B&B: Royal Orchid Suite mins from Volcanoes National Park

Enjoy peaceful Big Island Hawaii in a Contemporary Hawaiian Bed & Breakfast set in a Tropical Rainforest directly outside Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park. The custom designed & built Craftsman Cottage style home features artisan beds with fine linens, private baths, cozy fireplaces and a tropical breakfast.

We are nestled in a native Hawaiian rain forest in Mauna Loa Estates with giant ferns and Ohia trees in the storybook arts community of Volcano Village.

The Royal Orchid Suite is named for the wild orchids you will see growing both in our rainforest and in the nearby Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. The Suite is a private large master suite situated away from the main part of the house, with views of the native fern rainforest. The room features a handcrafted rattan King bed with elegant tropical bedding, and a gas fireplace. For a thoroughly romantic and relaxing evening, the Royal Orchid Suite room has a Jacuzzi style tub. French doors lead to an outdoor deck where you can sit and enjoy the fragrant smell of wild forest ginger or exotic tuberoses, or just take in views of the magical rainforest. A collection of Hawaiian botanical prints and original artwork delight and soothe the spirit.

Gas grill available on request.

Lava Pond Lodge Bed & Breakfast is located in the storybook village of Volcano Hawai'i, a community of artists, writers and scientists. We are secluded in the forest yet just 5 minutes from the entrance of Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park with its spectacular hiking trails, scenic vistas and lava viewing. Volcano is 27 miles from the Hilo airport and 96 miles from Kailua- Kona.​

A great stay, would highly recommend

What a fantastic stay. Our suite was very comfortable. They add nice little touches like cookies and snacks always available. The breakfast each morning was delicious. I would highly recommend this place and plan on coming back. It’s a great location to check out the southern part of the island, Hilo, and volcano NP.

Volcano Stay

We enjoyed our stay here at Volcano. The B&B was secluded but near enough to get to Volcano National Park within minutes. Rhonda was a great host, very friendly and shared about all the places to see with comments and reviews on what to do. The breakfast was very good and more than we expected- egg omelette, pastries, toast, muffins. She even had decaf coffee and “Hawaian fruit butters. If we go back to the Big Island we would stay here again.

At Home in Hawaii

Charming place in an excellent location. Was served a wonderful breakfast every morning and chatted like I was back at home. Room had a fireplace, a jacuzzi tub, and a bed warmer! So cozy! Also had a refrigerator and microwave to store and eat a quick lunch one day. Easy to come and go, especially from Volcanoes National Park. Absolutely LOVED my stay. Want to come back with the whole family!

Excellent stay!

Great place near Volcano! The room was very nice, the bed was comfortable and the breakfast was a special treat with the papaya, Apple bananas and yogurt and the pastries and egg dish. We were super close to the park for seeing the eruption and doing some great hikes! Rhonda was a delight, very informative and helpful and made a nice breakfast. Sure was good at communicating. We loved our stay.

A rain forest paradise

My wife and I stayed here while visiting Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park and it was our first experience at a B&B. The host made a wonderful breakfast and her place is a gem that is only minutes from HVNP. The host also gave us great recommendations for the area and the park as well.

A lovely bed and breakfast situated just outside of Volcanoes National Park!

My partner and I stayed at the lava pond lodge for 3 nights and had a comfortable, restful, and pleasant experience. The daily breakfasts in the kitchen were plentiful, delicious, and a great way to start our days. Our host, Sarah, had many great recommendations for our visit to the east side of the Big Island, and was great company every morning over breakfast. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be recommending it to friends and fellow travelers!

Great location to visit Volcanos National Park. Breakfast each morning was amazing. Lots of activities to do in that area. Only thing missing is the sunshine but you're in the rain forest. Lots of vegetation and birds.
