If it's serenity you need, or adventure you crave, Lazy Lehua Cottage is the perfect place. The native birds will serenade you while you drink your early morning tea or coffee. Float suspended in a hammock chair on one of the 3 lanai's while gazing out to the abundant rainforest that hosts gigantic Hapu'u ferns, magnificent Lehua flowering Ohia trees and aromatic ginger. Many people visit Volcano National Park just to experience the Rainforests, so what better way to experience them than to spend the night at Lazy Lehua.

Lazy Lehua Cottage is located 2 miles from Volcano Village where restaurants, galleries, winery, golf course and Sunday Famers Market can all be found. Volcano is a beautiful little artist community and great resting spot for seeing the east side of the island with it's rainforest, orchid gardens, winery, hiking trails, waterfalls, black sand beaches and farmers markets -- it's simply an amazing place. World Famous Hawaii Volcano National Park is 3 miles away, a must for your trip to the Big Island.

The Big Island offers many unforgettable experiences. Volcano makes for a great place to stay to visit the surrounding area. In Hawaii Volcano National Park, you can walk through a giant lava tube, hike through unforgettable rain forests, steaming craters, or see what Kilauea Volcano is creating today; one of the only place's in the world you will experience new land being created. Check out Punalu’u beach, the Big Islands most famous black sand beach. Swim in the pristine waters where sea turtles swim, rest and lay their eggs in the beautiful black sand, a 30 minute drive. If coffee is what you crave, visit Ka'u Coffee Mill in Pahala and see coffee being grown and produced on the Island. Visit old historic downtown Hilo, only 30 minutes away. Walk through the beautiful Hawaii Tropical Botanical Gardens, or to hike to the many waterfalls.

Awaiting you when you get back to the Lazy Lehua Cottage, your home away from home, is a serene cottage for you to catch your breath and rejuvenate. Soak your sore muscles in our 2 person master bedroom jetted tub over looking the beautiful rainforest just outside your window. Exactly what you need after your day of exploration on the Big Island. You'll be rejuvenated and ready for more adventures.

Lazy Lehua Cottage was lovingly built in 2004. The idea for Lazy Lehua Cottage was to make it a special place for guests to stay and relax. Focus was on putting as much character, charm and soul in to it and making it a whimsical, beautiful place for everyone to enjoy. Trees were hand cut and property cleared only enough to put Lazy Lehua Cottage in its perfect place. The beautiful Ohia trees that unfortunately had to be cut down were used for the posts on the lanais giving it, its whimsical cottage look that blends in well with the rain forest. In keeping in the spirit of whimsical, some of the furniture throughout the cottage was hand crafted; coffee table, bar top and headboard on bed all using local, exotic and native woods. Our property is unique as we use our home often and we visit frequently so it is kept in immaculate condition! We know you'll feel the magical spirit of the house when you stay here.

We have always been recognized for our cleanliness. Because your safety and comfortability are our top PRIORITIES, we have enhanced our cleaning and sanitizing procedures even more. We are following the guidelines set forth by the CDC and AHLA (American Hotel and Lodging Association) for cleaning and disinfecting to ensure a Safe Stay. We will continue to do what it takes to make sure that you remain confident with your choice to enjoy a relaxing and safe stay at Lazy Lehua Cottage.

Lazy Lehua Cottage Reviews

My family and I stayed here over new years. The property was exactly as presented - it's a clean, charming cottage tucked away in rainforest, with only one other neighbor visible from the property. Every morning we heard a variety of birds and saw a couple of passing pheasants. One the other side of the highway are a few restaurants, small grocery stores and a gas station. The cottage was very well stocked and clean. It worked well for two adults and two small children. As mentioned elsewhere it can be pretty cool but the fireplaces help, and there are thick blankets - it's not hard to get comfortable. It was one of the highlights of our stay on the Big Island.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming cabin in the rainforest. It was clean, uniquely decorated & well appointed. Its location was ideal for our excursions to Volcano National Park and Hilo area. Would highly recommend!

Everything about our stay was spot on! Well stocked, convenient location to Volcano National Park and super quite! It was one of the few places we have been on Vacation where I could have just lounged around in the rain forest. Communication with the owner was great and easy. We hope to be back some day!!! A+ VRBO experience!!!

We loved the cottage. Everything was clean and fully equipped. The location was amazing. It was a perfect place to get rest after all day of exploring the Island. We loved the interior design and bedful rainforest scenery out of the window. We definitely recommend the place.

The cottage was just as lovely as in the pictures. It was super clean, and the upstairs and downstairs created some privacy. The space is thoughtfully laid out, and the location is excellent. It's a beautiful spot, and also very close to the national park.

The Lazy Lehua cottage was absolutely beautiful. It was very well stocked, extremely clean and a joy to spend a couple of days in. The cottage was nestled in the rainforest, surrounded by lush vegetation, which was home to a chorus of birds to sing you to sleep each night. It was probably the nicest place I have stayed in my travels over the years...a wonderful combination of rustic with beauty and comfort. We went for a walk a couple of times and found the neighbours very friendly. It was very well situated on the doorstep of Volcanoes National Park. Thank you Stacey!!

We spent 3 days in this lovely place to explore the Volcanoes, and truly had the experience of a lifetime! On the morning of the second day (June 7), our host Stacey messaged that Kīlauea had begun erupting earlier in the morning. We left immediately and were at the overview around 6 am. What a sight! Only few people were around then and we got to chat with some locals who shared their knowledge of the volcano (and where to go to see it a night --which was truly amazing). The cottage is absolutely lovely, secluded and private yet minutes from the National Park. The kitchen has all the essentials and it is so nice that there were supplies of different spices, coffee filters etc. Because of the proximity to the park, we were able to hike the Kïlauea Iki Trail early in the morning, and were largely alone on the trail, another unique experience! Would stay again here anytime.

This was our first vacation to Hawai’i so we had premonitions but weren’t exactly sure what to expect. We arrived in the dark and although the directions were correct we somehow got a bit turned around. It was just so dark and secluded that we missed the our turn. The neighborhood was nothing like we’ve ever seen. It is so dark at night that it was hard to tell if it was at the right place when we arrived. It is so secluded and *quiet( human neighbors) that you would not even know there are people within miles. As for the non-human neighbors (birds) I was really surprised at how noisy they were in the evening and ALL night long. I was super glad that I had ear plugs. My wife didn’t but she didn’t have a problem sleeping through the sounds. The bird calls, although really loud, we’re pleasant. It was fun the hear the different sounds of the day-time birds in the morning and in the day. As for the cottage. It was clean, well kept and maintained had everything we could have hoped for. The photos understate how nice the place is. Every thing was as good or better than expected. Great communication with the owner but didn’t need to contact her for anything. We both wish we had more time here and would stay here again in a heartbeat! Mahalo Lazy Lehua!

Thank you for a fantastic stay. Spent 3 days here and it was just delightful. The property is very lash and tropical the cottage is very clean and well-appointed. A beautiful view out of every window and proximity to hiking and restaurants was wonderful. Very easy drive in the Kona. Viewing the stars at night was pretty spectacular.

We loved our stay here. It had everything we could possibly need, including big umbrellas to keep us dry in all the rain we got while we were there. The little gas fireplaces kept us cozy when it was chilly. We loved how you can see the stars at night through the high bedroom windows. The location is perfect for spending time at Volcanoes NP. Only a 10 minute drive to see the latest changes in Kilauea. The hammock on the lanai was so relaxing. So many birds singing in the trees. We'd love to come back again some day!

We loved staying at this charming cottage near Hawaii Volcano National Park-8 min drive. It is well supplied with bath items, lotion, shampoo etc…and a starter supply of snacks, spices, and a few condiments in the well stocked kitchen. We used the gas fireplaces several times to take the morning chill off. There’s just something relaxing about the sound of rain while swinging on the lanai!

What a beautiful property! The cottage had everything we wanted or needed. The communication regarding check-in and check-out and information we needed for our stay was very organized. We really enjoyed the lanais and privacy of the home, as well as the fireplaces that got used often in the cool, wet weather. The cottage was a perfect base for exploring the national park. We had a wonderful time, and it was hard to leave! We would definitely recommend and would come back in a heartbeat!

Everything turned out as good as the reviews we read. Just a few minutes drive into the national park and tons of walking trails. Make sure you get up real early or stay very late at night and check out the lava glow. As far as the house, nothing was Wanting or missing. As far as the cottage.. Just a gorgeous building, well furnished. The sounds at night (birds, crickets, rain on the metal roof)will lull you fast to sleep. Will definitely be back!

Staying here was like staying at a good friend's fantastic cottage in a rain forest. We had everything we needed. It was secluded and very quiet. We mainly heard the birds in the day and the frogs at night. But very close to the few restaurants in Volcano Village. And close to Volcano National Park. We could go from hiking a lava filled crater to our rain forest cottage. We certainly hope to go back some day.

We adore HVNP & have vacationed in Volcano village 8 years now, staying in VRBO rentals every time. All were fine, but after discovering Lazy Lehua Cottage in 2017, we can't imagine staying anywhere else. We KNOW each week-plus visit will be as fantastic as the previous ones. The love for this home shown by the owner & the local support team is obvious. LLC is maintained meticulously, inside & out, and upgrades appear regularly. We can't wait to return in 2023. :-)

Great location - very private at the end of the subdivision. We had no problem finding it. Loved the trees and plants everywhere - it literally is in a rain forest! The house was comfortable with everything you need. We didn't cook but the kitchen looked well stocked. The bunk bed downstairs was perfect for our grandson. The bed upstairs was very cozy - the quilts and covers were perfect as it was a bit chilly! The bathroom downstairs has a shower. Upstairs it's a jetted tub - looked nice but we didn't use it. The house is conveniently located close to restaurants and the Volcano National Park, also not too long of a drive to Hilo. It was always nice to return to this wonderful oasis among the trees! Also - Stacey was very patient with us as my grandson left his phone in the house after we checked out and locked up. She helped us to get back in the house to retrieve it - thank you!

We loved this property. It is a charming cottage in the rainforest with prime location 1 mile from Volcanoes National Park. First the house: Lovely cottage with bunk beds on the main floor along with a well equipped kitchen, and large and very comfortable master bedroom upstairs. Bathrooms on both floors. Electric fireplaces on both floors for heating (and rustic ambience). Charming and whimsical wood constructing the railing on the patio and the master bed headboard. 3 lanais (patios/porches), 2 of them with hammocks. Dining table on front lanai, where we are all our meals surrounded by the lush foliage and serenaded by birds, frogs, and crickets. Many thoughtful touches go above and beyond. The setting: deep in a lush forest, surrounded by bamboo and ferns and dozens of beautiful trees we’ve never seen before. The location: 1 mile from Volcanoes National Park. Extremely convenient for multiple small trips to the park. Kīlauea (the active volcano) was starting and stopping in recent weeks, and so it was incredibly convenient to be so close to the park that we could rapidly mobilize early in the morning before dawn if there was activity On the USGS webcam. (That’s exactly what happened and we were rewarded with a once in a lifetime experience of seeing an erupting volcano against a black, starry sky.) Aside from Volcanoes NP, the location is conveniently situated between the black sands beach (must visit) and Hilo. Our family was very happy here and the kids said many times they wanted to live at Lazy Lehua Cottage forever!

We stayed 2 nights in this cute and welcoming cottage. It was a great spot for exploring Volcanoes National Park and we loved the rainforest experience for part of our week stay on the Big Island. This place was totally unique and so fun to stay at. The only comment I have is about the twin bunks...If you have very tall kids, they may not fit. The bottom bunk is longer than a normal twin so my 16 year old son (who is 6'5") was thankfully able to fit, but the top bunk space feels shorter than a regular twin due to the sloped roof line. My 14 year old daughter is 5'5" and only fit diagonally. She likes to sleep curled up so it worked out mostly. That being said, I think everyone would be happy to stay here again!

We had a great experience staying at this property. It is gorgeous, well maintained, secluded, and the perfect spot to get away and just relax. The proximity to Volcano National Park allowed us to see the glow of Kilauea erupting with nobody else around. We took full advantage of the well stocked kitchen and the jacuzzi bathtub. We ate breakfast and dinner on the front deck while we listened to the gentle sounds of the jungle and were refreshed by the cool, fresh air. This is exactly what we imagined when we think fairy tale jungle cabin. Highly recommend.

We stayed here for 4 nights to go to the park anytime we wanted and it was great. Less than 10 minutes from the park entrance. The house itself is amazing and we spent mornings drinking coffee and reading on the lanais. The jacuzzi tub was a nice way to wind down at the end of the day.

You really can't find a better place to stay than this. The cottage is almost perfect. Every little extra touch was noticed and made it that much better. The kitchen was stocked and almost anything you needed was available. You will only be about 5 minutes from the park and closer to a few restaurants and two markets. You will feel entirely secluded at the edge of this neighborhood south of Volcano. When we come back to this area we will surely stay here again. It would be perfect for two people or a couple/someone with one ore two kids. The bunk beds on the main level are adorable.

LLC is a charming house nestled in the rainforest just a couple of miles from Volcano National Park. The master suite on the second floor is spectacular! My kids and I loved all the special touches, the jet tub and the porch swings. There is not a huge selection of nearby restaurants serving dinner on some weeknights - so plan ahead. The Lava Rock Cafe (not open Monday) was a huge hit with my kids.

It was a very unique setup. The property is so secluded yet in a neighborhood. It was Serene and felt like living in the woods. Loved the place. Would definitely rent it again. Must saty here to checkout volcano national park and all things at the southern tip of big island and also Hilo.

Wow. This was a real highlight of our 2 1/2 week trip to the islands. My 10 year old wanted to know if we could stay at the cottage for the rest of our vacation, and my 15 year old said he could definitely imagine living there permanently. The location near the park was outstanding, it felt very private and quiet (except for the wildlife, which croaked all night -- ha!), it was incredibly charming, and relaxing with the jacuzzi, hammocks, balconies. It was very well stocked in the kitchen, and incredibly clean. We are just in love with this cottage. It's the perfect spot for a family with two kids. Can't rave enough!

This home is a treasure. It is tucked into plush rainforest in a neighborhood where you don't believe there are neighbors. The home is decorated for comfort and extreme natural beauty.

We loved, loved , loved our stay in this magical story book cottage. Every single detail is lovely----if you like the cottages in Carmel, California you'll feel right at home. It's really much better than the photos, This was the best VRBO we have ever had.

This was a well appointed, excellent place to stay near volcano national park. Stacy thought of everything. We did the hike to green sand beach but started late and there were even flashlights available that put our minds at ease. The bed/bedding may have been the most comfortable setup I've slept in. And the recommendation for the volcano farmers market was AMAZING. we got stuff for breakfast from a booth selling delicious Ukrainian food and picked up breakfast stuff for the next day so we could cook. Was so delicious. We were blown away with the big island and our jungle accommodations added to the experience. Would absolutely stay again.

Super cute cottage in a quiet area of Volcano. Only a few minutes away from Volcano National Park, which was good for our visits there. The place was spotless and well equipped. We couldn't have asked for a better rental and would definitely stay there again. We just wish we could have stayed longer.

This is one of the best vacation properties we rented, with a quiet location, clean interior, pretty garden and well-stocked kitchen. Our kids have been impressed at the first sight!

This is an enchanting property. Spotless and fully equipped but what sets it apart are all the small details which makes it so cozy that you don't want to leave!

Stacey has thought of everything in making this an unforgettable stay. The place is immaculate, has pretty much everything you may need on a vacation and super romantic. Pictures don't do justice!
