Coconut Cabanas

What a great place! Wonderful accommodations. Everything’s new. Spotlessly clean. Everything was as advertised. Leslea’s breakfasts are great and it was great to get to know Leslea and Daryl. Convenient to Volcano Nat Park or Hilo City. We would definitely stay again.

Leslea and her husband have created a lovely place to stay when in the Hilo/​VNP area. We absolutely loved the property and had plenty of privacy in our cabana. Their location is a perfect base for exploring Volcano Nat. Park! Our cabana was spacious, clean and wonderfully decorated. We were invited to join them for an amazing breakfast and took a tour around the property to learn about all of the fruit trees and flowers. Fantastic little spot, can’t wait for our next visit!

After much searching, my wife and I finally found (and agreed) upon this place, just off the beaten path between Hilo and Volcanoes National Park. We arrived to a wonderfully welcoming couple and a private ranch with stunning views of Mauna Kea. Our ‘cabana’ was wonderfully appointed and came stocked with some papaya in the refrigerator and Punalu’u Sweetbread in the cupboard. The private bathroom is nothing short of luxurious and the open dining lanai makes it a true Hawai’ian home. Our breakfasts were absolutely delicious featuring local fruits (some grown in the garden out back), fish, eggs from their chickens, and other organic ingredients. The best part, however, were the owners. They were so warm and welcoming and truly wanted to connect with us. We were not just another guest helping their bottom line, we felt more like long time friends visiting from the mainland, being treated to a Hawai’ian luxury retreat. If and when we go back to the Big Island, we’re only going to stay here.
