🌺 Wild Blue Waters – Secluded Oceanfront Paradise
Perched high atop lava cliffs, Wild Blue Waters is where Hawaii’s untamed beauty greets you at every turn. This is more than a campsite—it’s a private sanctuary wrapped in jungle greens and kissed by the endless blue of the Pacific.
Wake each morning to the songs of tropical birds echoing through palms, as warm trade winds carry the fragrance of wild blossoms and ripe fruit. Just beyond your tent, the ocean roars against black volcanic shores, while the sunrise paints the horizon in fiery reds and golds. Every moment here is alive with nature’s rhythm—untamed, vibrant, unforgettable.
Between adventures, indulge in comfort: pure mountain well water to refresh you, a spacious hot shower, pristine restrooms, a crystal-clear pool, and a jacuzzi beneath the stars. By day, explore; by night, soak, sip, and let the waves serenade you to sleep.
This is not just camping—it’s immersion. A rare blend of wilderness and ease. Wild Blue Waters is where your Hawaiian adventure begins.
Note: All water is supplied daily by our cool mountain-fed well, and the land is lovingly guarded by five friendly ranch dogs—loyal companions who quickly win your heart and keep the property safe and welcoming.

The Kikala Waterfall Lodge at the Mauna Kea Cloudforest Bioreserve is a lodge nested in a botanical garden and farm dedicated to the preservation of the world's plant biodiversity. Situated on the southeast facing flanks of Mauna Kea overlooking Hilo Bay and the Hamakua Coast, the bioreserve benefits of a unique climate where the lowland rainforest climate zone (Koeppen climate Zone Af) overlaps with the oceanic temperate mountain zone of Mauna Kea (Koeppen Climate Zone Cfb). The result is a cool and wet climate zone that supports many of the world's endangered palms and conifers.
The bioreserve features 14 acres of riverfront Cloud forest. The Kikala river runs through the middle of the bioreserve, so Kikala Waterfall Lodge guests on the bioreserve have private exclusive access to prime waterfalls and swimming holes. The Cloudforest bioreserve isn't just home to botanical wonders, Hawaiian native hawks and many other beautiful Hawaiian birds like to nest in the cloudforest.
The lodge community center features a Zendo that can support a contemplative yoga and meditation practice. The Bioreserve features gardens with a Japanese Zen influence to encourage a contemplative retreat experience.

Clean cabin, helpful and responsive hosts, very quiet atmosphere. No street noise at all, just birds and rain.
There are 2 dogs that can be noisy at times, and can steal your shoes if you leave them outside. Plenty of space inside to store them.
Shower wasn’t working when we arrived but was fixed by the second day.

1 night at Hamakua Guesthouse
It was a very peaceful stay, even though the property was fairly full it was quiet and minimal traffic. I really appreciated the detailed directions Matthew provided in the booking confirmation - follow them and it’s very clear. It took a few minutes to locate someone to check me in (since its not self check in, but there is no desk just a message board) but phone reception was better than many places in the island and they also provided a WiFi password on the back porch. I was a little disappointed that the hammocks are only hammock stands (i had a cabana in the past where the hammocks were able to be tied to the support posts diagonally across the room, but here the beam did not seem sturdy enough to bear weight). However, apart from that, it was a very solid, well-built, and cozy glamping style place. Perfect for its proximity to Akaka falls (go very early in the morning when they first open, that was very tranquil, forty five minutes later as I was leaving the falls were overrun.)

We spent a few nights in Chris and Esther’s cute little cabin and truly felt at home. The cabin has everything you need and is beautifully surrounded by nature. Small frogs sing you a lullaby at night, and ducks welcome you in the morning. Our kids especially loved the ducks and peacocks!
We had plenty of privacy, along with great support from Chris and Esther whenever we needed it. An additional advantage of staying here is that it’s an off-grid place, so even during storms, when the public electricity is down, you still have power.
The location is also great — very close to Volcanoes National Park, which made exploring the area easy and convenient.
We had a wonderful stay at Tropical Duck and an amazing experience with the hosts — we would love to come back one day.
