Mele Nani Getaway in lovely Volcano, Hawaii
Mele Nani in Volcano, Hawaii is our sweet two bedroom, one full bathroom vacation home. Our favorite spot is the hanging lounger on the covered, front lanai. Gently rock to the bird song all around while sipping your morning coffee. We offer a small wood burning fireplace for chilly evenings. The living room has a comfy sofa, chair, flat screen TV for streaming your favorite channels and free WiFi. Our custom kitchen is full of appliances, cookware and dishes for cooking local produce til your heart's content. The full bathroom has a bathtub and shower combo that we stock with a starter supply of soaps, detergents, and paper products for our guests.
Please note: Some mapping software shows the correct location but indicates that the address is in Kailua-Kona. IT IS NOT. The house is in Volcano near the National Park entrance.
Located in the Ohia Estates neighborhood, Mele Nani, is less than a 10 minute drive to the famed Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and about a 40 minute drive into Hilo. We provide local recommendations (Things To Do and Restaurants!) in a binder located in the home. Volcano Village has a few wonderful restaurants and fantastic galleries. Within an hour's drive you can experience dashing waterfalls, craggy hikes around dormant volcanoes, daring ocean cliff outlooks, vibrant cultural shops and restaurants, and most of the world's varied climate zones. We recommend staying at least a week and packing light layers and sturdy shoes to get the full 'Big Island' adventure. E komo mai (welcome)!
What to Bring: Volcano can be chilly at night and when it rains so pack a few long layers and sturdy hiking shoes to maximize your enjoyment of our location! We stock fire wood and a starter supply of essentials like toilet paper, paper towels, detergent and soaps. While we do not stock shampoo, sunscreen, or bug repellant there may be some left by previous guests that you're welcome to use.

Our stay at this beautiful property was very peaceful! The location and climate of Volcano make the stay very relaxing. The house itself is very nice and has everything you could possibly need!
This was a great property between Hilo, Kilauea, and Punalu'u Beach. The property had everything we needed to make meals and we loved the separate twin beds for the kids. So nice being so close to the volcano, it made for easy access and a short drive after a day of hiking. Everyone loved the day bed on the porch and the wildlife that came to visit.
We are repeat guests so that days a lot. It works for us on many levels; the location is ideal, quiet and affordable. Jessica and her team are so easy to work with.
We have now stayed 3 times in this home and totally love it! Perfect spot. Close to the park and volcano and Hilo. Quiet and can see the stars from the yard. The swinging bed is perfect for laying out and reading a book.
Great location, close to VNP. Clean, nicely furnished, comfortable beds. Loved the vibe. One of the best stays during our two week visit to Hawaii. Thank you for sharing your lovely home!

Very nice place. Relaxing.
This house was adorable! Tucked into a private setting but only minutes from food, gas, parks and everything available in Volcano. The house was immaculate, super clean. Communication with the owner was easy and fast. The beds were comfortable, it was perfect for our quick 2 night trip to see Volcano National Park.

We enjoyed our stay. The house was perfect for our family of 4 and had everything we needed to be comfortable. We loved being able to experience the village of Volcano at such a charming house. It was clean and extremely well kept, and we enjoyed the lanai out front. The location to the Volcanoes National Park was amazing; such a unique area of the island. We are glad we were able to stay and not just do a day trip.
Home was perfect for our stay in Volcano. Beautiful setting. Communication with host was excellent and they were very responsive and friendly. Highly recommend staying in Volcano on a Big Island visit and this home in particular. We loved it. Thanks!
My husband and I stayed at this beautiful cottage / house for four nights in September. We absolutely loved it. It's sparkling clean, and fully equipped with everything we needed. We did our own cooking, without eating out, so we really appreciated the kitchen. The owners put together a great "manual" with various procedures, activity recommendations, and more. The location is peaceful and perfect for visiting the National Park, Hilo, and the coast.
Lots of privacy with rainforest all around. We listened to the coqui frogs all night. Only a few minutes from the national park. Recently renovated with modern floors and windows. Nicely stocked kitchen but no dishwasher.

Lovely property near Volcanos National Park. We drove from the Kona side of the island to Hilo and Volcano. The people were friendly, and we enjoyed visiting Volcano Village and the Park. It was very lush, green, and peaceful. The house was well set up, clean, and everything worked well. We would definitely come back.
We absolutely loved staying at this sweet house. We fell asleep to the lullaby of nature and rain. We spent most of our time on the porch taking in cool breezes and slow moments. We were surprised with many extras in the house: beach toys, beach towels, games, umbrellas, spices, and much more. You made us feel right at home! We had a wonderful stay! Mahalo!
