Cozy Up by the Fire on 5 Serene Volcano Acres

Summary:

Serene 5-acre tropical hideaway with lanai and circular wood-burning fireplace



The Space:

Nestled on five acres of rainforest, Hale Hapu'u is a serene two-bedroom, three-bath hideaway home in Volcano Village. This family-friendly home has a lodge-like feel with a wood-burning fireplace, a spacious lounge area, and an idyllic lanai. Intricate details adorn the interior, including imported woodwork and fine glass and stone finishes. Take in the relaxing ambiance of the tropical foliage while lounging on the lanai, or simply enjoy an alfresco meal with a view. Nearby attractions include local art galleries, a golf course, and Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. Unwind in the open living area on a sleeper sectional and two armchairs. A lounge area features a sleeper sofa, large window seats, and a flat-screen TV. At the center of the home is a large wood-burning fireplace, allowing you to enjoy the warm glow from all living spaces. Tucked under the stairs is a kid-friendly hideaway, stocked with books and cozy decor. Whip up meals in the open kitchen, complete with a suite of appliances. The bar is fully equipped with tools and supplies for mixing drinks. Sip coffee at the breakfast bar for two. Serve dinner at the table set for six.





This two-story house sleeps eight guests in two spacious bedrooms and two queen-size sleeper sofas in the living area. Partially open to the living room below, the lofted primary bedroom has a king bed and an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower and dual vanities. The second bedroom has a California king bed, a flat-screen TV, and a bistro table for two. Curl up in the armchair while enjoying the glow of the gas stove. The en-suite bathroom has an impressive glass walk-in shower with views of the tropical foliage outside. Just off the kitchen, a third bathroom has a tub/shower combination. Tropical foliage borders the spacious backyard creating a private paradise. Dine alfresco on the covered lanai, where a table for four awaits. End perfect days with a crisp beverage while relaxing on the lanai. Use the complimentary Wi-Fi and a washer/dryer during your stay.

This is a beautiful home. It has every kitchen item you could imagine; the beds are comfortable; and the living space is quite large so everyone was comfortable lounging around. The back porch is gorgeous and a great place to enjoy the scenery of the rain forest property.

Other than some spider webs on the inside of the upstairs windows, there isn't anything we didn't like about this rental.

Luxury cabin in the rainforest

This place is amazing for winding down a few days surrounded by a lush rainforest. We did have a lot of rain but it didn't bother us since the house is so great.
