This place is amazing! The hostel itself is clean (never ever seen any hair in showers, dirty toilets, rotten food in a fridge or dirty dishes left), well managed (no food stealing, no noise at night) with a very nice and helpful staff. Their free tours are great - you get to see the island all around and it is... More

Great hostel. Beautiful tours, nice people, good place to be. Clean. I really enjoyed being there. Only the kitchen could be open earlier. If you stay for a couple of days, consider to get a car for one or two days to be able to move around independently. More

The bungalow is a bit of a mixed bag. On one hand, Maui is awesome, with great beaches, waterfalls and hikes and good snorkeling. The hostel is in Wailuku, which is a bit run down, but is redeveloping and has a few nice restaurants (the Thai and Vietnamese places are great) and shops ("Takamiya", the market down the street is...

Seriously... Greatest. Time. Ever. It's a hostel so don't expect the ritz, but you'll never have a better time in your life. The guides, Henry and Nadine, are fun, informative, and make the trip personal and exciting. You'll never want to stay anywhere else once you've come home to the bungalow. More

I went to hawaii for 10 days; the first 5 were spent at the hostel, the 2nd 5 at a legit hotel. All I have to say is that I would have much rather continued to stay at the hostel for a number of reasons. 1. The atmosphere. This was the first time I ever stayed at a hostel, so... More

My wife and I stayed at the hostal for a few days along our honeymoon/anniversary trip to the islands. The place has a really great feel to it; both from the staff and the people who were staying there at the time. The hot tub was a great hang out place to meet people from all over (met people from...

The layout is very inviting to socialize with everyone or just chill on your own in the hammock or hot tub. Staff is awesome! If you want to have fun, see Maui's best spots and meet people while in Maui then this... More

We were already excited about going to Maui but the Bungalow definitly made our trip better than we could have imagined! They were a blast! The workers were awesome and everyone was so friendly! They had trips around the island every day and the one main thing I was hoping to do was see a real waterfall. The staff was... More
