Volcano Kahaualea Cottage, a perfect place to explore the East Side of the Big Island, from the village of Volcano, Hawaii. Retreat from the world in privacy on 3 acres of lush forest.

We've stocked the home for your comfort and use during your stay in Volcano. E Komo Mai (Welcome)!
This cottage is located on a very private forested 3 acres of Hawaiian rainforest. A romantic haven! A centralized location to explore the whole east side and to explore the now open Hawaii Volcano National Park.

Lovely cottage in the jungle
Sylvia C., Boise, ID US
This is a beautiful cottage in a quiet and peaceful setting. Lots of flowers. Interior decor very tasteful. Immaculately clean and all necessary amenities. Very convenient to volcanoes NP. The only disappointment was very slow WiFi but not critical for us.

Perfect volcano stay for two
Mackenzie K., PHOENIX, AZ US
My boyfriend and I stayed here for two nights while visiting Volcano National Park. We loved this place! It was tastefully designed and felt cozy. The fireplace was a great touch. The bathroom and shower were nice. We were also happy to have a washer and dryer. They have a fairly well stocked kitchen other than no coffee when we first got there. Everything was clean and in working order. The rainforest is loud at night but we did not mind it. The WiFi was very spotty and there is no internet out there otherwise, so be mindful if you require constant internet for any reason. We were unable to load Netflix, Hulu, etc at times. We would definitely stay here again and overall highly recommend this as the perfect volcano stay for two!
Manager's Response
Mahalo for your review, Mackenzie. We're happy to hear that you enjoyed snuggling up at Kahaualea Cottage :-) Due to the remote location, the wifi here works but it is not super strong - that's a good tip for future guests. We'd love to host you again, anytime, so please keep us in mind if your travels bring you back to Volcano!

Beautiful Cottage
Recent Guest, Fisher, WV US
We absolutely loved our stay. The home was emaculate; very clean. The kitchen is nice. It had everything needed to prepare meals, which we did each day we were there. We fell asleep each night listening to the frogs and rain hitting the tin roof. We had a very nice stay!

Pleasant Cottage In the rainforest...
Cary L., La Mirada, CA Unknown
We had a great Christmas and New Years Eve at Volcano Kahaualea Cottage. The Christmas gift basket was great, the cottage was neat and tidy. The staff was courteous and helpful. we loved having the washer, dryer unit to do our laundry so we had one less thing to do after an overnight flight home.
To have such wonderful peace and quiet made the stay very relaxing. The view of the forest in every direction was breath taking. The location is great for visiting the Hilo area and Volcano National Park.
Go and have a great stay!

Lovely location
Lenny M., Kihei, HI US
Absolutely fantastic place! Exactly as pictured. The kitchenware was not clean and we had to wash everything prior to using it. That was the only negative of our two days there. If that could be addressed, we would certainly stay again. We live on maui and plan to continue spend our thanksgivings in volcano.
Manager's Response
Mahalo nui for your review, Lenny. We're so happy you enjoyed your visit, and are very sorry that you found dirty items in the kitchen. Please remember that if you have any issue during your stay all you have to do is let us know and we will send someone to address it! I've let our housekeeping manager know so she can have her cleaners check the dishes that are put away. We hope to host you on future Thanksgiving visits to Volcano!!

Jungle escape
Julia P., Burlington, VT US
Wonderful little place in the middle of the cloud forest close to the Volcano National Park. This little cottage is made for two, but worked very well for 2 as well. It is so carefully put together, with a bit of luxury that is an interesting contrast to the wild forest surrounding. Place was clean, in great condition, contacting manager was easy, I'd go there again.

Quiet, Cozy Jungle Cottage
Daniel J., Portland , OR US
The cottage is tucked in the jungle and is very quiet. All you hear are the coqui frogs or the occasional wild pig grunting. It was clean and cozy. The gas fireplace is nice on cool evenings. Great jump off point to explore Volcano NP, which is less than 10 minutes away.

Honeymoon Trip
Justin S., N/A, CO United States
How many "wow's" can one fit into a review? This cabin was incredible! You literally felt like you were in a rainforest every morning - because you will be! It's luscious green everywhere, with wildlife that walks right up to the back door. This was my husband's and I third and final spot during our honeymoon and the tranquility of this cabin was undeniable. We stopped into Hilo to do some light shopping on the second day and that was an enjoyable short drive. Along with the volcano park tour we took! Beautiful secluded stay!
Manager's Response
Mahalo for your review, Justin, and for choosing us for your very special visit. Kahaualea Cottage is such a sweet, romantic spot - perfect to finish up a honeymoon!! CONGRATS on your marriage, and we'll hope to host you for an anniversary some day :-)

Great for Quick Stay Around Volcanoes National Park
Recent Guest, Georgetown, TX US
Wonderful rainforest experience near Volcano. Had a great time. Property manager highly responsive, property well-appointed. Be aware that you're in the rain forest and treat/plan accordingly -- it takes a few minutes to lock up and leave, the road is unfinished, and Volcano isn't open 24/7. The internet isn't as fast as it is in other places, and that's ok. Highly recommend if you're looking for a place to jump to Volcanoes National Park.

Volcano Cottage
Recent Guest, UPPER ARLINGTON, Ohio United States
This rental house was great. We really enjoyed the secluded spot and proximity to the volcano. One thing that we did not enjoy was the "cute family of pigs" on the property. We were told about the pigs, but were unaware they enjoyed being under the house and are semi-nocturnal. They woke us up several times during our two night stay. The house itself was amazing, and there isn't much you can do about wildlife, but it may be worth asking about the pig status before you book if you are a sensitive sleeper. Internet was also not great if you plan to use it for work or streaming.
Manager's Response
Thanks for the review and we're glad you enjoyed the house! We are always doing what we can to push the wild pigs away from the property. Aloha, The Salt Water Hawaii Crew

Review
Recent Guest, Grayling, MI US
Nice setting....very private. Only issue was washing machine was inoperable. Upon inquiry, the property manager said she had communicated a couple weeks before our arrival that machine did not work. Upon checking my email I found the email she referenced but it didn’t mention machine. Other than that miscommunication all other communications were prompt and clear. We had a short stay, so it wasn’t a big deal. Good welcoming book instructions and directions to the place.
Manager's Response
Thanks for letting us know about the miscommunication Monte, we have corrected our process. The washing machine is being replaced April 27, 2022. We are sorry it was inoperable for your stay. Appliance shortages on Hawaii Island have made replacements take longer than normal. Mahalo for staying with us and glad you enjoyed the House Book! Aloha, The Salt Water Hawaii Crew
Beautiful property

Very nice property in rain forest. House is beautiful. Very nice interior and has everything needed. Wi Fi is bit slow but it’s not a big issue . Host is very helpful and responding . Might use some motion light outside

Cozy little cottage
Recent Guest, Weaverville, NC US
We enjoyed our stay. Cottage was clean, secluded and private. Having a real kitchen was great. Plenty of hot water, comfortable bed. Internet was spotty and sheets/towels were a little musty, but it's a damp environment. Location near Volcanoes NP was perfect for us!

Cool Place!
Bryan M., N/A, CO United States
We loved our time here. This was our last place on a six week, four island trip and was the perfect ending spot for us. The location gave us easy access to Volcano National Park which is an amazing place to explore for days and the little town of Volcano is close for food and supplies (Kilauea Lodge and the Thai food truck highly recommended). We did go to the top of Mauna Kea from here which made for a long day but the drive, by way of Hilo, was an easy one with little traffic. The place itself is really special too. It's very modern, comfortable, open and spacious with so many windows you feel like you're outside in the jungle but safely sheltered. It's very quiet and peaceful here. The surrounding jungle with the huge ferns and Ohi'a trees seem very primitive and native Hawaiian. You almost expect a dinosaur to walk past the window. You see a lot of nature here too including pigs and Kalij pheasants and wild orchids and other exotic flowers. Just a wonderful place. Mahalo
Manager's Response
Mahalo nui for your review, Bryan. We love it when guests really get into the experience of our unique and amazing area. Come back any time - maybe during dinosaur season ;-)

William B., N/A, CO United States
We loved our stay at the Volcano Kahaualea Cottage! Very nice and clean with a great kitchen. Good for cooking at home since Hilo is a bit of a drive. Volcano Park is only a few minutes away and we were so excited to get to see the lava at both day and night. Highly recommend this stay!

The cottage is in a very peaceful setting. There are other houses nearby but quite far away. You have to purposefully look for them to see them and didn't hear anything from any of them. Great location for exploring Volcanoes National Park and the south side of the island. The frogs can be a bit loud at night but if it bothers you turn on the dehumidifier. That drowns them out nicely. Had a great stay and hope to return someday.
