His warm hospitality was evident from the moment we arrived. He showed us the site of the 2018 eruption just blocks away. It was moving and informative to hear about the impact of it in the lives of the people living there. He kindly shared some avocados from his own tree, which we enjoyed as a delicious treat during our stay. It's the little touches like these that made our experience all the more special. Overall, we had an great and relaxing time in this Hawaiian oasis. The combination of the tranquil surroundings, the inspiring Balinese style, and the thoughtful amenities provided a rest from the all the exploration and activities in Hawaii.

Lovely setting, comfortable living areas, full kitchen. Close to beach. Off the beaten track of that's what your looking for

The vibe you find at Open Gate Hostel is hard to explain and find somewhere else. Staying here was one of the best decisions I have made throughout my two weeks in Hawaii. Staff is truly super (helpful, friendly, welcoming, helpful) and the people you meet there are just amazing. My private room was large, comfortable, and clean. Bathrooms and kitchen were very clean, too. Location is incredible.

Lovely cottages and the place it self. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Star glazing was an amazing experience. Enjoyed lovely sunrise every morning. Loved the idea of guest writing their experience in the cottage diary.

The unit is very spacious, and has an outdoor space to sit that is covered. The kitchen is very well equipped with new appliances and very nice dishes. Tap water is drinkable. Lots of information about the area is available. Free range chickens in the yard.

I liked the ease with the booking and finding the place and it was easy to follow the instructions to get in. It was close the things we were doing and the beds we comfortable so we slept well. I loved looking at all the diversity on the property esp the clumping bamboo!
