"Cozy, quiet, peaceful and magical" -- these are some of the words guests have used to describe this unique cottage in the Hawaiian rain forest.

A complimentary continental breakfast of local fruits, juice, local jams & jellies & breads is provided for you to enjoy at your leisure on your first morning.

Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park, with hiking trails and amazing lava vistas, is just a mile away. At the end of your touring day come home to the always hot outdoor hot tub in the rainforest, and your private lanai, or cozy up to the gas fireplace.

Your hosts, Boy (Ron) and Debra, are nearby for suggestions on your sight-seeing plans or questions on local life. Decorating the cottage are some of Debra's original paintings of around the Big Island. Some of Boy's woodwork items are also on display.

Boy and Debra's Place is nestled in the heart of the beautiful and quaint village of Volcano with excellent restaurants, 2 convenience stores and gas, art studios and a winery.

In Hilo, just 40 minutes away there is shopping, dining, museums and beaches. In the other direction 40 minutes is Punalu'u Black Sand Beach, famous as the nesting place for Honu, Hawaiian sea turtles.

At 4,000 feet of elevation, you will enjoy cool mornings and evenings and clear mountain air that will have you feeling relaxed in no time.

Local yoga classes are available and massage by appointment. Come, enjoy what other guests have enjoyed -- your private island paradise. Aloha! Boy & Debra

Volcano - Boy & Debra's Place - Romantic Rain Forest Cottage
5/5

Comfortable and Cute in Lush Tropical Forest

Guest: Claire and Rich (Los Gatos, CA)
Date of Stay: 05/07/11 Review Submitted: 06/02/11

We stayed 5 nights (May 7-11) at this cute, adorable and comfortable accommodation amidst ferns that grow higher than the cottage itself. The hosts were very gracious, interesting, artistic and delightful people. Debra is a very talented artist who had an art show in Downtown Hilo, which was fun to visit. This is in a great central location to the Volcanoes National Park, Hilo and the Puna Coast area. The hot tub was an added bonus. We ate 3 dinners at the excellent Kiawe Kitchen nearby, and one good dinner at the Lava Rock Cafe.

Owner response:Aloha Claire and Rich, Thank you so much for taking the time to write your lovely note. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We feel so grateful to live in the serenity of the rainforest and are pleased to share it. And as you could see at the art show, its beauty is a source of inspiration! Aloha, Debra & Boy

Ron & Debra, We had a special time for our 5 days here in our rainforest cottage-so beautiful and peaceful. The nightly hot tub soak...devine! Thanks to Debra and Ron for being gracious, unpretentious and attentive yet laid-back hosts. We love the artisitic touches to the cottage and grounds and will proudly hang our newly acquired Debra Serrao original painting. With love, Sue and Bruce, Appleton, Maine

We loved staying in this cozy cabin under the giant ferns. There were so many thoughtful touches that made this truly luxurious and special, from the breakfast on the first day to the fire and electric blanket and towel warmer, to the CD's in the player, to the cooking supplies, the hot cocoa and more! We loved all the art and little sculptures and whimsical touches in the yard too. What a great time! We hiked our fill and used the hottub every night. Thanks again! Alana & Seabrook, Berkeley, CA

We were looking for quiet seclusion and a place to cook. Your lovely cottage gave us all that and more. We loved all the extras: the heated towel rack, socks in a basket by the front door (I forgot mine) and all the fresh flowers: to name a few. Mahalo, Glen & Elizabeth, Fairfield, Iowa
