About this property

Modern Contemporary, custom designed and well-built home with full kitchen and dining area, laundry, fireplace, beautiful decks, sleeps 10 comfortably, but can accommodate up to 17. Nestled on a private, landscaped acre of rain forest with many varieties of fruit-trees and ornamental flowers in Puna, Hawaii.

This family friendly home is 27 miles to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park in one direction and 15 miles to the flows of 2018 in the opposite direction. It is also central to the towns of Pahoa, Keaau, Hilo.
This secure property is fenced off and gated. The fireplace will be ready to light and have back up wood to stay warm on the cooler nights. It has a peaceful country feeling with only one neighbor in view from certain spots upstairs. Beautiful tropical landscaping with many exotic birds you will hear the sounds of nature.
It is a great place to relax and unwind. Very clean with ceramic tile and granite counter tops, two bedrooms have carpet and one with a hardwood floor.
All bedrooms have keyed entry for added security. It has an office space with a desk and basic office supplies, printer, copier, scanner plus a day bed. With plenty of windows for natural light the house is very comfortable and inviting.
There is a deck upstairs as well as downstairs so if you have a larger group you have room to spread out or to come together.
It has Roku t.v. in the living room and all bedrooms and Wi-Fi throughout.
The laundry room is stocked with detergent, bleach, fabric conditioner, iron and ironing table. All bathrooms have towels, wash clothes, toilet paper, soap, shampoo, conditioner, shaving cream and toothpaste.

Pots and pans, dishes, utensils, rice cooker, crock pot, toaster, coffee maker, french press and keurig. There is a gas grill on the lower patio near the kitchen for your convenience as well as a hammock to lounge in after a good meal.
All of our water is harvested from the rain and goes through a state of the art filtration system complete with ultra violet light for clean, safe, pure,delicious drinking water. As far as food and beverage we will provide a whole bean organic rain forest blend coffee and keurig pods. Avocados, bananas, tangerines, oranges, tangelos, lemons and mountain apples are all organically grown on the property and will be available when in season. In the garage you will find two soft top surfboards to use as well as various coolers for your day trips. For family's with young children I have a crib/playpen, a walker and a high chair.

Great for the whole family

Huge, airy, and bright house. The roosters in the general area (not the actual property) were annoying, but the noise was very manageable. Tony answered all of my questions very quickly and provided everything that we needed to make our stay enjoyable.

Excellent location and House for Large Family

An excellent place to stay, it is away from the main road and so beautiful. You are in your own getaway. Our family loved it and it was very accommodating for our family of 12 people. We would definitely come back. Anthony was great to work with. Mahola The Nelson

Magical refuge

We were absolutely enchanted by the location of this property. The hammock on the deck became everyone’s favorite spot. The house is well equipped, immaculately clean, and magical. We saw geckos and frogs and wild pigs. I would definitely recommend this property for families that want a quiet haven that is secluded and quiet, but close enough to drive into Hilo very quickly.

Rainforest paradise

We had a great experience. Plenty of space for our family of seven. The property was beautiful-quiet, tropical rainforest. Loved the hammock and relaxing out back. Loved the welcome treats. We enjoyed the frogs croaking at night. The house had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable and was very clean. Lots of extra blankets and bedding. We would definitely rent again.

Rainforest Getaway

Our multigenerational family of 10 enjoyed this little getaway in the rainforest! The home was clean and spacious for all of us. It was a great location to visit Hilo, Akaka State Falls, and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. We enjoyed the park like property and the sounds of the frogs, roosters and even wild pigs! The owner provided ear plugs for sensitive sleepers as well as bottled water, sunscreen, and bug spray. There was beach equipment and coolers for day trips. The road to access the property is a little bumpy, but allows for a secluded location. Tony was communicative and helpful to make check in and check out easy.

Possibly the best deal on the island for a large group!

Our group of 12 (2 families with kids) had a wonderful stay at Orchidland Estates. The house is large, clean and very well equipped with all the necessities of a home. The only things I can think of that potential visitors should know are: 1. There is no dishwasher (not a big problem for us, as we could put our teenagers to work!) 2. The downstairs bedroom is separated from the rest of the house-- you need to walk a few feet outside to enter the house via the back door to access the bathroom. Once again, not a huge problem, but some (e.g. kids) may not prefer this set-up. 3. Because there's no AC, it's necessary to sleep with the windows open, which means that you will hear a LOT of nature sounds (coqui frogs, birds, goats, dogs, roosters). The owner very thoughtfully provided earplugs (thanks!) or bring your own. All in all a great place to stay!

Beautiful VRBO Home

WOW! Was the first impression and it didn't disappoint! The house was very clean, stocked and spacious. It's perfect for 10 people. There is only one bedroom on the bottom floor..but it is close to a bathroom and the laundry. Everything was very clean and just like described. The only thing i think that was a surprise..or i may bave missed it.. it is on a dirt road...about not quite a mile that has alot of potholes .. so just be careful if you rent a low sitting vehicle... but it is worth the drive. There is no AC... but all the rooms have multiple windows and fans... and it's not too bad. The only thing is at night you will hear all the night creatures....and the roosters....which can be loud..but its peaceful..and ear plugs are provided if you need them. There is a great neighborhood restaurant Kaleos that was pretty great! Anthony was a great host and great communication. Overall, a wonderful place to enjoy Hawaii.

Peaceful green oasis and a wonderful stay in Hilo

We stayed at Anthony’s place for 5 nights in June. From the start to the end of our stay it was a pleasure to interact and communicate with Anthony. Anthony was very responsive to all my questions and also accommodated a couple of requests that we had. This made the reservation process very smooth and streamlined. Anthony’s house is a gem-the check in process was easy and seamless. The house was spotless and had all the necessities. Very thoughtfully stocked with everything that a family/ friends get together would need. As beautiful as the house is, the surroundings are even better and made for a peaceful stay. Lastly, Anthony’s property is conveniently located about 20-25 min from Hilo town to the north and about 45 min from Volcano National Park to the south. This made getting around very convenient. Overall, a fantastic stay and we will certainly return if we visit Big Island again!

Great experience! Beautiful.

We were very impressed at how well the home was stocked with thoughtful amenities. There were lots of snorkel masks, two surfboards, and even some extra sandals. The kitchen had all the utensils and pots and pans to cook just like at home, and the beds were comfortable. There were chickens next door that crow in the early morning, but the host was even thoughtful enough to supply earplugs! I would stay here again.

Really enjoyed staying at this house. It has everything you would need and was layed out very well. There were 6 adults and 2 children under 2. The landscaping was equally beautiful and perfect.
