Guide books are a good source of information about Budget travel, we highly recommend Lonely Planet, Frommers, Fodors, Lets Go, Hawaii Rough Guide & the new Hostels USA. The Travel shelves of your nearest Borders or Barnes & Noble (in the USA) or YOUR favourite book source are a mine of information. Be aware that some comprehensive guide books such as Frommers come in versions for differant price brackets such as "Hawaii on $60 a day" etc.
  Hostel style accommodation and Camping on the Big Island.

Updated March 2007, if you have visited this page before, please read update.

Please read what Lonely Planet and other Backpacker style guidebooks have to say about Arnott's Lodge and realize that we have no interest in giving you incorrect information. What follows is an honest assessment of "How it is" on the Big Island and we will keep this updated as things evolve.

The Big Island has two sides, The Hilo side where we are located and the Kona side over 120 miles(200km) away, both Hilo and Kona now have direct mainland flights, Hilo's via ATA from Oakland.

Hilo is the Eco Tour center for Volcanoes National Park and its active Lava flows, Mauna Kea Mountain with the worlds largest Telescopes and incredible views and hikes, all the Valleys and waterfalls, Punaluu Black sand Beach with its Turtles and Puna with its warm springs are on Hilo side, the things for which the Big Island is famous.
Kona Airport is 10 miles from Town and 20 miles from Budget accommodation Manago Hotel or Koa Hale Hostel (formerly Patey's) on the hill above Mc Donald's, its URL changes so Google it up.

Arnotts is minutes from the Airport which has reliable taxi service. We have a free 8:00am daily departure shuttle and $3 a day bikes so you can get around.
There are also two older Hotels right in Kona Uncle Billy's and the King Kamehameha Hotel at Kona Pier.
No budget Hotel or Hostel that we know of has shuttle service, although the county bus does go to Manago once a day..
Be aware however that certain annual events completely sell out Kona Town, like the Ironman competition.

Your best bet by far, if you are a backpacker on a budget, and are looking for camping or dormitory accommodation, is to fly in to Hilo , catch a taxi to our Lodge and plan to do the Lava Hike and the Mauna Kea Summit and Star show. Use our $3 a day bikes to check out the town, then network with other travelers or ask us questions and get set up by sharing rental cars or learning the pros and cons of "hitching" and the free daily bus system. If your flight lands in Kona you need to get to Koa Hale in Kona. There is a network of good campgrounds around the Island starting with our tenting area at the Lodge (there is no free or county camping anywhere near Hilo).

Come into Hilo get set up, get latest information and permits, in some cases we provide "space available" inexpensive transport to Volcano or North to Waipio if your needs coincide with a tour to that area. While hitchhiking is technically illegal, many people do. Many are given rides to specific places out of friendliness and we have yet to hear of a negative experience. Our Lodge is well known and Backpackers considered honored guests of our Island . Police ask that you do not solicit rides in hazardous traffic areas and that you stand still rather than move along the roadside.

Guide Books

Over our 17 years in business we were very fortunate to catch the attention of Lonely Planet guidebook early on, being listed in its Backpacker and Budget travel sections made a huge difference to our ability to survive and improve our Lodge. Lonely Planet's writers never announce their presence and pay full price for everything which makes their reporting highly objective and tends to keep Hotels and Hostels on their toes as you never know who may be the Lonely Planet writer. Even with the proliferation of web based travel advice we continue to see many guests show up at our lodge carrying Lonely Planet.

As time went by other excellent Guidebook companies discovered us and give us positive Listings, Frommer's and Fodor's are both reputable books with a mine of information about Hawaii, some editions are geared to different economic levels of traveler.

Hidden Hawaii does not appear to have its own website but is available through Amazon as is The Big Island Revealed Wizard Publications or through Amazon both of these are excellent books for the Big Island.

Insiders Guide---Off the beaten path is a book that you have to find at a bookstore, Let's Go, however a mainstream guidebook has its own website Roughguide to the Big Island and The Big Island Trail Blazer has its own website or can be purchased through bookstores such as Barnes and Noble.

This leaves the last book of our current research Travel Smart Hawaii Travelmatters.com or Globecorner.com

When selecting Guide books for Hawaii one has to realize that there are a very large number of different things to do on each Island so an overall Hawaii Guidebook may not be as good as a Big Island Guidebook. This is of course also true of a United States guidebook which may not even get down to details of budget accommodation in a small town like Hilo.

Most large well organized bookstores such as Borders or Barnes and Noble have extensive racks of guidebooks to assist you with your journey and its preparation.

We are providing this page as a service and Doug Arnott as of September 2007 will go to our local and Oahu Borders and get names of other books that represent us and the Big Island in a fair and objective manner.

For general Hawaii information there is also the Visitors Bureau site which lists members on every Island, most reputable visitor facilities are members.

  California----Los Angeles:

Seahorse Inn
233 N.Sepulveda Blvd
Manhattan Beach, California 90266
Phone: (310) 376-7951
Fax: (310) 376-6721
Res.: (800) 233-8057
Doug Arnott our owner discovered this delightful Motel while looking for reasonable accommodation in a "near beach" area. It is very ordinary looking but super friendly, helpful management and staff make the place special. The property is right on Pacific Coast Highway (Sepulveda) about 10 minutes South of LAX Airport. While it is right on this busy road it has double glazed windows and Aircon, a swimming pool and Hotel run restaurant right on the grounds that has the best value breakfasts we found on our whole trip.

For Internet access there is a nearby Kinko's at Artesia and you are minutes to major shopping including Galleria (Artesia and Hawthorne) that my Lady friend voted "Best mall in the Southwest United States".
Major Beaches and the fun of Manhattan Beach or Hermosa Beach are minutes away. Proximity to the Airport and major car rental drop off centers is an added bonus.

Rates range from $59 to $69 a double which is not Backpackers rates but this memo is for our Budget category travelers as our backpackers will be reading Lonely Planet !!

Since Los Angeles is so fast moving, we highly reccoment you refer to Lonely Planet GUidebook. Other than Seahorse Inn above, we do not personally know of any other facility that we can recommend.

Doug Arnott and his Lady friend Kathy returned July 7th 03 from a trip to Sydney, Perth, Margaret River wine area South of Perth and on up to Broome in the tropical North West. He finished the trip by flying to Cairns where the town has undergone a revolution since his last visit in 1995. Of particular interest are two purpose built multi million $$$ hostels one in Cairns and one in Port Douglas just to the North. Doug and Kathy stay in the budget category so Kathy can have her own bathroom but enthusiastically visit Hostels and meet staff and owners. Below are listed Hotels we stayed at in the Budget Category, some restaurants, as we are foodies when we travel and the Hostels we visited....each with a small comment.

Serpent Hostel Cairns ... (See Picture Gallery) ... along with Parrotfish in Pt Douglas, this has to be the best and most superbly thought out Hostel we have ever seen. It sets a new standard and since our return we have been planning how to catch up to such a major advance in the Hostel trade. We met the busy but extremely helpful Front desk manager Martin Valentine.

Parrotfish Lodge, Port Douglas ... (See Picture Gallery) ... was brought to my attention above by Bob on his trip. Like Serpent it is new, superbly designed and has every amenity a backpacker could want. Petra and Debo are the friendly owner/managers. It is in easy walking distance of all major amenities. Port Douglas is a HAPPENING place !!

Cable Beach Backpackers in Broome ... (See Picture Gallery) ... is definitely the place to stay in the far Northwest, with large kitchens and bathroom facilities a pool, a bar, projector TV, pool table and many more amenities it is also right up there although not as new as those above.....it is also close to the ENORMOUS Cable beach. Tony Vuletic is the hard working owner/ manager and showed us around.

Roebuck Bay Hostel right in the heart of Broome was very kind in facilitating our internet access however we would hesitate to recommend a stay there. It receives bad reviews in guide books and is not up to current standards......Go to Cable Beach !!

In Broome Graham Macarthur of Halls Creek and Bungle Bungle Tours (08) 9193 7267 was immensely helpful and booked us on two flying combined with ground tours that were superb. Due to VAST distances no tours are cheap in Broome. His office is just around the corner from Henrys Cafe....anyone going to Broome...a micro town, will get to know Henrys and the open air theatre next door. Internet access abounds in Broome with heavy competition.

In Broome, Matso's Cafe....just installing a Micro brewery, was the up market choice for superb dinners and service, Cafe Carlottas, BYOB was excellent Italian food. Broome is spread out and one should get a car to fully enjoy the level above backpackers.....for them there are all kinds of tours and activities. Old Zoo Cafe near Cable Beach Backpackers is the lead trendy Restaurant after Matso's.

In the Kimberly wilderness, far North Western Australia, there is an Oasis....Mt. Hart Wilderness Lodge . We flew into this fascinating ranch or Station Gallery in the middle of nowhere but close to the world class geological features of this vast underinhabited region. Taffy Abbotts the owner will greet your small plane on the short dirt strip and invite you in to a full service bar for a few cold ones. A sumptuous lunch is served daily to the air tour customers who fly in and the Hotel Guests who are intrepid enough to drive in. Kathy and I wished we had time for an overnight as the Stars in this lightless environment must be incredible with both Northern and Southern hemisphere visible. A visit to this facility is included in many Airtours out of Broome that visit the Kimberly Gorges and the more distant Bungle Bungle ranges.

Check back for Margaret River and Perth recommendations.
