Fireplace, King Bedroom, 1 roomy Bathroom, Full Kitchen with Breakfast Nook, Living Room with Queen pull out sofa, Large Covered Lanai,and Carport. HIGH CHAIR AND PACK N PLAY available with notice. W/D available for stays of 4 or more nights.

OUR CUSTOM GUEST GUIDE offers 4 different day trips (could not do it ALL in 4 days) for you to chose your interests... each 'direction' lists many sites in the order you will come upon them, how to get there, descriptions... Also includes restaurant recommendations, detailed hike information, out of the way places and more. Local events and an ONGOING calendar for special things that happen in the area like Ranger led hikes, Hawaiiana events and the like. It's very common for the Park and Art Center to have events that are a real treat.

MENEHUNE [meh-neh-HOO-neh]-- Hawaii’s legendary mystical and shy forest dwellers are small in size at about two feet high, although some are only six inches high. They live in the deep forests and hidden valleys of the Hawaiian Islands, far from the eyes of normal humans. According to legend they are very industrious master builders that use their great strength to accomplish mighty feats of engineering and construction overnight.

In that spirit, we welcome you to 'MENEHUNE MANSIONS'... which to the UNMYSTICAL HUMAN, would appear to be A VERY SWEET FOREST COTTAGE.

Minutes to Hawaii Volcano National Park and tucked away in the uniquely beautiful forest of desirable Volcano Village.... you will come home to a tropical, clean, fresh, warm and cozy hideaway... for a menehune mystical price

Just a sweet little place. Well manicured grounds, very responsive/invested owners. Very clean. Bed very comfortable. Well appointed interior. Excellent value for prices especially in Hawaii. We loved the Menehune theme! ALOHA from a couple of halau members of Kapio'o Ke Anuenue.

Having stayed in a half dozen locations....

Aloha Lesie,

I have submitted our review and it was apparently accepted.
We enjoyed our stay and wish you luck with your future rentals.
The reviews all sound accurate and in total, comprehensive. After having stayed in a half a dozen locations in Hawaii I can tell you this is not always the case. Sometimes you MUST read between the lines. What goes unsaid and assumed can be critical. I have learned not to set my expectations too high, sight unseen, and have a positive attitude. However, the Menehune was excellent!

Mahalo,
Richard
