."

"What a slice of heaven. We loved walking around the property, listening to the nightlife sounds, having breakfast on the deck with the geckos and the view. The hot tub was an amazing treat after a day of exploring. The hosts and their caretaker were so welcoming and provided a lovely selection of fruits and fresh flowers. We loved this place."

"Kim’s Cottage and Jim’s welcome were both awesome, two of us stayed for three nights and it was exactly as described and expected. The private patio was wonderful and it made for easy living. We did have some unwelcome encounters with mosquitos, but that was expected due to the location of the property and the season. We normally stay in Hawi and the location was incredibly convenient for us to explore the northeastern side of the island. Once welcomed by Jim, where he gave us an overview of the cottage and the property, we were afforded incredible privacy throughout our stay. It was just perfect, exactly what we needed :)"

"We appreciate the cleanliness and attention to detail, friendly staff, short walk to shopping and restaurants, and opportunity to have fresh air in the room."

"FANTASTIC LOCATION, WONDERFUL BEACH AND A FRIENDLY STAFF"

"I like the location for the things I like to do. The climate is wonderful. Its quiet and clean, the lack of standard services offered by similar establishments is offset by the availability of services such as resturants, shops, groceries, gas stations, etc, all within walking distance. I also like the plantation motif. Great place- "
