Experience the Hawaii House - 45 Minutes from Volcano National Park, with Fruit Trees & Hiking

Your getaway at the Hawaii House - 45 Minutes from Volcano National Park, Fruit Trees & Hiking promises a unique experience surrounded by nature's beauty. Nestled within a stunning 1.5-acre landscape of vibrant gardens, this property creates an idyllic setting where you can pick fresh avocado, lilikoi passion fruit, and cocoa pods during the appropriate seasons.

The tranquil forest atmosphere enhances your stay, allowing you to unwind on the lovely screened-in lanai that connects seamlessly with one of the kitchen areas. Guests rave about the inviting soft lighting, charming Hawaiian decor, and the overall cozy ambiance that makes you feel right at home.

Located on the eastern side of the Big Island, often referred to as the Hilo Side, you'll find yourself immersed in lush jungles, with attractions like the stunning Rainbow Falls and Akaka Falls. Plus, the famous Maku'u Farmer's Market is nearby, along with the renowned Volcano National Park, just a short 45-minute drive away. Numerous pristine beaches close to Hilo Bay await your exploration, including popular locales for turtle sightings, such as Richardson Beach and the tidal pools at Carl Smith Beach.

Only 4 miles from Pahoa, HI, this area boasts diverse dining options and rustic storefronts, offering a magical charm that captivates all visitors. While some might describe the east/Hilo side as rainy compared to the west/Kona side, your experience here over three years has proven that sunshine graces this part of the island every day! A trip to the east side complements a Kona stay beautifully, providing ample sunlight to take in all the highlights.

In this peaceful and private jungle setting, you are just 4 miles from Pahoa Village. The gardens surrounding the property are exquisite, while the newly designed screened-in kitchen/lanai serves as an extraordinary gathering space adorned with soft lighting and ample seating.

As you meander down the long, tree-lined driveway flanked by majestic palms and colorful flowers, you may feel as though you've stepped into a scene from Jurassic Park. The impressive array of coconut palms, lip-stick palms, and Ohia-Lehua trees create a breathtaking natural tapestry, perfect for leisurely strolls to discover various fruit trees thriving on site. Enjoy avocados, passion fruit, limes, oranges, lemons, coconuts, and cacao, with many available for picking depending on the season—an adventure included in your stay!

This spacious home accommodates up to 12 guests, featuring four bedrooms: two large rooms with king beds and two additional rooms with queen beds plus a full bed. For added comfort, the expansive great room offers extra sleeping arrangements on two large couches and a queen inflatable mattress upon request.

The outdoor screened-in lanai kitchen is equipped with a full refrigerator, stove, air fryer, microwave, propane grill, coffee makers, waffle maker, wok, toaster, and a two-basin sink, providing ample preparation space. With seating for over 14, it’s an ideal spot for both serene mornings and lively evening gatherings.

Both king bedrooms boast private entrances, and air conditioning is provided in the green and orange bedrooms, while fans circulate cool breezes throughout the entire house. Experience a luxurious shower with robes available in each room, and enjoy a beautiful new bathroom featuring a rain shower. Bedside outlets cater to all your charging needs, ensuring convenience throughout your stay.

Your entertainment options include an 84” Smart TV in the great room, with Netflix available for your viewing pleasure. Should you require extra bedding, queen air mattresses can be arranged, and the two large couches can also accommodate more guests.

Your access road is composed of rock, dirt, and gravel, which is perfectly safe to drive. All vehicles are suitable, but those with higher clearance may find it preferable. A Jeep is not necessary unless you're aiming for the summit of Mauna Kea or exploring some lesser-known beach access roads that are rich in hidden gems.

A second kitchen, located in the yellow/red king bedroom with an adjoining bathroom, features an electric stovetop, fridge, and microwave. This room opens onto another private screened-in lanai with seating for six, conveniently situated near the main screened lanai.

Shared spaces include a spacious living room equipped with an 84” Smart TV, outdoor seating on the lanai with room for up to 12, a covered outdoor kitchen, a gazebo in the backyard, wooded trails, and plenty of parking options. The large gazebo not far from the outdoor screened lanai has hammock swings, comfortable outdoor chairs, and a table for four, complete with Wi-Fi speakers and gentle lighting for your nighttime get-togethers.

Stay connected with a recently upgraded fiber-optic Wi-Fi connection, ensuring smooth internet access for video calls or streaming—though occasional interruptions may occur due to weather conditions or maintenance. Rest assured, your online meetings will generally go off without a hitch.

The owners reside on the second story of the home, maintaining privacy for guests. Accompanied by a friendly Malti-poo, they ensure a peaceful environment during your stay.

Delight in local art, children’s swings, fascinating insect collections, hammock swings, and fun games waiting in your backyard. Discover the magic

Summary: We had a wonderful time at the 2 properties. Both properties were clean, beautifully decorated, and comfortable. The owners were always available and helpful. The only problem we had was driving the dirt road leading up to the property. It had several deep holes which made driving difficult, especially on the rainy days and at night. We were enthralled with the rainforest plants and flowers. So gorgeous! The beds were very comfortable. We slept well! I thank the owners for providing such a lovely place for getting away from it all!
