Paradise only gets better
This was our second trip to this property and time & the owner's pride in it has only made it better. We never tire of visiting Kilauea when we visit the Big Island and Jim's lodging is only about a mile from the entrance to Volcanoes National Park. Its when you end the day however, that his place is special. It is literally in a living garden of tropical plants. To look out the window and see anthuriums, if only those as there are far more types of flowers, is wondrous. A walk through his gardens will confirm that his hideaway is truly a Hawaiian paradise.

Family Visit
Jim’s place is great for us when visiting family in the area. This is our 2nd time staying and we enjoyed it as much as our first. It’s a few minutes from Volcano National Park, and lovely cafes.

Absolutely beautiful garden paths to stroll on at the property. Relaxing. The host, Jim, was very helpful & cordial. He provided excellent directions to guide us to his VRBO. He also gave us suggestions of places to visit in the area.

Great stay!
Perfect spot to relax after an extended day exploring the volcano park. The grounds are truly beautiful to walk. The space itself is well-kept with a great kitchenette to prepare the basics. Lovely touches like coffee/tea available to make the stay even more special.

An excellent spot to explore Volcano National Park
We had a great stay at this spacious, charming home. Check in was super-simple and we had a chance to explore both the stunning gardens on-site and pop over to the National Park on the evening we arrived. The kitchenette was perfect for warming up dinner and having coffee in the morning. The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed sleeping to the sound of rain outside. Highly recommended!

Just great stay
The studio was perfect. It was very clean and the service was unmatched. It’s a great location if you’re visiting VNP and Punalu U beach - black sand beach.

Terrific & Interesting Two Days
The area of Volcanos National Park is fascinating and being so close to the action is valuable. Volcano Village is small and quirky which suits our style of travel. Jim’s home is comfortable, inviting, and includes even more than just the necessities. The electric bed warmer was delicious and the small space heater necessary for the cool, damp weather we had. A dehumidifier would be a welcome addition. The gardens are spectacular and their history very interesting. Check out both if you stay and try to chat with Jim if you can as we were lucky enough to do.

Rainforest retreat close to Volcano Park
A little off the beaten path via a one lane road but the rainforest garden was beautiful. The bed was king-size with an electric heating under the sheets. Didn't use it since the space heater was enough to heat up the room before shutting it off while sleeping. It was close to Volcano park and we checked out early to get to the park by 7am for hiking. We skipped the shower which was pretty barebones which we probably didn't have time for anyway.
