Puna Rainforest Retreat and our cottage, Lavender Orchid, was beautiful. The cottage was clean when we arrived, with everything we needed for our stay. The king bed was very comfortable. Bathroom was great. Nature sounds are quite loud at night, which was a nice change from bustling city noises. There are a couple of small fans in the cottage, but enough breeze comes through the windows that they are hardly needed.

The grounds were beautiful and everything was well maintained. It's a short drive to Pahoa town, where there are a few restaurants and other shops. There is a great little guide for ideas of things to do in the area, with directions to some great black sand beaches and tide pools.

We had a great stay in this gorgeous retreat.
