Close But Far.... Cool da Heels


Aloha travlers!

I'm very happy to see that you made it through these last couple of months, it certianly has been one for the history books!
If you are feeling the urge to venture out, Hotel Pa'amalu may be the very place for you. We are now accepting reservations from safety minded travelers. Our cottage is located on a three acre mango farm and your closest neighbor is located twice as far as your best mango toss on a good day!
Hotel Pa'amalu is the only one room hotel in Kealakekua Hawaii. Hotel Pa'amalu is a blend of Polynesia, Indonesia and amnesia. Come swim in our warm tropical waters or explore the enchanting tropical rain forests atop Kilauea, possibly the most active volcano on the plantet. Plan your day while lounging on the lanai, comforted by the warm gentle trade wind breezes.
You can begin your day 5 minutes from historical Kealakekua Bay, on the leeward slopes of Mauna Loa on the island of Hawaii. The weather is warm, sunny and mild all year long...yes all year long.
Hotel Pa'amalu is not really a hotel, I just thought that was a catchy name. My dad, friends and I built this little house a few years back. I would, however, describe it as a small story book cottage, welcoming you to write your own chapter. We are settled just up slope from an old Hawaiian fishing village known as Keei. We are surrounded by many different varieties of mangos, bananas and other horticultural surprises including our native geckos. If you don’t mind geckos this place is for you.
Hotel Pa'amalu is a fun, retreat, romantic get away, or a brief interlude as you travel our beautiful islands.
Thanks so much for visiting, hope to hear from you soon!
Aloha......
Oh, if you come during mango season you may never leave the lanai!
Mahalo Nui Loa,
