Spacious and private

Enjoyed at the amenities here - hot tub, pavilion, kitchen. Great for some quiet and cool nights while we explored the volcano area. Make sure to air the house daily, it can smell a bit damp with the high humidity every day, the host has air filters and other items to mitigate this issue.

Truly the perfect jungle getaway

We stayed here for five nights on our honeymoon. It is only about fifteen minutes from Volcano National Park, and the property itself has many great amenities. We found it clean, beautiful, and private without being too isolated (it's only a couple minutes from the highway). Caleb and Christyn were great hosts --kind, communicative, and thoughtful. I highly recommend this Rainforest Retreat, and hope to return someday!

Gorgeous!

Loved this place! My son calls it the “jungle house” and it’s indeed a good place to be in nature! So peaceful, worth the drive for sure. Beds were comfortable, clean, and the hosts were quick to respond with any questions. We would absolutely come back!

Birthday- Anniversary Trip

Great location!! Volcano was erupting when we were here. Ice maker was not working so had to buy our own ice. Could have used a few more towels for kitchen. Otherwise had a great stay.

Eruption

Had a great time in Volcano, we loved the area and the distance to Hilo was definitely doable. The house was very comfortable and the outdoor spaces great. Felt very safe and secure with neighbors and gated entrance. Bonus……. Eruption at Volcano National Park. Spectacular!

Great Rainforest House

The house is really nice, clean and updated and only 5 minutes to Volcano national park. You do have to drive through a dirt road to get to the house. The host is very responsive via text. Unfortunately our stay was cut short by the hurricane due to power outage. Host was very nice and refunded us one night of stay so we can move to a hotel.

Wonderful quiet home in Volcano

We loved this peaceful and quiet home in Volcano. Close to the National Park and surrounded by natural beauty and nature. We made plenty use of the hot tub too. Modern kitchen, comfortable beds and all the amenities we needed. We just found our new vacation rental home in Volcano! :)

Wonderful House in the Rainforest

We had a great stay. The wood stove was great on a rainy Volcano day. The hot tub was also wonderful. The kitchen is well stocked and all three bedrooms were comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again the next time we are in Volcano.

Nice home in a mountain setting

The home was clean & nicely updated. We were surprised it was a rustic setting up in the mountain vs in a neighborhood. Also much cooler & wetter than expected but very nice and a different experience than what we are used to in Hawaii, we just embraced it and enjoyed Hawaii in a different way. Not for those who are expecting a sunny, beach experience.

Great home. Highly recommend!

We really appreciate the use of your property in December 2023. The home was as described and very clean. The road immediately to the house is rough; however, the van we rented was able to manage without difficulty. The outdoor fireplace was a real plus! When visiting Volcano National Park and Hilo, this home is convenient and recommended!

Quick, but memorable stay!

Our family hopped islands from Oahu to Maui with a 2.5 day stopover on the Big Island. We absolutely loved the cottage nestled in the woods! It had everything we could ask for, most importantly, it had peace and tranquillity (much needed after 4 days at the Hilton Hawaiian Village)! Hosts were terrific! Left us wanting for nothing. Their cottage is lovely, incredibly well maintained, and beautifully appointed. We slept like rocks, cooked like kings, and relaxed like sloths. All while fitting in two cross island treks, a few hours at Richardson Beach, snorkeling with the mantas and, of course, touring Volcanoes National Park. Highly recommended!

Perfect big island experience!

When we planned our vacation for the big island, we wanted to focus on the Volcano National Park. The property offered a perfect retreat in a peaceful location conveniently located only 13 minutes from the Park entrance. The house had everything you could want- including a toddler cot, high chair, and stroller. We loved the whole experience and would highly recommend this property to everyone!
