About this property
Hau'oli Place - Happy little tiki cottage in Volcano
Our cozy little "Happy Place", is right across from Volcano Village with its restaurants and Sunday Farmers Market, & 5 minutes from Volcanoes National Park. Perfect home away from home for exploring eastern Hawai’i!
THE SPACE
Our little Volcano Village is the perfect spot to relax. Slightly cooler with less humidity, it’s a hidden rainforest retreat! Volcano Village is a small town just Hilo side of Volcanoes National Park. We are a beautiful little artist community and great resting spot for seeing the east side of the island with it's rainforest, orchid gardens, winery, hiking trails, farmers markets -- simply an amazing place. Perfectly positioned between the green and black sand beaches, the uniqueness of Pahoa, and old Hawaii in Hilo town . We hope you will come discover it for yourself, and love it just as much as we do!
Now, a little about the house -- a warm and comfortable little piece of Hawaiiana.
Beautiful craftsmanship abounds in our one bedroom (plus brand new comfy pull out couch), upgraded bath, home in the beautiful Volcano community. From the carved bar to the lava rock fireplace to the Jacuzzi jetted tub, we've paid attention to every detail. French doors from the living room and bedroom give you plenty of indoor/outdoor living. Play horseshoes out back, settle in under the stars and enjoy the fire pit, or create a gourmet dinner to enjoy on the private lanai - make yourself at home!
Some features of Hau’oli Place:
• Spacious lanai with a gas grill, perfect for dining, relaxing, or making colleagues jealous during Zoom calls on your "co-working" vacation
• High speed cable internet
• House is situated on the lot to provide maximum privacy
• Ample Parking
• Guidebooks, magazines, and various other reading material
• Board games (be a kid again!)
• Full kitchen with full size gas stove and oven and refrigerator/freezer
• Cooking basics including coffee, tea, sugar, oil and vinegar
• Drip and percolator coffee makers and tea kettle
• Queen size bed with clean linens in private bedroom with french doors leading to the lanai
• Heated mattress pad for those cool nights
• Queen size pull out couch in the living room
• Electric blanket to cozy under
• French doors from the living room onto the private lanai, doubling your living space
• Lava rock gas burning fireplace
• Hand carved koa bar
• HD TV with cable and bluray DVD player in both living room and bedeoom

About the host
Hosted by Mark Worster
We have been traveling to the island for years, and two years ago decided to make it our forever home. We love to travel, love good food, and have fallen deeply in love with our Hawai'i home. Volcano is a special place and we can't wait to share it with you!
Why they chose this property
Beautiful craftsmanship, privacy, and all the comforts of home. Why stay in a hotel or someone's mother-in-law apartment when you can have a beautiful home all of your own!
