Malaekahana Beach Campground

"2023.09: had a lucky last camping weekend here before the almost one year full renovation of the camp structures and utilities. I hope it does not go ‘full Turtle Bay’ as the rustic facilities kept it affordable and appropriate. I haven been camping there long enough to remember the old homes that preceded the park. Fingers crossed."

"We have camped at Malaekahana almost every year since 2006. It is always an enjoyable experience, as the campground is well maintained and safe. The latest addition is a slightly grouchy security guard who walks around making sure the campers are being orderly. Highlights include the awesome beach, newly refurbished mini cabins, and the notably decreased chicken population (there used to be way too many chickens!). In the past 17 years of camping here we have never had any problems, and look forward to returning next summer."

"BEAUTIFUL INCREDIBLE LOCATION!!! We were so happy staying here. We camped with a tent and it was right on the beach…like a 30 second walk to the water! Beautiful ocean sounds all night. Not sure if we missed it, but we only saw a porter potty and outdoor shower with cold water. We didn’t mind either for the price ($18/night) and location. Front desk staff was lovely and we enjoyed every second of our staycation. We will be back monthly!!"

"We had a great time at Malaekahana Beach Campground. On arrival, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The campsites were clean and everything looked well-maintained. The beach was beautiful and not crowded. Our neighbors at the site were extremely friendly and the entire experience was a lot better than we were expecting for a weekend camping trip. We will definitely be going back."

"We stayed in a hale, a tiny cabin. It's very basic, rustic and small, the toilet, sink and cold shower are outside. We were happy, because that's what we expected. The campground is next to a beautiful beach. In general, this is a great place to stay besides 3 things: roosters, parties, screaming kids. There are less or no parties or screaming kids on weekdays, so you can plan your trip accordingly. But roosters are just brutal. Earplugs help a bit, but you still get a miserable sleep. I feel like the management could do something to control the rooster population hence the 3 stars."
