Rental Details

Rental Overview

Nēnē Cottage is a one bedroom one bathroom cottage.

You can enjoy the sights of this small farm from the deck. We have added a bbq to the back as well.

Listen to 'io, Hawaiian hawks, as they soar overhead. This is very rare and amazing to see. We have wild pheasants, turkey and pigs that roam about. We also have sheep, chickens, a goat and a cow.

You are welcome to collect eggs to cook and enjoy.

Explore along our old Hawaiian walls and try to spot Jackson chameleons. Walk through O'hia trees and Hapu'u ferns. In the back of our property you can explore a trail that takes you through a bamboo forest.

We are only 3 minutes to Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. 35 minutes from Punalu’u beach (black sand) where sea turtles relax on the beach. 40 minutes to Hilo and its wonderful downtown shops and restaurants.

Volcano village has amazing restaurants and a small amount of shops.

The NeNe Cottage was comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. The host was informative while giving us our own space. It is just a short drive from Volcanoes National Park. We enjoyed our stay.

We loved our stay with our incredible hosts on their amazing property with all their loving animals. Hot tub was just a bonus on top of an epic farm stay. Great home with super cozy bed and great patio view. Very close to the volcano park. This is a special place. We can’t wait to come back!

If you are looking for a great spot near Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, this is it! Nothing too fancy, but clean and puts you are only a few minutes from the park. Julie did a great job making sure I had everything I needed, and gave me some great local advice to make sure I optimized the time on my trip!
