We had a great time at the Kalapana Gardens this October. The room was spacious & tastefully decorated. Standing under the giant shower head was a delight unto itself after a day in the sun. While the location is somewhat remote, it gave us the opportunity to experience small-town Hawaiian culture, the farmer's market (Sundays), and Pahoa. The road around the airbnb is a little rough, but we didn't have problems in our rental car if we took it slow. At the end of the day, the terrain & local stories of living on a lava rock field are pretty hard to beat. Thanks to all the hosts for their guidance, stories, & hard work on continuing to spruce up the place!
