This property is a lovely small cottage in Volcano. Suitable for individuals or couples it is small but features a full kitchen, has some breakfast items stocked by the owner, and was very comfortable. The owner was very gracious and it was great to meet him in his nearby artist store. Volcano is a small village only a couple miles from the national park so it was perfect for rapidly getting in and out of the park and is centrally located on the southern coast of Hawaii for day trips all over that area. Hilo is about 30 mins drive away for access to all of the shopping and activities offered there. Overall a wonderfull stay, can't wait to come back.

Life-changing!

Set in a large and glorious contemplative garden, the tiny cottage is masterfully furnished and equipped with everything you need and many things you didn’t realize you needed until you discovered them tucked away (plush robes, house shoes!) The linens (all towels, sheets, and blankets) are very high quality and plush and soft. The sheets are silver !! The gardens become your very own private paradise after 4:00pm and wandering around them and finding heaven in very small details will change your life! The Star of the Show is Ira with his starry night shirt and beyond gracious nature. And at last: the steps down into a private zen shower right in your cottage!

Rustic zen garden unit

Small but well appointed unit in gorgeous garden setting. Fantastic sheltered private hot tub. Thoughtful welcome note and chocolates from the owner. However, structure is more like a fancy shed than a cottage. There is a significant moisture problem in a very wet environment. A dehumidifier ran the entire time (pulling more than 30 pints of water every 6 hours) with visible mold in some areas and a musty smell overall.

Delightful stay in Paradise

The adorable cottage and delightful, whimsical garden grounds had everything we needed for a romantic and inspiring stay. Host Ira was warm and gracious. Our favorite spot. Wish we could have stayed longer. Perfect retreat gave us easy access to Volcano National Park.

Magical vacation!

This is a tiny cabin in an artist village right outside of Volcanoes National Park. The cabin is adorable, and the host really did think of everything! I can't believe I found this gem on hotels.com! Very different from what I would expect on hotels.com, but we were so thrilled with this stay. The cabin is cozy and intimate, and it was such a special stay in a unique and special place.

sehr schön verbunden mit dem Café Ono, das aber erst um 11.00 öffnet und schon um 15 Uhr schließt - also ungünstig, wenn man Touren plant; durch Regenwald toller nächtlicher Sound, aber damit auch hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit im Cottage (etwas muffelig; es gibt einen kleinen Ofen und einen elektrischen Luftentfeuchter); Frühstück wird bei Anreise im Cottage für alle Tage auf einmal hinterlegt (für drei Tage: kleines, leckeres Bananenbrot, vier Joghurts, Müsli, etwas Milch und guter Kaffee - also vorher noch etwas einkaufen gehen); es ist ungünstig, wenn man viel Gepäck dabei hat - wenig Abstellmöglichkeiten; sehr netter und aufgeschlossener Vermieter, der gern Auskunft gibt; besonders schöne Gartenanlage, die man in der Regel ab 15.30 für sich allein hat; nach Hilo braucht man nur 35 Minuten, zum Eingang Nationalpark nur 10 - also gut gelegen

A rainforest and a volcano

The cottage is in Volcano which is a rainforest climate. It rains, a lot, so if you are not interested in a bit of water then this area is not for you. With that said it was a lovely cottage. Very homey. Ira does a great job making sure you have everything you need during your stay. The bathroom is spacious for such a small place and I'm a little sad we didn't get to try the hot tub. Noble the pet rabbit is friendly in his little hutch on the property.

SO relaxing!

Tucked in amongst the trees, with birds singing and cooling breezes blowing, this Volcano Village bed & breakfast is a hidden gem. Just across the highway from the famous Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, the Volcano Artist Cottage is close to everything in Volcano Village AND the National Park, but so tucked away & private, you'd never know it. In fact, it's a historic building, on the grounds of a working restaurant & art retail store, but yet, it's so private, you'd never notice. Add in a delicious jacuzzi, and a relaxing time-out from life's responsibilities is yours for the asking. Enjoy, I know I did!

Cozy and Rustic Cottage

This adorable cottage was a true find. If you are looking to be waited on or for a resort atmosphere, this is not for you, but for us, it was perfect. It is among the Artists Village gardens which is very Zen. Just enough space for two who like to be close. The shower area is wonderful and we are trying to figure a way to do that in our own home. There is a kitchenette with microwave, mini fridge, toaster and coffee maker, and for breakfast we were left fresh fruits, yogurts, granola and a delish mini loaf of banana bread. The owner has provided many small thoughtful amenities like spices/teas/coffee/oil, robes/slippers, CD player, small grill, WiFi, umbrellas and even flashlights and binoculars. We got there during a heavy rain storm & the small space heater was just enough to warm us up and feel comfy cozy. I admit that they need to replace the mattress as it was not overly comfortable but everything else was so suited to us, it was a minor issue. The hot tub (and I mean HOT) was so nice to have, especially after biking/hiking to see the Lava Flows. Note: the tub cover is old and heavy! I did not eat at the cafe which is right next door but did enjoy wandering thru the many small rooms of the gallery admiring all the interesting items for sale. As a guest, we rec'd 10% off which I happily accepted when I purchased a cool stone pendant as a souvenir. We did get to meet the owner, Ira, shortly before we had to leave and he is delightful. Someday we hope we can return.

Peaceful Retreat

The cottage is a rustic and cozy cabin situated in a very unique and artistic garden. The grounds, gallery and cottage itself are lessons in Feng Shui, the staff are extremely friendly and inviting, and the air is cool, crisp, and quiet. Definitely recommend this place for those who are not looking for high-end accommodations but a peaceful Zen-like experience.
