This is a tiny off grid house! Quaint and comfortable with power, hot and cold running water and a full bathroom, that s 1500 feet from the ocean cliffs, a short walk and great place to fish from or picnic. You are right by the ocean so it can be windy and get rain that seems to fall sideways! In the pictures we included things to check out that are less than an hour from the house and now have a very long list of things to do on this island. Let us know if you want a copy of the list. . From north of Hilo to Volcano National park there are plenty of things to keep one busy for over a week! Also note: the lava has shifted the direction its flow 3 times since we got the place in 2014 and like the whales we do not know the schedule of what will be happening when. But the area has amazing hiking and ocean views right from the front door... It feels like being on another planet and you get to explore some of the NEWEST ground to walk on! Just be careful because it can be sharp footing and bring plenty of water. The house has ALL the amenities of power, water and sewer. However it is a limited system with finite amounts of each so please be conscious when showering (5 to 10 minutes), cooking, and using resources. The stove is only a single burner at this time, but we do provide a french press for coffee. You cannot use things like a hair dryer, toaster or coffee maker. We do have a new fridge, new solar panels and new batteries... several cloudy days in a row does hamper the power for the fridge rarely, but there is a separate system for power to the rest of the house. Yet another note: you are in a very natural environment that we like to keep organic as possible (chemical free) if you leave food out critters WILL come and if you leave lights on at night and doors wide open flying insects will visit, which will bring the geckos - you can see them in the picture section, they are cute. What else can I tell you, cooking and heated water is by propane with an on demand hot water heater, it was purchased in October 2018. A fair amount of cooking and serving equipment, towels, sheets, blankets. Its rustic glamping in my opinion where you get to explore a tropical volcanic environment in the middle of the Pacific ocean... NOT many places like it in the world. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Kitchenette - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Outdoor areas - Balcony ### Laundry - Laundromat nearby ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - Near a zoo - Near the marina - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Parasailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 400 square feet ## Similar properties ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27440000/27430500/27430498/725162c0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Living on Lavaland - Once In A Lifetime Experience!

It's remote enough to feel like a retreat but it's easy to get into town. The landscape is beautiful and the house has all the basics, including running water with hot showers and a toilet. The only shortcoming was that the mattress was worn out. But that said the house was a great home base, with just enough kitchenette for 2 peoples' needs, gorgeous views, and creature comforts. I'm already thinking about when I can come back! ##### Vikash G. Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erin C. Feb 5, 2019 #### Wonderful house with beautiful views I wanted peace and quiet and that’s what I got. This was my second stay at this property and I hope to be back again. I love the design of this house and the location is to die for. Star viewing is wonderful. The owners were easy to communicate with as well. My only complaint is that I wish I would have gotten to stay longer...but schedule did not permit. Despite the 2018 lava flow covering some of my favorite Puna destinations I still enjoy this part of the island and there is still a lot to see and do here. Thanks again Jeanette and Michael! ##### Erin C. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jane C., Portland, Oregon Oct 31, 2019 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy #### Property listing is inaccurate and host communication and problem resolution was unacceptable The amenities listed for this property are wildly inaccurate. There is no grill or stove. Before I traveled to the property I sent a text message to the host confirming a grill, because I didn't see the grill in the photos, yet it was listed as an amenity. I received no response. I even sent a message to the chat help who confirmed the grill. I went ahead and purchased two pieces of fish $30. to prepare as a meal. When we arrived to the property we couldn't find the grill. I texted the host and asked where it was - no response. At the end of the stay I left the fish in the freezer and texted that information to the host and asked for a refund for the amount I had paid for the fish. Finally, I heard back and she refused. She denied that the grill was in the listing. I sent back a text telling her that it is listed as an amenity. I haven't received a response. Poor communication, poor problem resolution and clearly unaware of the property amenities listed. I've been a Homeaway member since 2016 and this is the first time I've ever encountered an unreasonable host. ##### Jane C.

We had such a special experience staying at the Lava House and are so happy we had the chance to spend a few days in this unique little corner of the planet. The Lava House was the perfect size for my husband and I, we cooked all of our meals and loved sitting on the porch watching the sunsets. We've never experienced a landscape as powerful as the lava field- it made for wonderful exploration. The Kalapana Gardens neighborhood has a spirit of independence and resiliency that we found incredibly inspiring. If you have an adventurous and curious spirit, you simply must find yourself here and experience the way this community lives in connection with nature. ##### Andrea S.

She was very accommodating when we had to reschedule our trip not once but twice because of Hawaii COVID protocol. Second, this house is such an unique opportunity. The location on the lava field is one that makes you appreciate the beauty and the power of Kilauea. I definitely recommend a four wheel drive vehicle to get to the property. We rented a wrangler and it was very useful. Google Kalapana Gardens to learn more about the location and the community. Third, the house itself is well kept and beautiful. The views from both balconies are beautiful with unobstructed views of the ocean. The stars at night are breathtaking. If we make it back to Big Island we would LOVE to stay in “Octopus House” again. ##### Danielle E. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason T.

If your idea of 5-Star is a swanky resort then stick to the Hilton's. But if you're looking for something unique and off the beaten path...WAY OFF the beaten path...Actually there is no path beyond this point...then this is the place for you. Totally cool to think that you are staying volcanic rock that is still shifting. There is a smell in the area but we chalked that up to the hardened LAVA!!! LOL Seriously though! this is a cool place. The drive to and from the main road is rocky so you can only go 5-10 mph. and the next closest town is Pahoa which is maybe 20-30 min so grab what you need while you're out. Bed was comfy and bathroom and kitchen were more than enough and certainly better than any other price you'll find. Thank you! ##### Jason T.

Und genau das ist es, was wir wollten: auf einem Lavafeld schlafen. Die Unterkunft ist genau wie beschrieben, ich würde es als Glamping bezeichnen, denn es ist eine Art liebevolles Hexenhaus. Es ist dank der GPS Koordinaten wirklich gut zu finden und entsprach der Beschreibung. Nachts wird es wirklich, wirklich heiß - da es keine Klima und keine Ventilatoren gibt, ist man im Obergeschoss angewiesen, der ... wie der Wind so ist - mal da ist und mal nicht.

In a fantastic clean and neat off the grid little house? View the ocean over a lava field and being able to feel alone and isolated with people around? View a developing culture and community in a wild, severe, yet strangely beautiful setting? Ease of access and good communication? All of these and more. Just make sure you have done all shopping before arrival and you use gps settings on google maps. Would go.back in a heartbeat. ##### Mark B.

Off the beaten path, but still accessible. Follow End of the Road to Kalapana Gardens. ##### Jill N. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Darren H.

The place is as advertise its small but gorgeous and the view is Great. One thing I highly recommend is @ sunset walk out into the Lave field and wait until is completely dark a watch the sky. We stayed there for at least an hour after dark. Make sure you have a flash light or head lamp. Make sure you prepared there is only a single burner to cook on but as a hole we Loved it. The bed was super comfortable and the rain squall in the middle of the night was beautiful music . We only stayed one night so, Can't wait to go back and stay longer. ##### Darren H.
