Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
Raven and Mark are so welcoming! Raven’s breakfast are exceptional and Mark’s advices (visits) and stories are amazing. The location is great your are close to everything. The lodge is very exotic and peaceful. The sunrise on the sea from the balcony was just a blast every morning.
Raven and Mark are incredible hosts and have created an amazing lodge in Big Island. Off the beaten path but yet close to town, it's the perfect escape. The suite was huge with a beautiful garden and outdoor shower. In the morning, Raven made delicious breakfast with eggs, toast and fruit presented very artistically! Rest of the day we spent in nearby beaches and also watched gorgeous sunsets from their lanai. Can't recommend this place enough!
Beautiful lodge, incredible hosts, right on the shore. Showering outdoors under the stars and having Mark help plan our days. Ravens incredible breakfasts. Learning about the Big Island and the culture and people. A truly magical experience.
The atmosphere was absolutely amazing here. You really feel like you’re sleeping in the rainforest, away from the rest of the world, able to disconnect and find peace. The staff were all very kind, all the guests seemed to know each other and were very friendly, and the food was delicious. I stayed with my son but I could see how this would be a great place for romantic partners to escape together. We stayed in one of the rooms in the lodge so it was a great price for a place to sleep and clean up before exploring the area.
Ma'ukele Lodge is more of a destination than lodging. Raven and Mark are incredible hosts, both for my wife and I and for our 10 and 13 year old children. There is serenity here that finds you, you just need to soak it in.
I cannot say how perfect our stay at Ma’ukele Lodge was this past week. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous! The room is decorated to perfection. The beds are ere comfortable and the breakfasts were delicious! Raven and Mark were amazing hosts…shared so much information about the island with us. Absolutely loved our stay and wished we could have stayed longer! Cannot recommend highly enough!
