About this property

Enjoy peaceful Big Island Hawaii in a Contemporary Hawaiian Bed & Breakfast set in a Tropical Rainforest directly outside Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park. The custom designed & built Craftsman Cottage style home features artisan beds with fine linens, private baths, cozy fireplaces and a tropical breakfast.

We are nestled in a native Hawaiian rain forest in Mauna Loa Estates with giant ferns and Ohia trees in the storybook arts community of Volcano Village.

The Royal Orchid Suite is named for the wild orchids you will see growing both in our rainforest and in the nearby Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. The Suite is a private large master suite situated away from the main part of the house, with views of the native fern rainforest. The room features a handcrafted rattan King bed with elegant tropical bedding, and a gas fireplace. For a thoroughly romantic and relaxing evening, the Royal Orchid Suite room has a Jacuzzi style tub. French doors lead to an outdoor deck where you can sit and enjoy the fragrant smell of wild forest ginger or exotic tuberoses, or just take in views of the magical rainforest. A collection of Hawaiian botanical prints and original artwork delight and soothe the spirit.

Gas grill available on request.

Lava Pond Lodge Bed & Breakfast is located in the storybook village of Volcano Hawai'i, a community of artists, writers and scientists. We are secluded in the forest yet just 5 minutes from the entrance of Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park with its spectacular hiking trails, scenic vistas and lava viewing. Volcano is 27 miles from the Hilo airport and 96 miles from Kailua- Kona.

We loved this Bnb in Volcano. The host had great communication, left thoughtful touches like snacks, water, umbrellas, torches for night viewing the Volcano lava. The highlight of our stay was the breakfasts - they were so generous! Delicious fruits, yoghurt, muffins, bagels, cooked breakfast. Our chats with Rhonda were wonderful - she made us feel like family. She learnt from us, and we learnt from her. She gave us tips where to go each day. This was by far our best BnB experience we've had, and highly recommend it to others. Location was also great - only 5 mins from Volcanoes National Park. We'll be back here some day ... it was a real highlight for us.

A rain forest paradise

My wife and I stayed here while visiting Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park and it was our first experience at a B&B. The host made a wonderful breakfast and her place is a gem that is only minutes from HVNP. The host also gave us great recommendations for the area and the park as well.

Volcanoes Stay

We enjoyed staying at this beautiful B & B near volcanoes national park. The property manager was traveling but left the home in good hands with Rhonda answering our many questions and filling us in on local sights. Breakfast was hearty and kept us going all day.

All the comforts of home

Great location to visit Volcanos National Park. Breakfast each morning was amazing. Lots of activities to do in that area. Only thing missing is the sunshine but you're in the rain forest. Lots of vegetation and birds.

Wonderful Place!

Sarah was wonderful. Great breakfast every day and great advice as well. What a nice couple days on the "wet" side while we visited the Volcanoes and had a great time. Thanks! We will come again if we come to the Island again!

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Ochoa

We purchased the Lava Pond Lodge in early January 2021 and we are extremely excited for what this endeavor has instore for us. We are leaving the property for the most part unchanged and only making minor updates here and there. Why change a good thing if it is working, right?

During these uncertain times we are very COVID minded and echo the messaging on the Big Island. We are going to great lengths to keep our 'ohana safe and are Covid Compliant. As our guests you are a part of our ohana (family) and we want you to be comfortable and safe when you visit us.

Our goal is to continue to build onto the great reputation that the Lava Pond Lodge is known and adored for. Warm and friendly hosts, breath taking surrounds and convenient location to nearby sites. We are also looking at becoming closer with community and culture as we establish and grow our ohana on the Big Island. We support local businesses and will always give back where we can when we can.

Why they chose this property

Having visited the Big Island and the Lava Pond Lodge Bed & Breakfast in Volcano on our honeymoon we fell in love with Hawai'i and the property and community.

Lava Pond Lodge Bed & Breakfast is located in the storybook village of Volcano Hawai'i, a community of artists, writers and scientists. We are secluded in the forest yet just 5 minutes from the entrance of Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park with its spectacular hiking trails, scenic vistas and lava viewing. Volcano is 27 miles from the Hilo airport and 96 miles from Kailua- Kona.

What makes this property unique

While the biggest attraction to the area is certainly Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park there are also many other reasons to visit this area of the big island. The rainforest makes this a very unique area. Visit the Volcano Art Center Gallery and catch a live hula performance. Witness the magic of authentic native Hawaiian dance and storytelling. Choose a class from their schedule of creative arts workshops, writing, Hawaiian culture & nature workshops for all ages.

We suggest wine tasting at the Volcano Winery, a trip to Rainbow Falls, a 80” tall waterfall, exploring the Kaumana Caves, enjoy the amazing views of the ocean and valley from Waipi'o lookout or hiking on Mauna Kea. One of our favorite weekend activities is seeing the Sea Turtles at Punalu'u Black Sand Beach which is a 38 minute drive from the lodge. Hilo also offers helicopter rides to view the beauty of the Island from above. I highly recommend the once-in-a-lifetime open door helicopter adventure.
