Puna Rainforest Hot Spring Retreat - Green Bamboo Cottage

Welcome to the Puna Rainforest Hot Spring Retreat - Green Bamboo Cottage, a serene escape nestled within the lush surrounds of the rainforest. This charming studio is located just 4 miles from Pahoa, offering you a perfect retreat with views over a sprawling 20-acre estate.

Enjoy the tranquility and excitement of nature right at your doorstep, featuring active steam vents that provide pure steam, warm ground temperatures, and two rejuvenating hot springs. With no visible neighbors, this secluded haven is enveloped by vibrant citrus trees, bananas, a thriving fruit orchard, avocados, and palm trees—all complemented by colorful flowers that enhance the beauty of your surroundings.

The cozy Green Bamboo Studio comes equipped with a comfortable queen-size bed, a fully functional kitchen, and a complete bathroom. For additional guests—up to one child or a small adult under 5 feet 6 inches—there's a small couch that converts into a bed. Stay connected during your stay with our non-password protected Wi-Fi, while most cell providers ensure you have coverage throughout the property. You can also explore our beautiful 1.2-mile nature trail, perfect for leisurely strolls.

As the evening cools, you'll find the nighttime temperatures ideal for restful sleep, unlike the warmer conditions at sea level. Your privacy is respected here; you'll have the option to check in and out without any required interaction unless you wish to connect or have questions. This is an incredible base for all your adventures on the Big Island.

The Puna Rainforest Estate comprises not only the Green Bamboo Cottage but also three other cottages: Blue Ginger, Purple Passionflower, and Rainbow Cottage. Each cottage offers unique amenities and scenic views overlooking the meadow and ocean, ensuring a diverse range of options for your stay.

For guest convenience, a gated entry provides access to the property, and you'll receive a gate code upon reservation. Privacy and tranquility are paramount, with little requirement for host interaction, although assistance is readily available if needed. You are free to enjoy the pool, hot springs, BBQ facilities, and the enchanting rainforest trail that weaves through the property. Guests are also welcome to indulge in fresh fruits from our orchard, including lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit, passion fruit, banana, soursop, guava, and avocado.

This delightful 20-acre retreat lies within the Puna Forest Reserve, surrounded by a breathtaking rainforest. The steam vents, formed from recent eruptions, release clean steam from boiling groundwater, contributing to the relaxing atmosphere. The volcanic-heated hot springs invite you to lay back on the warm ground, creating a truly unique experience. This region is also home to sacred Hawaiian Native lands, protecting the Ohia forest, which is vital to the local ecosystem and endangered species, such as the Hawaiian Owl, Hawk, and Bat.

The Ohia Forest boasts giant ferns, a variety of orchids, and an array of wildlife, including geckos, songbirds, and praying mantises. As the rainforest is dense, we kindly ask guests to remain on the trails or the grounds for safety purposes. In addition to discovering the beauty of the Puna Rainforest, you will encounter fascinating geological features like lava tubes, trees, and caves that add to the allure of your visit.

Experience the invigorating essence of Hawaii at the Puna Rainforest Hot Spring Retreat - Green Bamboo Cottage. You'll leave feeling refreshed, inspired, and longing to return to this tropical paradise.
