Alii Kane Cottages with Loft

Volcano

Set within a tropical rainforest, this self-catering accommodation is located in the town of Volcano on Big Island, Hawaii. A kitchenette and free WiFi access are featured at Volcano Alii Kane Cottages. the location is fantastic, in the middle of the rainforest, but at the same time a short distance from an important road that connects all the attractive places in the area. the welcome by the owners was incredibly personal and kind, which completely eliminated the time delays associated with the adaptation in the place, so that in the evening, immediately after arrival it is possible to see the fire, lava theater, which is 20 minutes away by car (I recommend after dark, few people and a great show) Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

An adorable cottage enclaved in the middle of a fairy-tale rain forest. Cozy and incredibly well equipped. I don't think we've ever stayed at a more generously equipped place. We were surprised at the attention to detail in ever room and were thankful for it all showed the hosts' incredible generosity. There's a ton of books to read on everything Hawaii; wished we would have stayed until we were done reading all the books. The vegetation all around it is just stunning. The unit is squeaky clean and very well kept. Perfect for exploring the volcano area. ,
