Discovery Harbour Hotels, Naalehu

"First of the place is gorgeous. Love how Ruth put little notes all around to give directions. Amazing. Next time i visit will definitely come back to stay here. 10/10 Very quiet and clean. Highly recommend "

"The stay was amazing, I really enjoyed hanging out in the garden with a cocktail. I live in downtown honolulu and this trip was a work trip it felt like a vacation. "

"Nice budget friendly part of the world in South part of the big Island. Very neat and tidy accommodation. Good bed. Quiet place. Access to punaluhulu black sand beach for an easy walk to see the turtles. Staff friendly. It is dated but def neat and tidy and we could have stayed an extra couple of nights. Worth the stop. "

"The place was gorgeous and peaceful and the hosts were wonderful. I’d absolutely stay again. "

"This spot was awesome! The neighborhood didn’t have a great reputation with the locals but we honestly had no problems at all staying on this part of the island. The hosts were wonderful and made sure we had everything we needed and even offered lots of really great recommendations for things to do while we were there. There isn’t a lot in the way of shops nearby, but they do have the essentials– a quick mart, gas, and even a pizza place. Very quiet and the stars at night are unmatched. The yurt has a dome top in the middle so you get a little glimpse out into the sky when you’re in bed. Definitely the best spot to do some glamping, would 100% recommend if you’re looking for a quiet place. Only downsides were that the yurt is, you know, a yurt so it’s not soundproof. You can definitely hear every noise in the area and you will be heard… my husband could hear the sound from my phone (on low volume) when he would be walking outside. It’s also about 1.5 hours drive away from the two big cities so keep that in mind with your trip planning."

"Big Island Yurt Adventure was absolutely amazing!!Johns property has all sorts of local fruits and vegetables as well as a few animals to spend some time with, he even brought us up a pitcher of juice he made from fruits on his property.He had all the creature comforts all the way down to designer samples of cologne in the bathroom cabinets.This place was lacking not one single thing needed. At its elevation It was a cool 68ish in the mornings and just warm enough to remind you you were in Hawaii in the afternoon. And to top it off, One of my daughters left a little purse and a few things there and he had it in the freaking mail before we even made it back home. 10 out of 10And we will be back again"

"Perfect home away from home!"

"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, then came back to Pahala for coffee at the Ka'u Coffee Mill. "

"Having never stayed in a Yurt of grid i was Amazed at how nice it was. I followed the rule of laundry during the day and had no issues. I titled this country because of the chickens and dogs, if you want a quite nights rest this isn't for you. If you are used to dogs barking and roasters crowingfrom 3am on then you'll be fine. I actually Loved it there!!PS, pool had funky ladder to get in and didn't seem worth the risk But that's what the beach is for.!!Again i Loved it and would Highly recommend it to people like me that line their space"
