River View Rainforest Tiny Cabin with Kitchenette (No Cleaning Fee)

Pepeekeo · Big Island · 1 bedrooms · 1 bathrooms · Sleeps 3 · 9.8/10 · 28 reviews

Rental Details

Property Overview

This tiny house offers a private bathroom and a well equipped private kitchenette on a screened-in porch. You will also have access to our shared waterfall swimming area.

This cabin is off-the-grid. Being off-the-grid means that we get all of our electricity from the sun and all of our water is collected from the rain. We are not connected to the island's grid power system. Our solar panels charge a large bank of deep cycle batteries all day in order for us to have power around the clock. Guests are asked not to use any appliances that generate heat from electricity (such as toasters, hair dryers, curling irons, etc...) as they consume too much energy for an off-grid power system.

Regulatory Note: This is a hosted rental and is not subject to Hawaii County Bill 108.

This is definitely something different from most vacation properties. Unfortunately for us, our stay corresponded with a 'kona low' rain storm and so we couldn't take full advantage of uniqueness of the property. In drier weather this could have been a lot of fun, but with constant rain it was only a step up from being stuck in a tent in the rain. The property managers were super friendly and helpful. The kitchenette is basically like camping. Don't plan on cooking much in it.

Exactly as described! Waterfall just 1 min walk away from cabin. Little kitchen. Private driveway. Little tricky to find even with google map direction, but once you get here, it’s worth it!

I wish more people could find this place and stay here for couple nights, off grid and private natural pool.

This property is one of the most amazing places to stay. The closeness to the waterfall was magical and it just felt like a little piece of heaven... cannot wait to come back💕🌞

We truly felt like we were in paradise. Pictures don’t show the true beauty of the plants and trees and water. The sounds were incredible too. We had just came from Waikiki and it was so nice to be with nature - the true original Hawaii.

The cabin is better than the pictures. The grounds are incredible. A private waterfall with a large pool at the base. Its perfect for cooling off. Jungle sounds, rushing stream, a one lane road for morning walks. Perfect.

Had a great time at the property. Cabin was clean, in a serene private area, and had all the necessary amenities. Would certainly book again and recommend to others.

Great location in the middle of the rainforest 15 mins from downtown Hilo. Private natural swimming pool was awesome! I recommend take the scenic route to get to the cabin

Clean. Frogs! Spectacular waterfall! I got engaged here. So memorable, I love camping. This was glamping! Bidet, flushing toilet, warm shower. Great bed. Fabulous out door kitchen. Just what I needed for rest and relaxation. Warning, you need to be an active healthy person to stay here. Im from Alaska and this was a slice of heaven on earth.
