Exotic garden cottage at amazing volcanic fissure
Escape to our cozy and romantic gem nestled in the heart of paradise. Our garden cottage is a stunning specimen of natural beauty located between magnificent Volcano National Park and the historic town of Hilo. Provides easy access to both attractions.
The stunning fissure, created by the earth-moving power of volcanic lava, is just one of the many impressive features of our property. The nurturing tropical rain and sun have created the legendary Ohia tree, which has been standing for hundreds of years. Our garden is also home to a variety of palm trees, layers of magical mosses, exotic tropical flowers, ferns, and succulents, all coming together to create a beautiful serene and inviting atmosphere for you.
Our cottage is designed to erase the division between indoor and outdoor living. Immerse yourself in the beautiful nature that surrounds you, and let the orchestra of birds greet you every morning. Enjoy the pure refreshing air and the tropical rain patting on the roof as you drift off to sleep to the soothing sound of coqui frogs chirping.
While our cabin is rustic, we have ensured that all modern creature comforts are provided. Unplug and enjoy the ultimate luxury of life - beautiful nature, with your loved one by your side. Our one-of-a-kind outdoor rain shower is created with a hundreds-year-old Ohia log and large, smooth lava pebble stones, surrounded by all kinds of succulents and tropical plants.
After a long day of exploring, unwind and relax in front of the outdoor fire pit under the starry sky, surrounded by solar tiki lights and fairy lights. Have a delicious BBQ dinner in your secluded private garden, and appreciate the precious moments of life.

Excellent Stay at Unique Property
My partner and I loved this very unique property. The outdoor shower, and being totally surrounded by nature, listening to the coqui frogs at night, and enjoying a fire in the evening. Would definitely recommend for a tranquil setting!

Gorgeous garden property
We had a lovely stay! The garden is perfectly serene and secluded. Everything was clean. The outdoor shower is AMAZING. The check-in process was extremely easy, though we did have to reach out to the host to confirm the process. We would have loved sheets on the bed in addition to the blankets. All in all, an absolutely wonderful stay.

Lovely outdoor-ish stay
We arrived to this lovely property in the afternoon. The host was very prompt with communication replies. The property itself was great. Lovely weather - it rained at night, but the covered walkway from the bedroom to the bathroom and kitchen kept us dry. The hot water outdoor shower was very nice. We used the coffee machine to make coffee. The internet was fast and usable for remote work. There is a little fridge we used to cool drinks. The queen size bed was very comfortable and clean.
I would highly recommend staying here. We would definitely visit again. Thanks!

Not Enough Superlatives to Describe this!
My son wanted a place deep in nature as close to the volcano as possible - for a whole month. Boy am I glad I found this place! It was wonderful. Clean. The forest is magical. Animals are welcome. The host Katherine is wonderful. She was available at all times. She is above and beyond helpful and nice. She really cares. She was excellent answering many, many questions before the stay. The experience was far better than words and pictures can do.

Breathtaking!!
After a day at Volcano National Park-we had the privilege of staying in this amazing garden oasis! We easily found the property (during the daylight) and settled in. Left for dinner at Dimple Cheek and returned at dusk. The garden became even more beautiful! You can see the love and care the owners have poured into this garden! The nighttime sounds and solar string lights made this unique experience even better! If you’re looking for something different and above the ordinary- we highly recommend you choose this location!! We hope to return!
