About this property

Nice, Big House near Kehena/ Pohoiki Black Sand Beaches and Lava Fields.

  • Aloha!
    The 'Nice, Big House is a private 3 bedroom /1.5 bath fully furnished town house w/ 4 beds (3 beds downstairs and 1 on the 3rd floor) which is part of a larger building with two private studios attached. This 'unique' design allows us to rent it for less and helps ensure our guests privacy. We have been renting this home for 10 years now and most customers really enjoy their stay. You may be surprised at some very famous people who have stayed here including performers from Cirque Du Soleil.

    When you rent this home - all linen, kitchen utensils, bath tissue, 3 TV’s w/ Netflix, Roku, landline phone, and Wi-Fi are provided at no extra cost. It has a wonderful distant ocean view and it's less than 10 minutes from the Kalapana Lava fields, 20 minutes to Pohoiki and 3 minutes to Kehena Beach. Due to the recent eruption, Puna now has several black sand beaches ( Kehena, Pohoiki, Mackenzie Beach and sea caves, Kaimu and Kapoho beaches. Some hiking required to Mackenzie and Kapoho Beaches. All beaches in Puna are black sand w/ rock. Kehena and Pohoiki are the best beaches and are nearby.


    Nice, Big House has been the home to visitors around the world for about 10 years now and many return to this wonderful and well kept home.

    It's a wonderful place to stay if you want to be centered in the Puna District of Hawaii (Kalapana), which is one of the most beautiful places on earth.

    This is a sunny spot of the island where there is less rain! Although it rains much less down here, our area remains green and beautiful.
    Many people come to Puna to visit Volcano National Park - home of Kilauea and the periodic lava flows and beaches.
    There are also Hawaiian jungles, tropical rain forests, beautiful coastal views, thermal ponds at Pohoiki, surfing/ snorkeling, whale watching due to migration to warm Hawaiian waters during winter months.
    You can often see them from land swimming off our beautiful coast and at the Kehena Beach view point.
    Many of my tenants tell me that they were able to swim w/ dolphins and you can too.


    For those of you who are seeking night time entertainment, check out 'Uncles Outdoor Hawaii Bar' if you want to sip a beer, listen to live Hawaiian music, eat great food and enjoy a farmers market at the same time.

    Kilauea Volcano is just a 45-60 minute drive.
    In addition, the KaMauna Caves are on the way where you can walk through huge lava tubes.

    The unit is situated in a safe, quiet & friendly Hawaiian neighborhood off Kalapana-Kapoho Rd.

    This 3 BR / 1.5 BATH house & loft w/ an ocean view and within walking distance to a park situated on the coast w/ a spectacular ocean view, and Kehena Black Sand Beach.

    There is a lot to see on our side of the island: 4-5 beaches, lava fields, fishing areas, Akaka, Kahuna and Rainbow Falls, Boiling Pots, hiking, Farmers Market (1/2 block away), Space Community Arts Center, Keck Observatory, Kilauea , Uncles Bamboo Tiki Bar w/ live music, cafes, food markets, Volcanoes Nat'l Park, Kamauna Caves and so much more.

    My mission is to make sure that you have what you need to make your visit a happy, and memorable experience ! This is a great place to relax and enjoy nature. Many people come to Kalapana to 'get away from it all and breath clean air, eat great food, soak up the sunshine, exercise, commune with nature, and meet some wonderful people. So come and find out 'what the aloha spirit really is'. We invite you to come to one of the most beautiful places on earth.

    Other accomodations are available as well, please inquire for details about our completely private studios attached to house on the side of building and Oceanfront cottages that are near by.

    PLEASE NOTE - there is NO POOL at this house. Ocean is walking distance - an easy 10 short blocks down the street.

    You will love this beautiful house in coastal Puna.
