My family had the most amazing time. Matt was an incredible host! From all the amenities to opening coconuts for my eager daughter. He showed us all around the property and was very knowledgeable. We will definitely be back and I will tell everyone I know to stay at the amazing house. Thank you for all the hospitality. We are home now and missing it so much

About the host
Hosted by Robynne
I’m originally from a small mountain town in Northern California, and I’ve always valued community, nature, and creating welcoming spaces. Hosting gives me the chance to share that same warmth and hospitality with travelers. I love helping guests feel at home while they enjoy the beauty and adventure Hawai‘i has to offer.
Why they chose this property
I chose Hawaiian Beaches in Pahoa because it offers a peaceful, local feel away from the big resort crowds. The neighborhood provides a true Hawaiian experience with ocean breezes, and easy access to scenic coastal drives. It’s also conveniently close to Pahoa town for dining and shopping, while still being near natural attractions like tide pools, lava fields, and black sand beaches. It felt like the perfect balance of relaxation, authenticity, and adventure.
What makes this property unique
Our home is truly one-of-a-kind — a vibrant, multi-colored house that reflects the spirit of Hawai‘i. It’s designed for gathering, with space to comfortably sleep up to 12 guests, making it perfect for families, friends, and group getaways. The unique colors give the property a fun, welcoming energy, while the large layout ensures everyone has room to relax together or find their own quiet corner. It’s not just a place to stay — it’s an experience that makes your trip memorable from the moment you arrive.
