We had a fantastic stay at this cozy cottage in the woods near Volcano. It had all the amenities we could have wanted and more. The place was spotless, the hot tub was a perfect way to relax after exploring the area, and the outdoor gazebo with the propane heater made for great evenings even when it got chilly. The host had excellent communication—professional, timely, and helpful throughout. The location was ideal, just minutes from Volcanoes National Park, which made it easy to pop in and out throughout the day. The kitchen was extremely well stocked, with plenty of condiments, spices, and everything we needed to cook. And the coffee bar? Next level—seriously the bougiest setup we've ever seen in a rental! One heads-up: the property is gated, which wasn’t mentioned in the listing. It was a nice bonus for privacy and security, but it did catch us off guard at first. The bed was extremely comfortable, and overall the space felt peaceful, cozy, and very romantic—perfect for our anniversary weekend.

We had a very enjoyable stay at the Stained Glass cottage. The rental had every amenity you could ever want. The communication with Garrett before and during the stay was perfect. I would give this place the highest recommendation!

This cottage felt super luxurious with all the amenities and the ultra comfy bed. We had a wonderful time, ready loved the hot tub after a long day at Kilauea, the gardens were beautiful and lush. I especially loved the 'alala themeing of the property, it is what attracted my attention in the first place. Mahalo nui loa!

My husband and I stayed in this cottage for two nights recently. We've visited Volcanoes many times and stayed at many vacation rentals in the area. Our experience here was among the best. Here's what we loved:Perfectly sized for a couple.A really comfortable king sized bed.A kitchen area that included everything you'd need for simple meals and great coffee (several types of coffee makers!)A well organized and spotless bathroom.Many special touches throughout the home such as a complimentary bottle of wine, a basket of local goodies, wonderful decorative elements related to the theme of the cottage.A lovely covered patio/lanai with a two-person hot tub, other water features and unique and colorful garden areas.The house is in a quiet, rural area which is a must for us.Communication with our host was easy and pleasant.The bottom line...we really found it to be great home away from where we could relax after our usual exploration of the Park and surrounding areas. We'd definitely visit again if we get an opportunity.

My husband and I stayed at Alala Cottage in Volcano, Hawaii for 3 lovely nights. This small but extremely well outfitted house was even better than expected. The host had thought of everything you will need to enjoy your stay- especially numerous ways to brew your coffee (Keurig, Nespresso, regular coffee pot plus a milk frother!) The gardens were beautiful and included a fish pond as well a hot tub. We spent leisurely mornings enjoying the flora and birdsong. This cottage is obviously close to Volcano National Park but don’t miss a chance to drive to South Point and beaches along the way.

An amazing rental property. Quiet, private, extremely well-equipped with every little detail thought of by owner. Artwork. Lanai with beautiful gardens and hot tub. The best rental we have ever stayed at!

This studio style cottage was great for our 2 night stay in Volcano. Bed is in same room as living room and dining room. It wasn’t a big deal at all for us but I wasn’t expecting it. It was 8 minutes from VNP. Quiet area and very clean. We didn’t use hot tub but looked really nice. Well stocked.

This cottage was amazing! It was even better than the description stated. A quiet, cozy respite in a tropical setting, with more amenities than you can imagine, this cottage fulfilled all our expectations and then some. From the fully-stocked coffee station to the extremely comfortable bed to the private hot tub, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend it.

From the moment we pulled through the beautiful gate, to all the little kitchen and bathroom extras to the fabulous hot tub this place was so well thought out! Wish we had been there longer!

What a beautiful little cottage! Very private feeling. So many gorgeous flowers around the cottage and around the gazebo. The 2-person hot tub was fantastic for relaxing in at night! The California King bed was very comfortable. Bathroom has heated floors and a heated towel rack, great for cool mornings. Many thoughtful goodies left for us, including a nice bottle of local wine. If you’re looking for a special place near Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, this is it!

The cottage was exactly as advertised and exactly as other commenters have mentioned. We were extremely comfortable here and Garret (host) has really taken such great care in creating an exceptional experience. My GF and I spent 2 days hiking all over Volcano until pleasantly exhausted and then we had such a lovely place to relax, unwind, and recover. The garden/gazebo is beautiful and the hot tub is such a nice touch as well. Thanks for an amazing stay, Garret!

My husband and I stayed here for two nights while we hiked around Volcanoes National Monument. Garret was very accommodating and easy to correspond with. It was a very peaceful stay. My favorite part was the outdoor space with the hot tub and table. We ordered food from the local Thai truck and ate it outside. The grounds are amazing, I enjoyed all the different plants for sure. Inside everything was clean and all the little details were thought of. We highly recommend this place and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again!
