Royal Hawaiian Estates House | Halehikiola: 2 BR, 2 BA House in Volcano, Sleeps 6

2 Bedroom House in Royal Hawaiian Estates, Volcano

Aloha, we invite you to stay at our “house of new dawns.”
Halehikiola was named for the refreshing way it evokes the Hawaiian value of Ka la hiki ola each morning as the house fills with light. As “the dawning of a new day,” Ka la hiki ola is the value of promise, optimism, and new beginnings—it invokes our sense of hope. The quiet street we are on, Alaula, is named for another way the Hawaiian language refers to both the light of early dawn, and to the day-glow of sunset before twilight sets in, creating the perfect setting for Halehikiola.
Thus, Halehikiola is a house with a mission: Our goal is to enliven your spirit with hospitality, comfort and invigoration each time you visit the Big Island of Hawai‘i environs of our neighbor, Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park, and spend time on the East side of the island. Bring a journal to capture your thoughts and transcribe your memories—what we call Sense of Place is exceptionally strong and compelling here.
In respect for the land it dwells on, the house is elevated; it was designed and built to sit atop gentle outcroppings of an ancient lava flow (do take note of the stairways in our photos). Vaulted ceilings reach up through the forest canopy and feature 2 large skylights; Halehikiola feels open yet intimate, comfortably surrounded by the natural wild beauty and cool green foliage of the rainforest. If you’d like to bring the outside in, do feel free to clip the orchids, anthurium, bromeliad torches, forest lilies, gardenia and ginger which may be in bloom; we’ll have a pruner and selection of vases ready for you!
Location: Halehikiola is in Royal Hawaiian Estates, the neighborhood bordered by the ‘Ola‘a Forest Reserve on the slopes of Kilauea. Drive a short 7 minutes to reach the entrance to Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park, 39 minutes to swim and snorkel Punalu‘u Black Sand Beach, and 39 minutes to Hilo and from the Hilo International Airport. On Sunday mornings, be sure to visit the Cooper Center Farmers Market, just 5 minutes away; Volcano Village is known to locals as “where the artists live,” and small galleries outnumber stores and eating places. During longer stays, take day-trip adventures to the west side of the island: Drive 65 miles to the Maunakea Observatories Visitors Center, 85 miles to the Waikoloa Resort and Mauna Lani Resort coastline, or 99 miles to historic Kailua-Kona. Make your visit here a true get-away and island-wide adventure.
What to pack: Halehikiola is at the 3,700 foot elevation mark, so the nights and early morning hours may rain and can be cold; pack a jacket and clothing you can layer—you will get warm on your adventure hikes—and for the possibility of winter nights that can dip to the 40s. Pack your t-shirts and shorts for everyday wear, hiking shoes for adventures, easy slip-on footwear for the yard and rainforest, and flip-flops (we call ‘em slippas) Grocery and dining in the nearby Volcano Village is limited, so we do recommend you fill your gas tank, and make a stop enroute for the nourishment you might need for your first meal after arrival beyond the water, coffee and tea we provide at the house.

Bedroom on the main floor - King bed
Loft bedroom on the 2nd floor - King bed, 2 Twin beds, smart TV, ensuite bath
All bedrooms are equipped with extra pillows, comforters and heaters for cold nights,

Summary: We enjoyed our stay. Very comfortable and roomy for 4 adults. Location was perfect especially since Kilauea erupted the day we got there. Being a few minutes from Volcano National Park was great!

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My wife and I loved staying at this house. She said it felt like a cozy "treehouse." Of course, it is not a treehouse, but it has a unique layout with loft bedroom overlooking the entrance and dining area. We really liked relaxing in the great room, which has vast seating in the comfortable sectional couches and large TV. Excellent location in a rural setting. Ten minutes from Volcano NP. Not too far from Hilo, maybe half-hour away. We used this home as a base to see Volcano NP, Hawaii Botanical Gardens, Akaka Falls, Rainbow Falls, and Laupahoehoe. We were on the go so much that we didn't get to enjoy the outside spaces, but they were inviting.Host was great to work with. We had everything we needed and felt welcomed.Great place to stay.

Summary: My sister and I brought our families on a combined family Christmas vacation to the big island. We spent the first week in Kona, and the 2nd week here in Volcano. After the first week of beaches and lots of people, our stay in Volcano was perfect. The house is beautiful, with plenty of room to accommodate our party of 9. The grounds were gorgeous, and the neighborhood is very quiet. Any small issues we had were quickly addressed by the property manager. We were fortunate enough to be here when the volcano erupted as well! A wonderful property, I highly recommend it.

Summary: We booked this place because it looked like a “Hawaiian home”. It far exceeded our expectations! It was bigger than we thought, cleaner than anticipated, and very comfortable. The attention to detail was superb. We had everything we needed and more, and it truly felt like a home away from home. I highly recommend this home to anyone looking to stay on the east side!

Summary: We loved staying here! It had everything we needed and was convenient to all the places we wanted to visit on the Big Island but also very private and out of the mainstream. Would love to stay again!

Summary: This place was awesome! Very well put together and with everything you need. The location is quiet and private and only 5mn from the Volcano National Park. It made it so much easier to be able to come home for lunch and then head out again. I would stay there anytime while visiting the park! The house is clean, comfortable and easy to get to. The huge living room was great for hanging out with everyone, and we enjoyed the serene deck, and the extra sitting nook inside. Definitely rent it!

Summary: Hands down, the best equipped kitchen of all the VRBOs I’ve stayed at. My family is big on cooking and this was huge for us. It was very comfortable for the big group and close to everything we wanted to see.
