This was such a fun, peaceful property!
We came over for a quick one-night trip to see the volcano and celebrate a birthday. It was such a cool property with plenty of space for everyone. The location was perfect for activities in Hilo and at Volcano. Highly recommend.

Beautiful stay in the jungle!
This was a beautiful, secluded place to stay right in between Hilo and Volcanoes National Park. Starting the mornings with coffee on the back porch listening to the birds was a highlight of our trip. Jenny is a very communicative host, and was awesome to work with.

Dome house
Host made sure the entire stay that we had what we needed. The house was a really cool design and set back from the road makes it peaceful and feal like your by yourself while still being close to necessities. I would highly recommend this property.

Unique house near Volcano Park
Stayed for only one night. 20 minutes from the park. House is spacious, quirky and lovely (it is a geodesic dome). Secluded yard with large covered back deck we enjoyed. Jenny is a gracious host who met us and toured the house with us, explaining everything along the way. House was clean with lots of linens and a fridge full of condiments and such free for us to use. House can easily sleep a large family.

Private getaway
Situated between Volcanos National Park and Hilo, this is a unique home with everything we needed to recharge for our next adventure on the Big Island. The kids liked playing hide-and-seek in this spacious home.The home is in a private residential area where dense forest and a private gate in the driveway all but guarantee privacy.The host was made us tea from a local plant, which was a nice touch.

hidden gem
we needed a place for 10 of us to stay, close to volcano. this was a wonderful, affordable option in a really quirky space! everyone was comfortable, the host was super responsive and helpful, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. the property is in a secluded, out of the way spot too, but grocery store was only 15 min away.
