The Laughing Gecko-Cozy Hawaiian Hideaway!

The Laughing Gecko, a 100% smoke-free property, sits on a peaceful acre near cliffs and black sand beaches on Hawaii's east side. The studio offers a private entrance, queen bed, kitchenette, bath, and lanai. Amenities include a washer/dryer, coolers, and beach towels. No A/C, as it's rarely needed. Rooster, chickens, and dogs are on-site.

The studio offers a queen bed, kitchenette, bathroom, and a cozy living area, along with a private lanai perfect for relaxing. Enjoy your morning coffee, cocktails, or meals on the lanai, surrounded by the peaceful beauty of Hawaii. This little slice of paradise is close to a variety of activities and attractions!

The kitchenette is equipped with a mini-fridge, microwave, coffee maker, electric skillet, sink, and all the essentials for quick meals. While most guests choose to dine out, we also have a large BBQ available upon request for those who prefer to cook on-site.

Whether you're here to work or unwind, the studio includes a desk, chair, couch, smart TV with Chromecast, and high-speed internet. Please note, there is no A/C, as the mild temperatures and cool nights make it unnecessary. Though we are in a serene, rural setting, we're conveniently close to Pahoa, Keaau, Hilo, and Volcano.

Guests enjoy a private entrance and access to shared spaces like the carport, laundry area, and yard. Upon arrival, you'll find a lockbox at the gate with your keys—simply use the code we provide for easy access.

We're here to make your stay memorable! I'm happy to recommend activities, dining spots, and places to explore. If you have any questions or special requests, just let us know.

We're in a charming rural area, so you’ll encounter chickens, rabbits, dogs, and friendly geckos on the property. If you have any concerns about the dogs, please inform us in advance.

We respect your privacy and won't disturb you during your stay, but we're always available if you need anything.

We are located 30 minutes south of Hilo, in a peaceful rural area on the east side of Hawaii. Just 10-15 minutes from the charming towns of Pahoa and Keaau, you'll find shops, restaurants, grocery stores, and historic sites to explore. We're also only a half-mile from the stunning ocean cliffs, perfect for catching breathtaking sunrises and, during the right season, whale watching.

Our location is ideal for those looking to experience the natural beauty and local culture of Hawaii. Visit nearby attractions like Isaac Hale Beach Park, Volcanoes National Park, Kehena Black Sand Beach, and the vibrant Uncle Robert's Farmers Market. Don't miss the bustling Sunday Maku'u Market, a local favorite for food, crafts, and entertainment.

We're centrally positioned for easy day trips to other parts of the Big Island, giving you the perfect base for your Hawaiian adventure.

Please note, our property is smoke-free, and we do not allow pets. We offer a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and are here to help make your stay as enjoyable as possible—just let us know how we can assist.

We look forward to welcoming you!
