About the host

Hosted by Gigi Lee

Host profile image
Aloha!! I moved to Hawaii over 35 years ago. I LOVE Hawaii, (duh! ...what's not to love?!) I do feel blessed to live in such a special and unique place and I am excited to share my backyard with you! Peace love and lipgloss.

Why they chose this property

If you love peace, privacy and tranquility, this is the place for you. Nestled off the beaten path, Gigi's cottage is a sweet little gem. A non-smoking, pet free home perfect for a single traveler or a couple. Cozy, private and well provisioned. After a long day of hiking through Volcano National Park, come home and put your feet up and unwind. Fresh, clean rainwater for bathing, cooking and drinking is a special little treat.

What makes this property unique

The host is fluent in sign language and a professional pianist. (Maybe a fun piano lesson while you're here?) Gigi is also a professional photographer and licensed wedding officiant just in case you would like to elope, renew your vows, or have a photo shoot while you are here.

The grounds are just so lush and full of hundreds of flowers and birds. It really is a very special spot. No street noise, dogs or children on property so it is very quiet and peaceful.
