Aloha Riverside Café & Stay For the slow traveller in search of stillness, stories, and the soul of the wild. Nestled in the lap of nature, Aloha Riverside is a peaceful riverside retreat built with love, intention, and sustainability at its heart. Tucked just off the main road, reaching us involves a short 4-minute downhill walk via our private stairway just enough to gently leave the rush of the world behind. Crafted with reclaimed wood, landfill bottles, lime, and mud, Aloha is a sanctuary for slow travellers seeking to unwind, reconnect, and soak in the quiet rhythm of riverside living. Our serene views, forested surroundings, and thoughtfully prepared fresh food make for a truly grounding escape. Here, nature is not just scenery, it’s a companion. Depending on the season, especially during the rains, you might share your stay with gentle co-inhabitants like spiders, garden lizards (don’t worry—they’re harmless and prefer the outdoors), bees, etc. We take utmost care to clean and check every room before your arrival, but part of the Aloha experience is embracing the raw beauty of the wild. Aloha Riverside is not just a stay, it’s a pause, a breath, and a one-of-a-kind experience where time moves slower, and the forest, river, and sky remind you of simpler joys.
