If you want an experience and not a hotel, this is a good place to consider. Don’t complain if you wanted a Marriott; it’s not the Marriott.
The hostess and host are kind and genuine.
The lodging is nestled in a neighborhood, but it feels almost like a jungle. The shower is outside and is reasonably private.
Don’t mind the geckos lingering nearby as you enjoy fresh fruit for breakfast.
If you like hotels with all the amenities, this might not be the place for you.
This is an amazing bed-and-breakfast!
The house is surrounded by tropical plants and wildlife.
All night you will be serenaded by frogs and birds.
Our room had an outdoor shower and bath that were private and secluded.
Every morning we had coffee and a wonderful fruit bowl.
We were also offered eggs and toast.
Our hosts, Raven And Mark, were very friendly and knowledgeable about the area.
They had great recommendations on local beaches, local restaurants, and good places to visit all over the big island.
I will definitely be staying here again!
What isn’t unique about this place? It’s an intimate b&b, we stayed in the larger room which has three full size beds with nets and a kitchenette. The bathtub and shower are outside - fenced from prying eyes but fun. The decor is Bohemian Eclectic and I spent quite a bit of time in the living room of the main house jamming with host Mark - he just got a stand up bass to go with the piano and ukes I remember from last time (did I mention we came back). Excellent breakfast on the deck looking at the ocean, geckos peeping at us. It’s not for people who absolutely need AC or who can’t handle the chorus of frogs doing their frog song at night. It’s way out there, geographically and figuratively. But we love it.
Raven is a sweet and phenomenal host, and the property is beautiful! Gorgeous views, private beach access to watch the sunrise. I loved the outdoor shower, and the beds were really comfy!
The Ma'ukele Lodge is a very unique place. The grounds and beach are gorgeous. The lava flow is right between the house and the ocean, and walking to the beach was an amazing and beautiful experience. The breakfast was great and so was sharing it with the geckos.
This is a B&B, Raven & Mark’s home (not a hotel). We loved the location in Pahoa which was impacted by the lava flow in May 2018. Raven makes the best breakfast to get your day started. Mark has all these great stories, and tells you where to visit and what trails to do at the Hawaii Volcano State Park. The backyard of their home is just breathtaking, and you’ll never see this anywhere else!! We stayed in the Hawaiian Suite which had 3 big beds, a microwave and a mini-refrigerator stocked with drinks, fruit and chocolates. There was an outdoor shower (wonderful to use) or tub, and a backyard to take in the island feel. We are in Kona now and it’s so touristy, crowded with people and cars. Wish we could be at Raven & Mark’s oasis.
