Minutes from Hawai’i Volcano National Park...Peaceful, clean, and just awesome

The property felt like we had walked into a Rainforest magazine , with the most beautiful plants & flowers! Gigi went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and especially appreciated her helping us keep an eye on Mt Kilowea so we wouldn't miss the eruption!

We had a wonderful stay in Gigi’s cottage! The space is beautiful and Gigi is meticulous in considering our every need. The cottage is quiet, peaceful and private…the perfect place to decompress and enjoy the Big Island. It is definitely on my “favorites” list now.

This property was absolutely perfect for us. The accommodations were immaculate and the grounds were stunning.

Beautiful little cabin with a great garden. Very clean and updated. Very close to the volcano park. Cant wait to stay there again!!!

Had a great time at Gigi's clean and cozy cottage. Everything was perfect and we greatly enjoyed the overall peace of the stay.

This was literally a perfect place to stay. The location was perfect and provided easy access to the national park, which was good because Kīlauea erupted during my stay. Amazingly clean and the tranquility of the location cannot be beat.

Amazing grounds! Peaceful and serene! Cozy and comfortable! So many things were thoughtful and helpful!

When we arrived at the cottage very close to Volcano National Park, we were blown away! The place far exceeded my expectations. We have stayed in many Airbnb’s over the last few years and this place was extremely clean, well stocked, and in tiptop shape. The surrounding gardens were unbelievable! The thought, detail, and hospitality, extended to my husband, and I went above and beyond. I strongly recommend staying at this cottage if given the chance! Aloha!

Gigi was so kind and attentive. She updated us when the cottage was ready and she left us homemade cookies. Her hospitality went above and beyond. We had a very comfortable stay and Gigi’s property is stunning and peaceful. We will be back! Mahalo nui loa!

Perfect in every way for our 30th wedding anniversary. Cottage, host, location, gardens…all exceeded our expectations.

Gigi’s cottage is the perfect spot for a couple to stay near the volcano. The cottage is surrounded by beautiful rainforest and manicured gardens with fun trails. The cottage itself is immaculately decorated and maintained. Clearly Gigi is an artist and her delight to the senses. Details and beauty that makes you smile are in abundance. I will return.

This is a beautiful property! Gigi is a fabulous host and the private cottage is located in a gorgeous setting and is filled with every amenity needed to make your stay comfortable, peaceful and relaxing. highly recommend!

We had a great stay! Gigi is fantastic. Book your stay!!!

Lovely, very comfortable, very clean, private cottage with beautiful plant-life and garden. Communication was excellent. It's a nice place to stay in a very quiet, off-the-beaten-path part of the big island.

Gigi and Marc have crafted a wonderful cottage with so much personality. No detail forgotten to create a warm, personal environment to relax in. The gated location provided a sense of security, and the beautiful grounds were so nice to wake up to. All in all a wonderful place to stay on The Big Island. Just one thing to note, most local restaurants close early, or are only open some days of the week or for some hours in the morning, so plan accordingly. It is also a pretty good distance away from most tourist attractions on the island, but is soooo close to, that it’s almost inside Hawaii Volcanos National Park, which is both amazing to visit and enormous in size, a great reason to stay in Gigis place is to spend time in this incredible park, and still feel like you have a home to come back to.

This was a great location for our days hiking in Volcanoes National Park, just minutes from the entrance. The environs were beautiful; we’ve never seen so many colors of anthurium! Gigi was a great host very communicative and responsive. And the welcome cookies were SO delicious. A great place to stay.
