Waterfalls cascade through lush rainforest just minutes from downtown, where you'll find the best farmers market on the Big Island. Visit Rainbow Falls early morning when mist creates actual rainbows, then explore the Japanese gardens at Liliuokalani Park during low tide.
"My parents and I rented the cottage for four nights. This was absolutely perfect for our needs and we slept really well. We were able to park our rental car with no problem and the area is loaded with things to see, and do. Restaurants nearby, as well as shopping in town. Many of our stops were 3 to 7 minutes away from the property. This is a much better location than staying up by Volcano. Under 10 minutes to the airport but noise wasn't an issue. Staff was super friendly and flexible to meet our needs. Definitely would recommend to those in a small group that don't want to be separated by rooms in a hotel. "
"This has been one of the most special places I’ve ever been to. The sounds of the forest at night are surreal and can touch your soul. I’ve only spent one night at the cabin but I will never forget my time here.
The cabins are super cute, clean, and comfortable. The short path to the lodge with bathrooms is marked by some torches on the ground at night. The sky cleared up in the middle of the night so I could enjoy the stars while walking to the lodge. AMAZING."
"This is a great place. Every staff member was friendly and helpful. The place was clean and cleaned daily.
My only regret is that I didn’t stay longer. I switched sides of the Big Island and probably didn’t need to.
Would definitely recommend. "
