Hotel Independent di Captain Cook

"Nice clean room, helpful staff."

"I did not realise that we were staying in a plantation village, with multiple accommodation. I had made a request for two beds and, as it was a slow time of year, we got two bedrooms. Pahala is a very cute town (and currently the only one with a grocery store as the one in Naalehu was no longer as at 28 Jan 25). The people were also really friendly. The only thing to consider is the roosters. If you want to sleep in - close the windows. We didn't, as the black sand beach was all ours at sunrise,...

"A great place to stay - very calm and serene ambiance with beautiful views. Very good and healthy breakfast. Very hospitable and helpful staff who are very friendly. I will definitely stay there again. Thanks to all for a great experience!"

"Owner was very accommodating. Room was beautifully appointed. We had a peaceful lanai to have coffee and snacks. We were surprised to find a microwave, small refrigerator, coffee maker and toaster for use during our stay. Walking distance to a snorkeling beach. "

"Wish we stayed more than 1 night! Breakfast was amazing the view of the ocean from our room was gorgeous and all the hosts were super responsive."

" Clean and new place. The bed was comfy, but the best was the healthy breakfast! I appreciated the effort Linda did to provide a good meal start to the day. It was quiet (I had no problem with the frogs and one distant rooster.) "

"When I booked our stay at Gingerhill, I had no idea what to expect outside of an experience that would be unlike the typical room and board my partner and I are accustomed to.

A charming, intimate, and surprisingly...

"These warm, welcoming and courteous hosts provided us a sense of home away from home. Our space was clean and comfortable and communication with the hosts was very helpful to enhance our stay. The breakfast items provided included fresh fruit, fresh macadamia nuts and fresh baked goods daily. We hope you stay here and enjoy it as much as we did, the hot tub is a MUST after a long day of exploring Hawaii’s big island. We’d love to come back! "
