We loved our stay at the Rainforest Hideaway and wish we could have stayed longer. We used it as our launching pad to explore Akaka Falls, Rainbow Falls, Hilo, Pāhoa, and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. It was a drive to some of these places, but was so close to the National park entrance that we were happy to be able to go multiple times. Viewing the lava flow and stargazing at night were definite highlights and we appreciated the hosts recommendations on how/where to view.
The property was easy to access and was immaculately clean upon arrival. Very cute space with inviting decor. Host had thought of everything we would need, down to a towel warmer for use after the hot tub. Speaking of which, the hot tub was great. It was kept very clean and was the perfect way to wind down after hiking and exploring.
We also enjoyed the ambiance of the rainforest with the unique sounds of the coqui frogs at night. Never heard anything like it!
Five star stay for sure. We hope to come back.
