Papaaloa hotel guide. Independent hotel in Papaaloa, Hawaii

"Mahana House was a lovely, well-appointed lodging. The room was very spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed the comfy robes, lanai for morning coffee and evening cocktails, and the yummy fruit we picked on the farm. The shared kitchen and laundry had everything we might have overlooked. We even enjoyed fresh homemade banana bread from the housekeeper, Val. We grabbed a cooler and beach towels for day trips. We were able to do laundry before leaving. The nearest restaurants were back in Hilo,...

"The three of us were very comfortable in suite 1 with the little twin window bed. The sound of the ocean drowned out the songs of the coqui frogs. It was a great location to see the sights on the Hilo side. The breakfast was amazing: fresh fruit, French toast or coconut pancakes, eggs to order, and juice. They have a little cabinet with first aid items and extra sunscreen.The hosts were caring and thoughtful. Would definitely recommend this place!!!"

"The property was very nice and extremely clean."

"Great experience."

"Staff was wonderful, charming little hotel. Banana bread, coffee and fruit for breakfast was great! Loved having a kitchen. Allowed us to use the towels even after our check out so we could go to the beach and drop them off on our way to the airport. "

"Absolutely incredible location. Beautiful waterfall, very private and quiet. Staff was friendly, breakfast was delicious. Very unique and beautiful place."

"Enjoyed our stay but did not like the lack of TV. Screencasting was the only option. Nearby roosters start crowing early am."

"Quiet, short drive to downtown, staff are very friendly and helpful. I will come back! Mahalo "

"Great spot for a visit to the rocky beach just a few minutes walk. That was a pleasant surprise. Also have accessible kitchen. Nice quaint little place. "

"It’s a utilitarian budget hotel without some pretty standard amenities like AC or in room WiFi, but for what it is it’s fantastic. Very close to some beautiful parks, and the bay views are great. "
