Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Hawaii County

hidden gem on lovely grounds with his own honey bees making scrumptious honey. Dennis was so sweet and friendly and his dog and cat were so sweet too. loved how close and convenient it was to the volcano national park. The property is set in a simply gorgeous subtropical plot.

Our family ranging from 77 to 7 all agreed that the house exceeded our expectations. We appreciated the quiet setting with lots of places to walk {I think grandpa, walked them all}, the fully equipped kitchen, and the pool (of course). My grand daughter named the resident geckos and gave them all a fond goodbye. We had to drag our 16-year old off Magic Sands beach. We all enjoyed several snorkeling spots and splurged on a Fair Winds "Kona’s Best Morning Snorkel: Captain Cook & Kealakekua Bay." Many thanks.

A slice of heaven in Volcano. Lovely cabin, spacious and thoughtfully furnished and equipped with everything necessary for a comfortable stay. Todd and Olivia are exceptional hosts, with proactive communication and clear instructions. The cabin was spotless and beautifully maintained, inside and out. Highly recommend!

Peggy’s place was absolutely remarkable. We drove into the driveway and there were three Kanji pheasants standing around in front of the house! The wrap around windows let us enjoy the jungle landscape no matter where we were in the house. The bed was comfortable and Peggy even left us a pineapple, papayas, and apple bananas. The location was great for us—within minutes of Volcanoes National Park, so we were able to get an early start both mornings we spent hiking. Peggy was great at communicating, made recommendations for dinners for us which were spot on, and even emailed us first thing in the morning to let us know an eruption had begun! My husband and I both loved the place and it was one of the most memorable Airbnbs we have ever stayed in. Thanks again Peggy!

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful home! The property was stunning, with a perfect blend of style and comfort. What really made it special, though, was the attention to detail - from the cozy touches to the thoughtful amenities, it truly felt like home. The private setting was a huge bonus, allowing us to relax and unwind in peace. We loved the little things, like the fully stocked kitchen and the welcoming touches throughout the home. Overall, we'd highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable getaway!

Everything was as described. We had no issues finding the place, checking in or out. Everything was easily identified. Everything was clean, organized, and not “cheap”. Sometimes you get some Airbnb that use cheaper stuff (plates, cutlery, cups etc) but these cups were clean and legit. It’s small things like this that are appreciated. Beds are comfy, patio is comfortable. Locations: short drive to gas and small local market. Short drive to volcano and hikes etc. Great base camp for the area.

Our family loved the house. There was plenty of space for everyone and the set up was perfect for our needs. We especially loved sitting on the lanai in the mornings and evenings, and falling asleep to the sound of the tree frogs. The location was a further from the ocean than we realized, but we enjoyed the lushness of the hilly terrain and would stay there again. Susan and Iris were very responsive when we reported a few minor appliance issues and it didn't impact our overall experience.

Puna Rainforest Retreat Hotspring is truly one of the most beautiful Airbnb properties I’ve ever stayed at. Nestled in the lush rainforest, the property features stunning orchards, a thriving vegetable garden, and a serene trail that made our stay feel like a true escape into nature. Our host, Jacklyn, has clearly poured a lot of love and care into maintaining this special place. She was incredibly warm and welcoming, generously offering us fresh fruits and vegetables straight from the farm. It was such a unique and thoughtful touch that made our experience even more memorable. Our whole family had a wonderful time here, enjoying the peaceful surroundings and the natural beauty of the property. If we return to the Big Island, there’s no question—we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a magical and relaxing getaway.

Sally's place did not disappoint--we so enjoyed being tucked away on the Big Island. There were plenty of nearby hikes and outdoor activities. It was also incredibly easy to just stay put and relax. We used the spot to get around to various locations on the island. We also had no issues driving back at night. Super great touches we appreciated, like having water shoes, snorkeling gear, and a cooler (all things we ended up using!). Appreciated the flexibility using the shared laundry machines. Sally also proactively offered a later check out on our last day since there was no on checking in. We hadn't planned on lingering, but ended up spending a little more time with our coffee next to the pond that morning!

Loved my stay at the gecko inn! Gets cool at night which is perfect for sleeping. Very comfortable and private area. 10/10 recommend! It’s minuets from the entrance of the national park

Well-stocked 3B/2B condo ~30 min from Kona Airport. I was pleasantly surprised by how thoughtfully stocked and pristine this unit was. Everything appeared brand new and of high quality. Comfy beds, kitchen with Nespresso machine, spice rack, and cookware. Thoughtful extras like beach gear, toiletries, and laundry supplies were appreciated. Easy check-in/out and responsive host. A few things to note: 1. This is a third-floor walk-up. It may not be ideal for guests with mobility issues. 2. There is a portable AC in the kitchen and ceiling fans in every room. Despite this the condo can get hot, especially the main bedroom. I’ve since learned that central AC is uncommon in Hawaii, but this may be helpful for future guests to know. 3. The second bedroom is separated by a sliding door, and the third is a loft. Light sleepers should be aware that sound travels, though earplugs were thoughtfully provided. Overall, my group of 5 enjoyed our stay here. Mahalo!
