Gorgeous Custom Home Perfect for Family or Girl's Getaway
Gorgeous Custom Home Perfect for Family or Girl's Getaway
Since we live on the West side of the Big Island, we frequently visit Volcano and enjoy trying various vacation rentals. I took an out of town friend here for 1 night and we immediately "ooed" and "awed" over the lava rock driveway and custom built home. You'll notice that the home is not completely finished, but it will in no way affect your stay and enjoyment...and you may not even notice. Very clean and new, delightful for cooking and having a nice dinner inside or morning coffee and breakfast outside. I love the special touches of the hand-cranked ground 100% Hawaii coffee beans, the beautiful orchids throughout the house, and lots of blankets (It's chilly at night there even in May!). As of right now, there are no drapes (except a sheer one in the bathroom and detached bedroom), but it is private and sits up high enough to not be a problem. If you have a problem snorer in your group, this is the perfect place to put them in the detached bedroom/bathroom location out of ear shot from the rest of the group. :)

Top Notch Accomodations!
Hale Ka Lehua is a beautiful, well appointed cabin in the best location possible near Volcano National Park. Nestled in a quite neighborhood among beautiful flowering plants and within walking distance of Volcano National Park, you will be torn with whether to explore the majesty of the Volcanos and rugged coast nearby or just stay at the house to unwind. No detail is left unattended to. We stayed all over the island on our 8 day vacation, including in a condo in Kona, a townhome in Kahlua and a hotel in Hilo and this was by far the best accomodations. And, the owners are a pleasure to communicate with as well :) Highly recommended for a family or two couples traveling together.

Amazing volcano retreat
I inquired about this property immediately after viewing it online on VRBO, and Mindy called me back withing a few hours, and we set up the booking. She responded to all my questions over e-mail and was very accommodating. My family and I had a wonderful stay at Hale Ka Lehua, the house is in superb condition, with a gourmet kitchen, excellent craftmanship and beautiful decor throughout. The house is full of large windows which let in lots of light and it also feels very private with the forest views from the back deck. All the interior wood and the wood stove gives this place a cozy luxury cabin feel. Its very close to the volcano, and we were easily able to go out again after dinner to view the glowing lava at the caldera. I had the pleasure of sleeping up in the loft and the starry night sky view through the large and corner windows was truly amazing! I highly recommend Hale Ka Lehua if you want beautiful, comfortable accommodations close to the volcano!

Highly recommend a stay at Hale Ka Lehua
Very enjoyable experience at Hale Ka Lehua. Brand new and super comfortable accommodations included a fully stocked kitchen and gorgeous garden view via big windows on 3 sides of the great room. Loved sitting on the porch and watching the wild birds walk through the yard and just a very short drive to Volcano National Park. Saw many amazing sights on the Hilo side of the island to include a helicopter ride over the lava fields, tons of waterfalls, Ahalanui park hot springs, and the Onomea Bay Scenic Drive - a must see.
Mindy/Kalapana Tropicals was so helpful in providing advice and information on this home and sights in the local area. Definitely recommend a stay at Hale Ka Lehua.

Incredible craftsman home in perfect setting
A creative master piece in the perfect location for touring this section of the Big Island. John & Mindi, the owners & builders, obviously loved creating this masterpiece and it shows in all the details. Some of the materials used are one of a kind. The wood used for the staircase is the most beautiful we have ever seen and the granite counter tops are incredible. The stone work inside and out is amazing.
The home is very well set up for visiting guests. Mindi is extremely helpful with hints for discovering their part of paradise.
The night view from the Master Bedroom retreat is like being in a tree house. Views on 4 sides of tree tops and a million stars plus sometimes the glowing orange plume from the caldera. After the heat and humidly of the Kona Coast the refreshing temperatures in the 70's were delightful.
We hope to visit again.

Our time at Hale Ka Lehua
We spent four nights at the Lehua House in Volcano Hawaii and it was delightful. There were four of us (two couples) and the house was very comfortable with one bedroom inside the house and one bedroom off the deck which they call "the pod" with its own bathroom. It has many windows and has the feel of a tree house, very charming. The only drawback was room for suitcases. It is cozy. There is also a room/loft upstairs with a futon and lots of windows. The location is great since it is close to the park entrance and little town of Volcano and not far from Hilo. On the way to Hilo you must stop at Hilo Coffee Mill for the best coffee on the Island. Very friendly people and exquisite beautiful chickens greet you at this quaint place. The owners of Hale Ka Lehua are so accomodating and helpful. They have put so much of themselves in this lovely house. We would like to return!

Beautiful Get Away
Our stay was awesome. The house is beautiful and has all the convince's of home. We loved that the house is only a walk or bike ride from the Volcano National Park. We spent hours hiking and drving to the crater in the evening to see the glow of the crater.
Being able to BBQ out on the lanai and sitting by the fireplace after a long day of fun without worrying about a long drive is what the location of the cabin is all about. We are already planning another trip to stay.

Perfect Hawaii Get Away
When we first arrived to the house we were in love, just the beauty of the house and all the surrounding area takes your breath away. The house has so many personal touches you feel right at home the minute you walk in the door. Our family was lucky enough to stay at the house for 7 days. We found it a perfect fit for our family and friends, the pod bed room is a perfect place for a little private time, and the loft bedroom has beautiful views of the area and the volcano.The home is beautifully furnished and the kitchen flows into the living area making it a perfect place to entertain. We also loved that it was the perfect place for a morning run or walk and the nights on the lanai were so relaxing. The home is located right outside the national park and our family enjoyed a number of hikes in the park. We will definitely return to the house on our next visit to Hawaii, and have already recommended it to our family and friends.

Beautiful and peaceful!
My family enjoyed a long weekend at this place and we can"t wait to spend time there again. The house is beautiful and very well maintained. We were pleased with how well the house is stocked and the kitchen had all the best cookware, appliances, etc. We really enjoyed the pod bedroom and it was perfect for some peace and quiet away from the rest of the house. I highly recommend this place!

What a lovely retreat!
I stayed here with several close friends for one night and only wish I could have stayed longer! The home is lovingly appointed and absolutely beautiful - a masterpiece of craftsmanship in wood, tile and glass! And the "flowing lava" driveway is a fun touch! The expansive glass windows looking out into the surrounding native forest gives you feeling of really being away from it all! And the stars at night are incredible! We walked to the entrance of the Hawaii Volcano National Park right from the cabin and we intended to walk back at night so we could see the red glow of the crater, but we were too cozy sitting in the comfy chairs by the fireplace! The quiet, cool night and memory foam mattress made for a perfect night's sleep. I will definitely return and look forward to spending more time at this lovely forest retreat!
