TreeHouse in canopy of trees

1 site · Lodging3 acres · Mountain View, HI

Learn more about this land:Aloha,I built the treehouse to be a very romantic hideaway for myself and my honey, and now that I'm renting it out, the couples and families who have stayed here, including many honeymooners have appreciated the romance of the setting and ambiance. (In fact, we had considered calling it KamaSutreehouse when setting up the website!.) It's not just romantic though it's really fun for the kids. The setting is so private, surrounded by such natural beauty that one cannot help but be inspired. My favorite romantic details are the fireplace and the bed perched high up in the loft where you're surrounded by windows looking out at the moon and stars at night and native trees, birds and cloud formations by day, the low ceilinged double futon bed approached by inside later ( which is mostly for kids) and also accessible by crawling under the Master Bed ( about 5 feet up). The Sky-Walk 90 feet out into the forest is the latest whimsical and fun additions. The location is great it's very private and quiet, hidden in the rainforest yet it's only 3 miles from Volcano Village and 5 miles from the park entrance. Some guests a never leave the Treehouse. The TreeHouse is at 2860 feet above sea level, plus 20 ft. for the TreeHouse, and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is at a little over 4000 feet above seas level for the viewing of the glow from the vent at a mile distance, on the edge of the crater. For the most comprehensive information about the island and local area, I recommend the book, The Big Island Revealed. The main attraction locally, of course, is Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and the hiking thru lava fields, lava tubes and even across the floors of craters. Volcano Village is well known as a premier artist colony and is home to many scientists, as well. Hilo is 25 miles away and has many attractions, including a new, state of the art astronomy museum that shouldn't be missed. And of course the Island is surrounded by beautiful blue ocean and all the activities that go with that.

Community Healing Hub

2 sites · Lodging, Tents1 acre · Pahoa, HI

Our retreat property is in a walkable neighborhood with 3 yoga studios nearby one mile to the ocean, 1.5 miles to the best beach on Big Island, and a short drive to many tide pools and a volcanic hot spring on the beach. Our center is part of HIVE Hawaii (you can research us online) where we host co-living, co-working, and co-healing programs, and encourage folks to join us who resonate with our vision for Healing Inspiring Village Experiences (HIVE).

Waterfall And Cave Cabin

2 sites · Lodging4 acres · Laupahoehoe, HI

Experience the peace and healing of a full nature immersion at our off-grid bungalow, surrounded by the beautiful jungle. Enjoy private access to a river beach and swimming spot, complete with caves to explore, rocks to jump off, and further downstream, a breathtaking 100+ foot waterfall cascading into the ocean. The bathroom, equipped with hot water, is just a short stroll from the cabin. Access down to the river, located 15 yards below, is facilitated by ropes and rock stairs, making it one of the easier streams to reach on the island. The location is ideal, situated only an hour from the world-renowned Hapuna Beach, 35 minutes from Waipio Valley, and just 25 minutes from Hilo. Additionally, it's even closer to many beautiful attractions up and down the Hamakua Coast. Nevertheless, many guests find that simply staying on the property and relishing the peace and tranquility of the space provides a truly restorative vacation experience. This place is perfect for nature-loving couples or solo travelers seeking a secluded retreat. Important to Note: Please refrain from bringing heavy luggage, and if you have any physical injuries or conditions that may make traversing stairs and uneven terrain difficult, this may not be the ideal location for you. Access to the bungalow is via a jungle path, which is uneven and requires a bit of a distance from the parking area. A rental car is necessary, as the property is approximately 25-30 minutes north of Hilo, and public transportation/taxi service is very limited on the island. There is limited cell phone service (though good wifi) at the property entrance, so it's essential to arrange arrival time and check-in with the property hosts ahead of time. Arrival well before dark is recommended, as navigating in the jungle becomes challenging after sunset. Thank you for your understanding.
