Volcano Rainforest Estate & Lodge; 5 miles to National Park; Hot Tub; 3 BR/3BA<br>11-3203 Huakai Street, Volcano, HI, 96785, United States

ENTIRE HOUSE RENTAL; YOUR PARTY WILL BE THE ONLY GUESTS ON THE NINE ACRE PROPERTY.
The Volcano Rainforest Lodge is a luxury craftsman house in an ancient forest.
We are located only a few minutes from the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park main entrance near Kilauea summit and the friendly artists community of Volcano Village. Volcano Rainforest Lodge is located in a secluded, private, 9-acre forest estate. Each room is designed to view the forest and lava outcroppings.

The Lodge was designed with privacy in mind. No other guests will be on the property during your visit. The house is located on an extremely quiet, 3-acre lot. The 3-acre lots on either side have been acquired to allow for additional peace and quiet.

This Lodge has 2,300 square feet, on one level with three bedroom/bathroom suites, gourmet kitchen, living room with lava rock fireplace, 16' x 20' dining room, laundry room and over 1,400 square feet of covered, outside living area (lanai) with comfortable seating. The home has three staircases which access the main level. The rear staircase has only four steps. A guest favorite - " The "hot tub under the stars" is behind the dining room lanai.

The Lodge has three king bedroom suites. With advance notice, one suite can be arranged with two twin beds. We also have two roll-away twin beds an inflatable twin bed, a Pack-N-Play, and a crib for larger groups and groups with younger children.

The Lodge has Mango flooring, and door/window trim. Mango is also used in the bathroom cabinets and mirror frames. The doors are solid core knotty Alder. The ceilings are beautiful Canadian Pine with Red Western Cedar beams from Oregon. Counter tops in the Lodge are granite. Bathroom walls and floors are gauged Quartzite.

This beautiful home provides all the elements to make your vacation on the Big Island a memorable experience.

The Lodge is like a breath of fresh air amidst the beautiful forest of Ohias and Hapu'u tree ferns; a quiet place to relax and unwind, while being located close to the various adventures in the area.

Each of the suites has a big screen, ultra high definition, smart TV, private lanai, and a keyed exterior door, The lodge has super high speed fiber optic internet service.

The Lodge is available for weddings, parties, and corporate events.

Magical Rainforest Stay
Loved this beautiful, handcrafted home tucked into an amazing rainforest. Loads of space for 4 adults and 2 children. Sitting outside listening to the night sounds of the rainforest was unforgettable. This house has lots of interesting artwork—so I will say that if you have an inquisitive 4-year-old in your group, you will have to keep vigilant watch!! Getting to the national park and Hilo was easy.

Five Star Plus
This house deserves more stars than 5. The one category that I rated 4 stars was website accuracy because the photos don’t do it justice, from the house itself to the magnificent views from inside each window. Our family group consisted of a five year old, his parents and one set of grandparents and each of us loved this place. We appreciated the cleanliness, comfort and beauty of the setting. There is a lovely wraparound porch and, as the description says, each bedroom has its own bathroom. Beds are comfy and bedding provides warmth for the cold nights. The managers are always accessible and provided immediate help with a couple of issues. The first was with the WiFi, which once reset properly worked great. The second was the water heater which gave up the ghost our last full day. Water heaters don’t last forever and we just happened to be there when this one gave out so we had no hot water for showers or dishwashing that day. We very much appreciate the way this was handled by the managers and owners. I should also note that we discovered that at least two of the bathrooms have on-demand water heaters under the sinks so there was still access to some hot water. There is a lot to see on the big island and we plan to be back. We hope to be able to stay in this house again next time we visit.

Gorgeous Home in the Rain Forest
Driving into the short private drive up to the house was like driving onto the set of Indian Jones or Jurassic Park without the dinosaurs. Pulling up to the house itself revealed a gorgeous well furnished home with attention to details. Tropical woods throughout, and well equipped modern kitchen, and three large bedrooms each with an on sweat bathroom. Huge picture windows look onto a beautifully landscaped tropical garden. Everything you see on VRBO is what you see in person. We enjoyed dipping in the hot tub each evening and morning before setting off on our daily adventures. The town of Hilo is about a 30 minute drive away and local dining options in Volcano are few, but on the plus side you are just minutes away from the Volcano National Park. That is the only minor draw back to this location.

Idyllic retreat
We had an amazing time at the Volcano lodge. The house is spacious and well-equipped. We cooked and had family meals for our 3-generation trip. But more unique, the home is super private and serene. Every room looks out on greenery and we loved sitting on the wrap-around porch. At night, we could hear the chirping of the coqui frogs. You are very near the national park, and less than an hour from Hilo to the East and green sand and black sand beaches to the West. Only word of caution is that the town of Volcano itself is very small. There are a couple of places to eat and a very small store, but choice is very limited so best to plan ahead. We had a wonderful meal at the Kailua Lodge nearby.

Volcano Rainforest Lodge was the best! We got in after 5pm, loaded in and was so happy to have a cup of tea and relax in the hot tub under a peaceful starry sky. This hale is simply perfect for a retreat, and gathering place where we ate made lei, relaxed in the house and outside on the huge porch. Every space was perfect. The rooms were gorgeous with amazing showers and easy access to the outdoors. As we prepared to share our hula my students were able to gather with me to create their lei and oractice our hula for Pele at the volcano hula pa. Everythig was perfect here...we even got to bird watch from the porch. Mahalo nui e Rain Forest Lodge Hale. We'll see you again🌸❤

Beautiful secluded house in the rainforest
My family stayed here in late May. Communication with the owners/managers prior to coming was excellent and the directions for check in were easy to follow. The house is pretty secluded. You won’t see our hear anyone else. The only sounds are of nature. We enjoyed sitting on the large deck in the evening to listen to the frogs. Every morning the Hawaiian pheasant would visit us while we drank our coffee. The grounds are beautiful with lots on flowers and tropical plants. The outdoor hot tub was great after a long day. The house was just as expected. It’s beautiful. There was plenty of room for everyone. The house is really close to the entrance to Volcanoes National Park making it an ideal base for exploring that area. Overall we were very happy and would highly recommend it.

A comfortable visit to a rain forest like setting
April 2024 - Family of 4 adults - 3 night stay - This stay was the second half of a one week vacation in Hawaii. First four days were in busy and exciting Honolulu. This location was a nice period of relaxation before heading back to our daily lives. The location is a little remote, with a 30 minute drive to civilization. Close to the volcano national park and an 90 minute drive to 9,000 foot overlook. We visited in the shoulder season so it was a little cool in the mornings. The fireplace was a nice place to huddle while warming the house up. Rainy days were nice to watch and enjoy from the patios. The jungle like setting was very serene. Hosts communicated well prior to arrival and thankfully we had no reason to contact them during our stay. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks
