A quaint hostel run by a Japanese gentleman and his family. It is in a great location, in a residential area, close to the local shop, restaurant and laundromat. Short drive to the Hawaii Volcano National Park and the Thurston Lava Tubes. The street is very narrow and not lit at night. Next door is the parking area in the... More

Synchronicity brought me here..and I was so blessed to stay in the hostel for one evening. It is a beautifully kept hostel with an amazing energy of the home as well as the land around it. Plus it comes with two adorable little girls who are wonderful greeters and playmates of the magical kind. Thank you so much for the... More

Stayed here one year ago with my boyfriend. The cost is what drew us to to Holo Holo as we were saving money on accomadations in some areas while splurging in others as we circumnavigated the Big Island. When we arrived a couple other single travelers where there but the larger dormitory room was vacant so they had us stay... More

Nice hostel run by endearing Japanese family. Cleaner than the usual hostels. The innkeeper's children (under 6 y.o.) were super-cute, however, the cat was kind of annoying. Beware: There are a few quirky rules, but these were easy to abide. More

I stayed here for nearly three weeks with a group of 15 students. As an older member of the group, I had a private single room, while the students had shared rooms (4-6 per room). My room was excellent, with a nice ensuite bath, attractive wood paneling, two nightstands, and a small table and chair. This was pretty deluxe compared... More

I really enjoyed my stay at the Holo Holo Inn. There weren't many guests the night my friend and I were there. We booked two beds in a dorm room, and there were two other women in our shared room. The shared bathrooms were really nice, and there was a nice quiet lounge room upstairs above the entry way that... More

My cousin and I booked two nights at the Holo Holo Inn in June 2011. Our main wish was to stay close to the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, and the Inn certainly WAS close (only a few minute drive). The Website described the Inn as a Hostel/Budget Inn, but we thought it was so much more than that. We arrived... More

Great hostel in great location, minutes away from Volcano National Park. They have free internet and full kitchen. There are different types of rooms to accommodate everyone (ex: dorms, private rooms with or without private bathroom). The host family is very nice and welcoming and their 2 little girls are super cute. More
