This property is one of the most unique Airbnbs we ever stayed in. Kalapana is located on the southeastern side of the big island. I bet you have never seen anything like that - houses built on lava rocks—mind-blowing. This should be a ”destination” in your travel plan.
Jade was a fantastic host. We were having trouble finding the location, and she called us promptly. Whenever we had any questions, Jade was there for us. I must say that this is pretty off-grid, in the middle of nowhere. So be prepared. Electricity is battery/ solar powered; kitchen setup was with propane tank and camping stoves; there were many bugs (including mosquitoes- get some insect repellent). We loved every bit of it, but it may not be everyone’s cup of tea. Also, I would recommend getting a high clearance vehicle.
