These hollow rock columns were formed when the lava wrapped around the cool tree trunks and quickly solidified. When the molten lava drained away, these rock columns were left standing. The columns are hollow because the tree trunks themselves were incinerated during the process, but only after the rock had cooled enough to hold it's shape. If you look closely, you can sometimes see the texture of the tree bark in the rock molds.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6289524/aada9d04-09c0-4614-b9ef-039e023150e3.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Lava Tree State Monument 21 min drive \- 11.8 miles - Hawaiian Beaches Park 10 min drive \- 1.2 miles - Pahoa Museum 15 min drive \- 7.4 miles - Kapoho Beach 24 min drive \- 7.1 miles - University of Hawaii at Hilo 41 min drive \- 26.8 miles ### Getting around - Hilo, HI (ITO-Hilo Intl.) 50 min drive ### Restaurants - Black Rock Cafe 17 min drive - Bite The Eye 19 min drive - McDonald's 16 min drive - Kohala coffee Co 16 min drive - Burger King 20 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Kai Malie Calm Seas Beside still waters Psalm 23:2-3. pet-friendly? ### How much is parking at Kai Malie Calm Seas Beside still waters Psalm 23:2-3.? ### What time is check-in at Kai Malie Calm Seas Beside still waters Psalm 23:2-3.? ### What time is check-out at Kai Malie Calm Seas Beside still waters Psalm 23:2-3.? ### Where is Kai Malie Calm Seas Beside still waters Psalm 23:2-3. located? ## Have a question?

Its cliffs so no water access but nice views. They have cameras for security which was a bit disconcerting, but the location was quiet and off the beaten path. It was an hour drive to Hilo and about 50 min to the Volcano National Park. The host and the local contact were responsive and great to connect with. All in all a great respite and vacation. Their added touches were a wonderful addition. ##### Nathalie S.

My husband decided to take me to Hawaii this year for my birthday & I must say the home & island he picked out was perfect. The home was in a great quiet & beautiful neighborhood. There was so much to do on the big island that after being out all day, it was so nice being able to go back to a house that was clean, in a great location & was in a very quiet neighborhood. We spoke with the on island property manager twice regarding questions & she was so helpful. If you’re thinking of visiting the big island, definitely consider this home for your stay! ##### Elsie P.

I agree with other reviews in that the photos don't depict the interior as well as maybe they could. With the windows open, it's much brighter in the living room than shown. When we weren't by the ocean somewhere or at one of the local markets, we spent the majority of our time on the back porch having our meals and just hanging out. Very peaceful. Rochelle was extremely responsive to all our questions prior and during our stay. ##### Brian G. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Tiffany G. 24 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Off the beaten path I booked four nights and we only stayed one night. I missed that this property did not have a/c which was 100% my fault. However, the main issue I had staying more than one night was the owner wanted us to keep all the windows closed, with no a/c, due to recent break-ins in unoccupied properties in this area, when we were gone all day resulting in a very humid house to come home to after long hot days out exploring the island. If I would have known all that I would not have booked this house. It was a very beautiful quiet secluded area surrounded by tropical plants and trees. But be prepared to due a lot of driving because is off the beaten path. If we could have kept the windows open all day and night I probably would have stayed because the nights due cool off and the house is a comfortable temperature. Also after I informed the owner she did apologize and was going to try and get some of my money back! Which I appreciated since I had to stay somewhere else but I never heard anything either way. Just know if you book this property be prepared to drive father for everything thing… food, gas, excursions, etc and you’ll be coming home to a hot/humid house every day. ##### Tiffany G.

Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Renee C. 26 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We enjoyed Kai Malie, walking the neighborhood was both relaxing and beautiful. Our uncle lives in Pahoa, so this was a perfect location for meeting up with him and having our own personal space. The house was comfortable and inviting, with adequate cooking facilities and plenty of room to relax. Rochelle & Ted were quick to respond to questions/issues. We enjoyed our stay and would return. ##### Renee C.

Was able to walk to a beautiful small park on the ocean. Short ride to volcano National park. Washer and dryer came in handy. Clothesline and pins came in handy for my delicate items. Maku’u market on Sunday a short distance was a real find. You need to visit black sand beaches. Rochelle was quick to respond to any requests. ##### Nancy W. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ---
