The best dog-friendly camping in Hawaii

·

The Hawaiian islands are a tropical paradise of beaches, mountains, jungles, and volcanoes, and a popular destination for many travelers, pet owners included. Pets can enter Hawaii, assuming certain conditions like rabies vaccinations have been met, with a five-day quarantine period. Public dog-friendly Hawaii camping is very limited, but options include pet-friendly campgrounds at Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island, Haleakalā National Park, some county parks on Maui, Ahupua'a ‘O Kahana State Park on Oahu, and Koke'e State Park on Kauai. For more options, look to private campgrounds with tent sites, campervan sites, or cabins near Hilo, Kahului, Kaunakakai, and the North Shore of Oahu, where you can stay with your dog near the beach, in the rainforest, and near volcanoes. Always check before bringing your dog along for exploring, as leashed dogs are allowed on some beaches, parks, and trails, but not all.

1 site · Lodging · Hawaiian Ocean View, HI
Enjoy the country life in Kau on the Big Island and the lovely red Lehua flowers blooming. We live on 19 acres on Road to the Sea, which has a remote green sand beach at the end of the road (4 miles down from us). We call our slice of paradise, Honua Laa (a sacred place). Straight down to the coast is a beautiful black and green sand beach and a huge tide pool. Rent a four-wheel-drive to get there, but you don’t need 4WD to get to our place, but you do need to rent an SUV or truck with high clearance. No sedans. Go slow the road is rough and bumpy in places.. Off the grid. Rustic, but fun. If you are a Eco tourist or seeking adventure, you will love our spot! The silence is golden and the stars are amazing. Don't expect a hotel...this is upcountry glamorous camping. It's one-of-a-kind! Most of the parcels are 20 acre parcels around… But a few smaller parcels across the road. We have nice neighbors who keep an eye on things. The nearest grocery store is about 3 miles away. The Hele-On Bus is just 1.2 miles up the road. If you want to drive to the green sand beach at the end of our road, rent a 4 wheel drive. If you are athletic, you can walk, but it is 4 miles down and 4 miles back. I recommend going early in the morning and take water. Hot water shower is propane. Bring ice for your ice chest. Bring drinking water. There is a gas grill and propane single burner. Bathroom has manual flush toilet,. This is off the grid solar and there can be days without sun, or other glitches. You can charge your phone and have a lamp in your cabin. No wifi. I use ATandT and I understand that Verizon and T-Mobile work here also. The panoramic ocean view is spectacular! Very peaceful and relaxing! Our glamping cabins are in the front 3 acres. The back 17 acres is an old Ohia forest with 500 year old trees and lots of birds. You might even see a wild goat or a wild pig. There are small caves and gorgeous rock formations. It backs up to Manuka Forest Reserve.

Welcome to Hilinai, a charming penthouse-style hideaway perched above a lush garden in Kaneohe. This peaceful retreat features its own private entrance through an automatic gate, leading to a covered carport and then up an exterior stairway to a spacious deck with 360-degree views. On the deck, you’ll find a chaise lounge and chairs—perfect for sipping morning coffee or watching the sunset. Inside, the space is cozy and thoughtfully designed. There’s a kitchenette with a microwave, sink, and cupboard space, and kitchen supplies are available on request. The main sleeping area has a comfortable king bed, and there’s room for two additional guests on futons tucked into a desk area — meaning the space can sleep up to four. A highlight of the property is the tree house in the yard, adding a playful and whimsical touch to the setting. The yard is surrounded by planters and greenery, giving the whole place a tranquil, garden‑hideaway feel. While this is a relaxing escape, note that campfires are not permitted on the property. Hilinai is the kind of place where you can disconnect and unwind under open skies, surrounded by nature, all while being close enough to explore the beauty of Oahu.
