Cottage rentals with a hot tub

Garden home close to Hawaii National park
Super cute place! Exactly as described. Loved how private the property feels. We were there with our kids but it would make a great romantic getaway. The kitchen is very well stocked. Loved that they had electric blankets because it definitely gets cold at night in Volcano. This place is a great location if you're looking for somewhere near the Volcano National Park.

Liko Lehua Cottage-Furo Hot Tub on Deck-Fireplace
My family enjoyed our stay here at Shannon's place in the rainforest in Volcano! I loved the attention to detail: shower slippers, pineapple accents, gorgeous furniture and artwork, cozy blankies in the living room, really comfy beds, and toys for kids. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for cooking, and I appreciated the teas and coffee. The water from the taps tastes pristine. My favorite thing was soaking in the furo tub on the deck and listening to the rain and the coqui frogs sing. We spent 3 days exploring Hawaii Volcanoes NP and this was a perfect place to unwind after our days in the park. I also appreciated your suggestions on things to do in the park and places to eat. Thank you!

Forest House - Volcano Rainforest Retreat
My husband & I enjoyed our stay here. Everything about our stay was PERFECT! The aesthetic, the surrounding, the atmosphere and vibe was outstanding! We only stayed for a night but waking up to the view of a rainforest was beautiful. The hot tub was amazing especially when used at night because the air was crisp and cold. Very relaxing and peaceful. 10/10 recommend to anyone who considers staying here. We will be back!

Nice relaxing stay area and views were great.

Sanctuary Cottage - Volcano Rainforest Retreat
Gorgeous place to stay! Very conveniently located to VNP. The grounds were beautiful. The tub was a perk after days of hiking in the park. If we’re ever back in Volcano, we will absolutely book again. Thanks to the wonderful staff who were very helpful!

Paradise Haven - Charming & Cozy 3BR/1BA Home
The place was conveniently located within walking distance of the HILO downtown district, where you will find local shops and good restaurants. There are also three supermarkets within 1.5 miles and a short drive to other national chains of stores. You are also near many attractions, including the beach, all within walking or short driving distance, with easy parking. The house offers private parking, which was nice. However, there are some stairs to climb as described in the listing, so it's not wheelchair or elderly-friendly if you carry a lot of heavy luggage. The house came with some basic cookware, and with a short distance to the supermarket and local farmers' market, you can save a lot of money not eating out if you choose to stay in and spend time with family. I would 100% stay there again or any property that Jason is listing. Great Host!

Volcano Mist Cottage ... a very private residence
Beautiful spot in the jungle near the volcano. Super private, jungle hottub was definitely the star of the stay. Communication was great.

Tropical Hilo Haven - 2BR/1BA Convenient Home
Jason was a great host!!! within walking distance from down town so it was very convenient.

Hale Hubner Treehouse Cottage - Mins from Park
The treehouse was exactly how it was portrayed. It was quaint and surrounded by beautiful foliage. It felt like a perfect escape from city life and the crowds at resorts. It was so close to Volcano National Park which made it easy to check out the park multiple days. The inside was clean and had a cabin feel with all the wood walls and wood burning stove. We enjoyed our 2 nights!

Heavenly Haven - 3BR/1BA Hilo Home
The place looks gorgeous with the plants in the garden and a nice looking relaxing living room. Our host is very welcoming and helped us with the luggage as well as greeted us when encountering us when we arrived. Loved the experience.

Honaunau Ocean View! Families Here!
Enjoyed every minute of our stay. Priceless view of Captain Cook monument. Comfortable living space. In a relatively quiet part of Kona near locals beaches where we saw turtles and dolphins. Great snorkeling and kayaking nearby.

South Kona Home with a Sweeping View
We loved our stay at Jenn's place! The views were incredible and the house was cozy and well stocked with kitchen and beach supplies. Jenn shared numerous great recommendations including letting us know about a rare eruption so we didn't miss it. There is one grocery store and a bar about 15 minutes away, but otherwise, it's pretty isolated. We found that peaceful, though, and enjoyed cooking at home, enjoying the views and hanging out on the porch playing the board games, and heading out on longer trips to see the island's geographic wonders during the day.

THE COTTAGES AT VOLCANO - Hale Manu (Bird House)
We had a magical stay at the Bird House. After hiking at Volcano Park, the house was a peaceful oasis. The furnishings, “bird” details added to the fun whimsical vibe. It was delightful.

Foster's Ohia Hale
This is our second stay here and both times were magical. I have been dreaming about that tub since we were there in 2022. The house is so comfortable. Everything I like about staying in an Airbnb. The stay in the jungle with the tree frogs singing is something you can’t experience anywhere else. We hope to be back one day!!

2 bedroom Ohana- book Summer 2025 NOW Reduced $
We spent a pleasant 6 nights at the house. Proximity to Kona and price were our reasons for choosing this lodging, and it delivered. Gordon and Rhonda are quite friendly and provided lots of suggestions for local activities.

Enchanting Eco-Hideaway: Bohemian Retreat
This property was very peaceful and looks exactly like the photos. If you are looking for a relaxing place surrounded by nature, you're in the right place.

Beautiful Cedar Cottage in Volcano
We loved sitting on the couch gazing out at the surrounding forest. Had to bestir ourselves to go see Episode 15 of the Kilauea eruption.

The Shrine: an old Buddhist Church
We had a great stay here, the place is wonderful and the hosts are very friendly. It's close to town and many nice places to visit.
