Oliana Cottage - Leilani Pahoa - Alergia AmigƔvel

Tranquil, Tropical, Private. The Oliana Cottage is located in Puna Beach Palisades, a short walk to black sand naturist Kehena Beach. Allergy Friendly! Located just minutes away from Kalapana, and the new Poihiki Beach. At times you can hear the waves crash against the cliffs.

Sunlight and gentle tradewinds fill the charming studio Oliana Cottage. 3 hour drive from Kona Airport, 1 hour from Hilo Airport, 45 minutes to Volcanoes National Park. Self check-in available. Please note that there is little to no cell service in this fairly remote part of the island. You will hear cocqui frogs for sure, sometimes quite loud, and cute green geckos may run across your cotage wall. My personal Cancellation Policy in case of an emergency is at least a partial refund up to 24 hours before arrival, but you will have to ask me to input this manually into the system, if necessary.

The Cottage (370 sq ft studio w/bath) has a queen-size bed, separate bathroom with toilet and large indoor shower (no sink in the bathroom), and kitchenette with sink, hotplate, microwave, toaster, electric teakettle, blender, S&P, coffee, teabags, pots, pans, utensils & more. Kitchenette is especially adequate for short stays of 8 nights or less.

It is a short hike down the cliff to the famous black sand clothes-optional Kehena beach. A five minute drive to Kalapana and Uncle Robert's where there is a convenience store, farmer's market on Saturdays, and live music some evenings. Nearest gas stations, grocery stores, and banks are in Pahoa town, 20 miles away.

The Oliana Point seen in one of the spectacular coastal photo above is literally across the street. Swim with the dolphins or whale watch in season.

Not a full kitchen, no stove, no dishwasher, no garbage disposal. Only one sink located in the main room. Please see photos.

The Oliana Guesthouse is smoke-free, fragrance-free and pet-free for the comfort of those with allergies.

The Cottage and the main house share a hot/cold outdoor shower, in addition to your private shower, and laundry service is available on request. Please enjoy the outdoor shower, especially good to wash off sand from the beach. All linens provided.

Free wireless internet and free domestic (US, Canada, Mexico) long distance on a landline, please ask.

Chairs available for outdoor seating. Anything else you need may be available, please ask.

Some 2022 Reviews from the in-room Guest Book:

Thank you for sharing your lovely cottage with us! We have had such fun exploring the area, and such a peaceful time here. We wish island-time would last forever.

Aloha dear Babette! We had another amazing stay in your cottage and we were so glad to be here to celebrate your Birthday! Thanks for introducing us to the Sweet Cane Cafe in Hilo - what a great place to eat! We're counting the days until we return! Mahalo until next time,

Dear Babette! Thank you for a wonderful stay Your cottage is very lovely, peaceful & we enjoyed listening to the birds chirping! We will be back someday. God Bless!
G&N, Bay Area, CA, US - February 2022

Happy New Year! Thank you, Babette, for being such a gracious hostess. After backpacking in Volcanoes National Park, your peaceful cottage was a welcome site. We enjoyed the Coqui frogs singing us to sleep each night, the sound of the constant rain on the roof, and we even rescued a freezing gecko that somehow found itself trapped in the fridge. We give this cottage a 5 out of 5 stars!

The most peaceful & beautiful stay!

I had the privilege of staying at this property for one month. I will miss it! Especially the sound of the ocean which can be heard from this cute cottage. The bed is comfortable and I slept so great here. Also, it's QUIET! If you want peace, you found it. The shower is hot with strong water pressure. The mini fridge (with small freezer) met my needs perfectly. The host is so kind and made sure I felt comfortable asking for anything I needed. Checking in was a breeze. I parked and was able to understand the self check-in process easily. Highly, highly recommended. This is a very special location on the Big Island you will enjoy.

An absolutely beautiful cottage.

We stayed the month of January in this lovely cottage. The setting was beautiful, the area was sophisticated and the hostess was knowledgeable about the area. She has a superclean cottage, no bugs or unwanted pests. One cute geckco would visit us occassionally.We will recommend this place to friends and family.

Secluded cottage in paradise

This cute cottage provides a cozy little getaway surrounded by lush jungle views. The nightly nature sounds were so soothing and helped lull us to sleep. At times we could hear the ocean. In just a short walk and climb down the hillside, you will find one of the best black sand beaches we've ever been to (clothing was optional šŸ˜‰). A short walk the other way, there's a cute little shop with some snacks and clothing. The cottage is on the owner's property and behind the house. We had a little difficulty making sure we were in the right place (we arrived late at night) and theres shared parking with the owner in the driveway. It is at least a 25 minute drive to the nearest drug store, but it was so worth it for the privacy and views. The recommendations were spot on, make sure you bring cash for the local markets! If you happen to be visiting on a Wednesday night, Uncle Robert's market down the road provided live music, strong drinks, amazing fresh food and an experience you won't forget. If we're ever back on the big island, we'll definitely be staying there again.

Small but comfortable

We enjoyed our stay here. We are not the type of people who are looking for a lot of frills, just want a comfortable place that is close to the places we want to see. It was about 40 minutes to Volcanoes NP and a very short walk to Kehana Beach. The bed was comfortable, water pressure was good, and the outdoor shower was quite nice. Babette was very friendly and informative.

Peaceful Kalapana Cottage

Babette's cottage had everything we needed to comfortably spend a few days exploring the Hilo side of the Big Island. The location has decent privacy (adjacent properties were mostly obstructed by vegetation), the internet speed was good, and the kitchen/bathroom/bed were exactly as described. We enjoyed sitting outside at night listening to the coqui frogs and star gazing through partly cloudy skies. Overall we had a great time and would definitely stay again. Thanks Babette!

Clean, attentive, and peaceful

Babette was a wonderful hostess during our stay and went above and beyond to ensure that we were comfortable. She provided a lot of useful info for things to do in the area. Babette is very attentive and communicative. The place was clean and comfortable. Just as a warning- the frogs are really loud at night so if youā€™re used to living in the city, you might want bring plugs. My partner grew up in the country so he liked it, but I had trouble sleeping the first night. This place is somewhat off-grid and away from everything while still being in a ā€œneighborhoodā€. There is no cell phone reception but the WiFi worked fine. Also, there is no AC but I found it to be fine with the windows open and the fan on. I liked that it was within walking distance of Kehena beach. If I ever come back to the Big Island, I would stay here again.

Wonderful place to get away - simple, clean, comfortable and close to nature

We had a wonderful visit at the Cottage. We wanted a place to unplug and enjoy the natural aspects of the island. This was perfect, when we wanted quite isolation, all we had to do was take a short stroll through the forest to the spectacular cliffs on the ocean. When we wanted to see the other sites, we drove up the coast or out through the rain forest to take in volcanos, waterfalls, shopping, and dining. Not to mention a gracious host to help out with information and insights. It may not be in the heart of the "tourist action" but it was perfect to enjoy the heart of the island.

Private, well-equipped, comfortable

My husband and I sought a venue away from tourists, shops, noise, traffic, and unnecessaries, like dishwashers, washer/dryers, jacuzzies, restaurants, and vast living space. Oliana Cottage was all of that and more. It was cozy but well equipped. In one room there was a kitchen area, a dining area, a sleeping area, and to the side a bathroom. Towels, extra bedding, utensils, and even snorkel gear were provided. The owner gave us a map of the attractions close by, of which there are many: warm ponds, tidal pools, Lava Tree Park, MacKenzie Park, a black sand beach, and sites of lava flow (pahoehoe). It was also quite close to the road to the viewing site of the active Kilauea lava flow. Frogs serenaded us at night. For anyone seeking to avoid the usual touristy things, this cottage is perfect.

Quiet, comfortable, convenient, 'no-frills' accommodations.

If you're looking for comfortable no-frills accommodations in the Kalapana area, close to lava flow, then this is your place. Babette was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She graciously let us check in early at 3pm instead of the usual 4pm check-in. After hiking to the lava flow at sunrise, it was nice to be able to relax and take a nap. The next morning we took the Lava Ocean Tours boat out of Isaac Hale harbor, a quick 20 min drive from Oliana Cottage, for the sunrise tour to the lava flowing into the ocean. Thank you, Babette!

Perfect for a quiet get away!

Stayed at the cottage overnight after a hike to see the lava flow. Quiet hidden among the trees the cottage was the perfect place after a long hike. The cottage was clean well equipped for our needs. The cottage is priced well without having over the top cleaning fees. Definitely would recommend to any couple that needs a quiet place to stay on the east side of Hawaii to visit here.

Had a great experience overall!! My boyfriend got in late after a long day of hiking and the cottage had everything we needed. It was very clean and organized. The bed was super comfy and we could keep the room cool with the fan and windows. The owner was very kind to us. Pele's Kitchen had an incredible breakfast and was only about 15 mins away. FYI to future stayers, there is really no service out there, but we did have access to the owner's WiFi. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Excellent place to stay

We stayed three nights at Babette's cottage and we had a very pleasant time. Babette is a lovely host. The cottage provides everything you need. I stayed at several places in Hawaii, but Babette's place has a very special, positive atmosphere. At night you are surrounded by birds and frogs who make you relax and lull you to sleep. The cottage has a very bright and sunny atmosphere. You will love spending your time there. It is an excellent choice. Thanks again Babette for hosting us, for answering all our questions and giving us plenty of recommendations for the area! We highly appreciated it!

Cute Cottage

Babette's cottage provided everything that we needed for our stay. The location provides you with a lovely symphony of birds, frogs, and geckos to lull you to sleep. Star gazing from Pahoa area is sublime! The bed is very comfortable. The kitchen supplies for cooking are perfect. There is a burner and little oven, as well as, a microwave. Top it off with the coffee maker and refrigerator and there's nothing you need! The location is perfect for touring Hilo, lava flows in Pahoa, and the end of the road from the previous lava flows. The heated ponds are very close by and Kehena Beach is perfect!

Cozy Kehena Studio

If you are one or two people who want to stay in the Kehena neighborhood, Babette's place is an excellent choice. It is roomy, clean, quiet and feels comfortably secluded. It is very well stocked, and there are showers inside and outside. Babette made herself very available in case I needed anything, but was very respectful of my privacy. It is a short and beautiful walk to the beach.

Stay away!

We have rented many places on VRBO over the years, including several elegant estates, and this is the first bad experience we have had. The studio itself is clean and light, in a lovely area, but Spartan to an extreme. The owner has put minimal effort into furnishing or providing any amenities. The bed is uncomfortable, we had to clear the closet of pots and pans to find a space for our clothes; there is no sink in the bathroom and no storage or shelves for toiletries, and the kitchen is suitable only making coffee. The refrigerator is tiny and has no shelves, there is no stove, and a paltry assortment of pots and pans. All this is minor compared to our two significant issues. The owner came into our place every day when we were not there. She would open our bathroom blinds for some reason, which we kept closed for privacy reasons. Who knows what else she did. We felt very invaded, there is no privacy. And when we were left without power, water or basic sanitation like being able to flush the toilet, due to Hurricane Iselle, the owner charged us a full nightly rate anyway and basically ripped us off. The owner then sent us bizarre emails when we asked for a refund. We were very uncomfortable with our stay there and with Babette the owner. There are many other nicer options in this area. I would steer clear of this place.
