I had an amazing time at Open Gate Hostel. This place and its surroundings were exactly what I was looking for - so peaceful, with no light or noise pollution. It’s the perfect remote spot to unwind, relax, and recharge yourself.
The host, Marissa, is incredibly kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable. She gave me so many great recommendations for local events and places to explore...

We really enjoyed our time at this hostel. The people were really friendly and helped us out with everything. It’s rare to meet such nice people!!! The free breakfast was great and we enjoyed the nice atmosphere and talks:) it’s really calm and the lava ground looks stunning. Of course it’s not a 5star hotel but we didn’t expect that. We came for the Hawaiian experience and we weren’t disappointed.
