Hotels near Waipio, HI

Although the place may look slightly rundown, the convenience of its location and the friendlies of its owners lavishly compensate for what.

If you stay here, book the upper tent. That’s why I rate this place as a 10!

The perfect size for a couple of nights stay. Really well appointed and provisioned. Quiet location.

So comfortable and spacious a real home from home thank you

Don’t trust the photos — it’s at least ten times more beautiful in person! This studio is located at the back of the host’s home, surrounded by a lush garden oasis. When we arrived in the afternoon, the host warmly welcomed us. We chatted and discovered we both practice energy healing — I do Theta Healing, and she excitedly shared that she teaches yoga, meditation, and works at a nearby international school with many students from Taiwan, Japan, and Korea. She told us she keeps the energy of her home very clean and intentional — and we could feel it. The plants around her home grew noticeably better than the neighbors’, and we both slept incredibly deeply and peacefully during our stay. When she heard we were on our honeymoon, she surprised us with champagne, chocolates, and a handwritten card. It was such a heartfelt gesture that we’ll never forget. The kitchen was impressively well-stocked — every dish, pan, and utensil we could need, plus delicious Kona coffee. Even the ice water from the fridge somehow had a subtle coffee flavor — we’re still wondering how she did that!

Really lovely motel. Would stay her again for sure. We were lucky that we stayed on a Friday night, with the Waimea farmers markets on the next morning at the school next door. There are also great restaurants walking distance, including acclaimed FORC which is right next door. Waimea is a lovely town, really loved it there.
