Pair the mystique of a tropical Hawaiian forest with an impeccably cared for home and you'll have Lava Rock Retreat! Catered to the traveler who wants a private oasis but desires the convenience of a central location. Lava Rock Retreat is in a quiet Hilo neighborhood with close driving access to visit dashing waterfalls, sea turtle dotted ocean parks, vibrant botanical gardens, and volcanic wonders. The architecture is reminiscent of mid-century modern design highlighting natural surroundings. We welcome you to enjoy Lava Rock Retreat, Hawaii!

As you enter Lava Rock Retreat you're greeted by walls of picture windows with verdant views of our tropical forest. The main living area boasts a soaring ceiling, cool concrete floors, and hi-tech smart home functions.

Dine at the copper fronted bar or the dining table. The living area has a large screen Smart TV and sectional sofa (you may want to spend more time here than you imagine!). The whole house is geared with free high speed Wi-Fi internet and Alexa Smart home features.

The home sleeps up to 4 guests and is recommended for adults and older children only. Our outside areas are built around the natural pahoehoe flow of ancient lava with uneven, rocky grounds.

"Beautiful respite in Hilo
We had a fantastic stay at this lovely property. Everything was immaculate, and all the luxuries to make it a special stay. We are "coffee-holics", so we overjoyed when we came in to all the wonderful options.

We spent most of our time relaxing in the incredible outdoor spaces. The outdoor shower and hot tub are a special treat. Wandering the garden paths after dark is like being in a fairy jungle. The primary suite is particularly romantic with the outdoor lighting flickering through the curtains.

We will be back!

"Tropical Paradise!
We had a wonderful stay at Lava Rock Retreat. The home is lovely and such a fun place to return to after a day of exploring the area. We absolutely loved sitting in the living area and looking out into the garden which is so beautifully lit up at night (and the hot tub was great too!). The owners have really thought of everything and it shows. Definitely a wonderful rental - don't hesitate to book it!"

"Gorgeous and Relaxing Oasis
As soon as we walked in, we were so impressed. It was even better in person than in the photos. Amenities like bidets, towel warmers, voice activation, ambient lighting, hot tub, outdoor shower, etc.. made the stay feel high end and like a retreat. "

"SPECTACULAR
Worth every dime! I forgot how much we paid, but it was worth it.
This property made us not want to leave home a couple of days. It’s tastefully decorated, well appointed, full of amenities, and peaceful. We were pleasantly surprised with the endless details, privacy and comfort. I’m an OCD type and I had zero issues. Even walked around with no shoes, left my suitcase open, and felt comfy laying on the sofa. That’s huge for me.
Book this place. You won’t regret it!"

"How do I love thee, let me count the ways
There are so many things to love about this home. Never have I ever loved a rental so much that I couldn't wait to get home after a day of touring. Every single detail is pure perfection. Heated toilet seats and towel bars! A massage chair! Several walls of floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a completely private rainforest with paths to explore. The outdoor double shower made of lava rock (what a treat!). Hot tub was most welcome after a long day of hiking on lava at Volcanoes National Park. Even the kitchen had high-end coffee-makers and gadgets to make you feel like you are royalty. We had breakfast on the lanai every morning, and sat out there again every evening before bed as we reflected on our day.

Hilo is a hidden gem that many tourists miss. Since it is a rainforest, there are lots of waterfalls, and it is very easy to tour the volcano, drive the Upper Road to Waimea, and take the Red Road (Rte 137) to Isaac Hale State Park where the lava literally crosses the road. Easily accessible to the main strip in Hilo with shopping and the Pacific Tsunami Museum. And so much more.

The spaciousness and luxurious amenities of this home create such a relaxed atmosphere that you just want to soak it in and savor every minute. Absolutely loved listening to the rain and the frogs and wildlife while drifting off to sleep. Didn’t need our sound machine here! I have already decreed to my husband that future trips to any Hawaiian island will require a quick stop in Hilo to relax at Lava Rock Retreat for a few days before heading back home to reality. If you are on the fence about renting here, do it. You’ll be glad you did.

"Amazing Luxury Stay - Beyond What Pictures Show!
Amazing place! I rented this place sort of last-minute as some of my best friends were visiting from the mainland. I live on the west side of the island and we were looking to do a getaway with my friends to be closer to Volcano. We really love staying at particularly whimsical Airbnbs, and we really wanted one with a hot tub if possible. When we found this place on Airbnb, it had a 3-night minimum stay, but when I reached out to the hosts through their website, they were kind enough to make a special exception for us as we could only stay 2 nights. The place had EVERYTHING. You will want for nothing. Organic spices, a fully stocked kitchen, multiple coffee makers, a rice cooker, literally anything you could want. All the toilets were on a system where you walk in and the lid lifts and there are heated seats and bidets (we didn't know about this but it was an unexpected very fancy luxury). All the towels are on towel warmers. The place is so modern and Japendi at the same time. There are tiki torch lit pathways through the jungle in the backyard that make for amazing moonlit night walks and the hot tub and outdoor showers are second-to-none. The beds are incredibly comfortable and we especially loved eating out the back lava rock lanai (original lava rock that has been preserved for effect). We also loved the well-lit lights that you can turn on to illuminate the jungle outside as you sit in the massive massage chair and have a full-body massage experience. Overall, this may have been the nicest Airbnb I have ever stayed in (and I have stayed in probably around 100 over the past decade of my life). It is private and the neighbors are very friendly but do not invade your space. The back yard is completely separated and private. I would totally come back here if you want a whimsical, luxury, comfortable, biophilic stay close to Hilo & Volcano side. Mahalo!"

"Perfect retreat
This place has everything you need and then some. Perfect place to stay and explore Hawaii or just stay in the renal all day and relax "
Dec 31, 2023 - James T., N/A, CO



"DREAM HOME
This home is one of the most beautiful homes I’ve ever seen! Words and photos barely do it justice. The floor-to-ceiling wall of windows that looks out over the lush jungle took my breath away. AND all those windows slide open (with sturdy screens behind them) to make you feel like you are living in the landscape. Many of the walls are faced with natural lava rock, which enhances that feeling. The super cool lighting and smart home features play so nicely against the nature-forward aspects of the home. It’s like nothing I’ve seen in a vacation rental before - and I’ve stayed in a lot of them. Other highlights include the huuuuuuuge hot tub and the chef’s kitchen. Cooking is one of my passions and this kitchen had everything I needed and so much more. The beds - and all the furnishings - are super comfy. The house feels very secluded, but it’s only a few minutes from downtown Hilo.We had a couple minor questions, but our on-island contact answered them quickly. I guess it’s a brand new rental so I was lucky enough to get in at the beginning. Book it now because I’m sure it will be full up soon! I wanted to stay here forever. "
