About this property

Volcano Rainforest Estate & Lodge; 5 miles to National Park; Hot Tub; 3 BR/3 BA 11-3203 Huakai Street, Volcano, HI, 96785, US

ENTIRE MAIN HOUSE RENTAL

Owner Hosted, owner's cottage is located on the property down a separate drive, privacy for guests in main house.

The Volcano Rainforest Lodge is a luxury craftsman house in an ancient forest.
We are located only a few minutes from the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park main entrance near Kilauea summit and the friendly artists community of Volcano Village. Volcano Rainforest Lodge is located in a secluded, private, 9-acre forest estate. Each room is designed to view the forest and lava outcroppings.

The Lodge was designed with privacy in mind. No other guests will be on the property during your visit. The house is located on an extremely quiet, 3-acre lot. The 3-acre lots on either side have been acquired to allow for additional peace and quiet.

This Lodge has 2,300 square feet, on one level with three bedroom/bathroom suites, gourmet kitchen, living room with lava rock fireplace, 16' x 20' dining room, laundry room and over 1,400 square feet of covered, outside living area (lanai) with comfortable seating. The home has three staircases which access the main level. The rear staircase has only four steps. A guest favorite - " The "hot tub under the stars" is behind the dining room lanai.

The Lodge has three king bedroom suites. With advance notice, one suite can be arranged with two twin beds. We also have two roll-away twin beds an inflatable twin bed, a Pack-N-Play, and a crib for larger groups and groups with younger children.

The Lodge has Mango flooring, and door/window trim. Mango is also used in the bathroom cabinets and mirror frames. The doors are solid core knotty Alder. The ceilings are beautiful Canadian Pine with Red Western Cedar beams from Oregon. Counter tops in the Lodge are granite. Bathroom walls and floors are gauged Quartzite.

This beautiful home provides all the elements to make your vacation on the Big Island a memorable experience.

The Lodge is like a breath of fresh air amidst the beautiful forest of Ohias and Hapu'u tree ferns; a quiet place to relax and unwind, while being located close to the various adventures in the area.

Each of the suites has a big screen, ultra high definition, smart TV, private lanai, and a keyed exterior door, The lodge has super high speed fiber optic internet service.

Clean. Beautiful wood furnishings, stone fireplace and rainforest environs. But know that the rainforest is very humid and chilly. The house only has portable room heaters, so it may not be for everyone.

Host was great. Property was one of the most beautiful we ever stayed at. Very comfortable home. If we can say a minor improvement would be to add a few more kitchen culenary utensils and cups / plates for a home of this size. Decorations and furnishings were incredible. All in all in all lovely home that we'd like to return to.

What a beautiful estate situated in the lush Hawaiian Islands The house is constructed with outstanding attention to architectural detail and the interior was just as beautiful—clean, and thoughtfully designed to complement the natural beauty outside. Waking up to such breathtaking views each morning was amazing!Everything about our stay was peaceful and restorative. The house was well-equipped, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the location offered the perfect mix of seclusion and accessibility. Thank you to Jennifer and Rob, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The house was awesome and perfect for our needs. We all thoroughly enjoyed our time and didn’t want to leave. The hosts were awesome and even reached out to advise us to visit the park when the Volcano erupted (luckily we had just entered the park already when it started). It was an amazing experience and we’d definitely stay here again. Thank you!
