Our FOUR ROOM INN is situated on a peaceful FRUIT FARM on the East side of the Big Island of Hawaii. Mahana House is a quiet and relaxing place to soak up the expansive ocean views and is IDEALLY LOCATED to explore the many lush gardens and spectacular waterfalls nearby as well as Hilo town and HAWAII VOLCANOES NATIONAL PARK. There are bananas, avocados, lychee and passionfruit available for guests to enjoy in season.

Each of our four NEWLY BUILT guest suites has a KING SIZE BED and PRIVATE LANAI with FULL OCEAN VIEW. All rooms have an ENSUITE bathroom with fully tiled walk-in shower and granite countertop. Guest suites also have complimentary WIFI, TV, kitchen area and private entrance. Guests have access to the great room of the house which has a full kitchen, laundry room, and lounge areas. Our large lanais are the perfect place to BBQ and enjoy dinner by tiki torch light in the evening or coffee with sunrise in the morning.

Some day trip ideas include exploring waterfalls and gardens nearby, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, and MAUNA KEA summit and stargazing. There is virtually no limit to the activities and adventures available to you on the Big Island. We have a 3 night minimum for guest reservations.

There is often more availability than may appear on our reservation calendars. Please feel free to call or email us directly with any questions.

The OCEAN is a short drive down the road to a former sugar cane plantation, now Hakalau Park. HAWAII TROPICAL BOTANICAL GARDEN and AKAKA FALLS are within a few easy miles of the farm. After a day of sight seeing, return to the beautiful ocean view, warm breezes and peaceful atmosphere of our farm.

MAHANA HOUSE COUNTRY INN is owned and operated by Randy and Alison Simpson who have years of experience in the hospitality industry. We pride ourselves on the CLEANLINESS and COMFORT of our WELL-APPOINTED guest rooms. It is our most sincere wish to provide our guests with a quiet, peaceful, and relaxing stay on the Big Island. The incredible natural beauty and climate of Hawaii is something we appreciate every day and it is a privilege to share this wonderful place with our guests.

Mahalo,

Mahana House Country Inn exceeded our expectations in every way. First, the location is stunning. We spent every morning on the lanai with coffee and every evening with a glass of wine enjoying the ocean view. The room was just as pictured and very comfortable and clean. The towels and linens were first class. We appreciated the kitchenette for breakfast and putting together our lunches and the main house kitchen for preparing dinner. We looked forward to the mini-bananas that were picked from the farm and left each morning. Some of the little things that were so nice...rugs on the lanai so you didn't have to walk on the concrete, soaps and lotion in the bath, plenty of bath tissue and paper towels, the things to do booklet. It all contributed to a great experience. Randy and Alison were always there and responded to anything we needed (thanks for the tiki torch refill!!). Their background in the hospitality field really shows in the way the make each guest feel like a family member. Thank you so much for sharing the quiet side of the island with us. We will whole-heartedly be recommending Mahana House to all of our friends who are planning a visit to the Big Island.

Loved the room and setting!

We so appreciated the care with which Randy and Allison have developed this property. The room is very large with ample space and equipment for preparing simple meals. We also could use the large kitchen in the main house a few steps away. Our end room was well ventilated. Alison has done a wonderful job with her design and furnishing. Very attractive and simple so there is not a lot of stuff around to get in your way. Nice lanai; the shower was one of the best. We did not miss our tv and learned to download a movie or 2. Most of all we loved the view out over the large lawn and the distant ocean. We loved this setting, 15 miles north of old Hilo. We prefer this to being in town. We would stay again if we ever return to Hawaii. We highly recommend the Mahana Inn. Also, Randy was incredibly attentive and helpful.

Peacefull, convenient, everything we hoped for and more!

Randy and Alison's oisis far exceeded expectations! This young couple has very intentionally planned every detail with the the comfort and enjoyment of their guests in mind. From the friendly personalized welcome sign and the abundance of free fruit, to the luxerious, spacious common room and huge perfectly equipped kitchen, to the tastfully designed and decorated individual rooms, everything is perfect! Each unit has a relaxing, private front patio which overlooks the country side through to the ocean. The view is serene and beautiful. A prepared binder offers excellent advice snd directions for tourists, enhanced with ideas resulting from Randy and Alison's personal explorations. Additional materisls are also available. Laundry facilities are excellent and provided at no extra costs.This couple's preparations for their guests and their friendliness is exemplary! We only wish we could have stayed longer!

This facility would also be perfect for a family gathering or group of friends.

This was an amazing place to stay. It's up the hill from the water and has an amazing view of the ocean. There are a lot of things to do around Hilo and just a few minutes away is a waterfall you can jump off of. The service was great Randy and Allison are very accommodating. All of the amenities appeared to be brand new or almost brand new with the quality you would expect at a 5 star resort.

A litttle piece of heaven.

My husband and I just spent two wonderful weeks at Mahana House. The accomodations are outstanding and very clean and comfortable. Each room has a small kitchenette with a fridge and microwave. There is a large kitchen and living area for all visitors to share. It was so wonderful to have laundry facilities available. The views from our private lanai were beautiful to say the least. There is so much to see and do on the Big Island. Randy and Alison have done a great job with recomendations for sightseeing and even providing directions and mileage to each spot. Take advantage of the fruit that is available on the farm. The camp fires were a lot of fun. The apple bananas were delicious. We would both highly recommend Mahana House.

One of the things we love most about our property is that we are in quiet rural setting while at the same time close to Hilo which has all we need for groceries, restaurants, shopping and entertainment.
