Very few places on this planet (and I like to think I've been to a decent number of them) have made me feel as happy and at home as the Banana Bungalow.

This place is amazing! True aloha spirit. Safe, comfortable, unique and lively. As a solo female traveling I felt reassured as soon as I got here. Come support local businesses and experience a home away from home. You won’t want to leave!

The Bungalow is a really magical wild place and I’m so grateful to have experienced it. It’s a safe place to be yourself. It’s a place for open-mindedness, radical acceptance, and cultivating genuine connection.

If you’re young, or young at heart, few hostels can compare with the vitality of this one. A constantly changing, international crowd of 20-somethings generates more pure fun here than anywhere else on the island.
