Waimanalo Farmstay

5 sites · Lodging, RVs5 acres · Kailua, HI

This is a breathtaking space that our family has poured many decades and multiple generations into. We are surrounded by jungle, with a freshwater stream running through the entire property and unobstructed mountain views. You are welcome to explore the grounds and enjoy the land. Chickens roam freely, with the occasional pig sightings in the evening. We do have a fair bit of bugs and geckos. If you’re especially sensitive to mosquitos, this might not be the place for you! Waimanalo is a small agricultural town filled with nurseries, horse stables, and a high concentration of Hawaiian homes. It remains mostly undeveloped and authentic, and we aim to keep it that way. While nestled against the mountains, we're just a five minute drive from the beach. We are fifteen minutes from Kailua town, where you'll find several grocery stores, shops, and restaurants. There are so many great beach and land activities nearby, and I'm happy to lead you in the direction of whatever you might be interested in! We are very protective of this land and town, but would love to share the space with respectful travelers looking for an authentic experience. While we are very hospitable, we are not in the business of hospitality. This is a working farm. I am happy to accommodate travelers, but I am not here at your beck and call. If that is the experience you are seeking, I think you would be happier elsewhere. We appreciate all of your bookings, and profits go directly back into farm infrastructure and new fruit trees. Thank you for looking!

Luana Farm

3 sites · RVs, Tents15 acres · Captain Cook, HI

As all the land here is born of lava, many moons ago this land began to host plants and critters. Long after, it was sculpted and a number of families and farmers have contributed to what we have today. An abundance of fruit and vegetables within sight of the ocean. Peaceful breezes and warming sun make for unparalleled tranquility. Today the land still gives back to its visitors. Come recharge. As this is agricultural lands, there are many critters. Dogs, chickens, pheasants, peacock, mongoose, and many birds. Tge invasive coqui frog is annoying to some and calming to others. The micro climate here swings from warm and dry to wet quickly. Best to always prepare for rain. There is snorkeling, beaches, local food, Cafe, BBQ, poke, fish-n-chips, grocery, Sunday farmers market and hiking nearby. It is peaceful here, but also an active farming community. As an organic farm, we put alot of effort into soil building and as such, there are soft places that will be damaged by the weight of a vehicle. Staying on the driveway is best. We will guide you to where you need to go. Our road is paved, but bumpy. Any vehicle will make it without damage if driven slowly. 1 to 4mph tops. *Be sure to avoid the camper rental companies that restrict certain roads. Aloha and have a great day.

Dog-friendly camping in Hawaii guide

Overview

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.
