It is in a perfect location. 3 bedrooms, gourmet kitchen, ocean view. We sipped our cocktails on the deck at night. This is in unspoiled Hawaii. The place to stay if you want to visit volcano park, lava flow viewing etc. waterfalls are a short drive. Very quiet. At night we would drive into Pahoa for dinner. Great restaurants. We will be back. Loved the owners.

It has two bedrooms and one bath, as well as, a sleeper sofa and an air mattress, that we found convenient for our large family. The kitchen was well appointed and had everything we needed to stay in and cook meals, as well as an outdoor barbecue. It is located on the eastern shores of the Big Island of Hawaii. In a nice quiet, rural neighborhood complete with chickens and roosters. Our favorite thing about the rental, is that it has a covered lanai, that allows for enjoying nature and the beautiful half acre in which it sits on. We found a place we love, and we believe you will too. So the next time you're on the big island of Hawaii, stay here! You'll be glad you did, just as we were...

I spent a week at Gay Hawaii B&B during Xmas holidays 2018. What a fantastic and wonderful…read moreexperience! The host is perfection, he is so knowledgeable about the island and the local sights and so helpful, sweet, friendly, and fun. The house is comfortable, clean, calm, and I met some other guests that have become forever friends. The area is amazing with the ocean so close you can walk and a black sand clothing optional beach a short drive away. Uncle Awa's bar is very close, also a little market there, and don't miss the Wed. nite food and arts festival. Also a short drive to Pahoa, a quaint sleepy town with wonderful hippie shops and great Thai food! Also a not too far ride to Volcano National Park, and also several waterfalls- very cool! We picked fresh passion-fruit and lemons in the tropical garden and made passion-fruit lemonade. The kitchen is fully stocked and we made fabulous meals. All in all it was the perfect vacation. I will definitely be returning and can not recommend Gay Hawaii B&B highly enough!!

This is my worst experience ever staying at a B&B. I've…read moretraveled all around the world. What was supposed to be a lovely getaway for a personal holiday, it was basically a nightmare. The owner over booked & offered a BALI HUT which is The NIGHTMARE. Rainstorm downpour 5 days. Dripping roof from rain, screens not secured & 2 inch opening under entry door for easy access from jungle critters. The door doesn't lock. If you're looking for numerous mosquito bites, critters & way too many ghekos trying to get out of rain. They live between the rafters. I tried to move back & reclaim my room main home. No one replied, owner got angry & accused me of coming all the way there & making this up not to pay. I also was accused of stalking because of trying to get moved or something? This is NONSENSE. I had to check out after 2 days with no sleep. Because of a holiday wee I paid triple the cost at a last minute hotel back in Hilo I've had nothing but contention & threats trying to be compensated for overbooking & my experience in Bali Hut. I have no reason to lie or make this up. Please Beware
