BenTiki's Yurt in Waiohinu

“Welcome to BenTiki's – your island-inspired getaway! Escape to our sun-soaked 24' diameter yurt, complete with a refreshing 18' private above-ground pool, perfect for cooling off after a day in tropical paradise. This bright and airy yurt offers the modern comforts of home, including a sleek kitchen with granite countertops, a microwave, gas range & full-size refrigerator — ideal for whipping up island-inspired meals. The spacious bathroom features a custom tiled shower and on demand hot water heater.

Kick back in the living area, where a comfortable loveseat converts to a single bed, making it a great spot to chill with a book or catch a movie. A functional dining table also doubles as a convenient workspace if you need to stay connected while surrounded by paradise. Best of all, you'll be staying in an eco-friendly, solar-powered home!

Step out onto the large covered lanai for meals or to simply soak in the gentle tropical breezes. Enjoy the lush surroundings of a quiet half-acre, just minutes from town but tucked away in a neighborhood of friendly full-time residents.

At BenTiki's, it's all about coming home to your personal tropical retreat, where relaxation meets the excitement of your sun-soaked Hawaiian adventures.”

“Other things to note:

BenTiki's runs completely on solar power & then batteries once the sun sets so please turn off all lights when you’re not using them & aim to run large appliances while the sun shines. No laundry is to be done after dark.

Please close all windows & crank the ceiling dome shut before leaving to prevent rain from coming into the Yurt.

Please be aware of the sensitive septic system so it functions flawlessly during your stay. Only flush your natural waste & the toilet paper that is provided. Put EVERYTHING else in the rubbish bin provided, even products advertised as “flushable.”

You are expected to clean up after you cook - this helps to keep tropical pests - like ants out of the yurt during your stay.

Pool rules are posted inside the Yurt.  POOL CLEANER comes each Monday in the afternoon to clean, so guests are asked to vacate the pool during this time and allow cleaner the opportunity to get their work completed (approximately an hour).

PLEASE READ BEFORE USE OF THE POOL.”

You may want to consider bringing groceries from Hilo or Kona. There are some small grocery store options about 12 miles away but selection may be more limited.  Both Hilo and Kailua-Kona offer a variety of SuperMarkets, Walmart, Target and more....
