This house is less than one mile (1.6km) to the entrance of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park! Ola'a (meaning "lively" in Hawaiian) Plantation House is a 1,700 square foot home in the heart of Volcano Village featuring vintage Hawaiian furnishings and original art. The house is owned and has been thoughtfully updated by the co-founder of Kilauea Lodge and former Magnum PI make-up artist Albert Jeyte (the house was part of the Kilauea Lodge properties.) You are hosted by one of his daughters, Alexx.

My Dad Albert and Step-mom Lorna co-founded Kilauea Lodge a restaurant and inn. They "retired" and sold the Lodge in 2018 but kept four of the charming off-site properties as vacation rentals. I'm helping them out by hosting these rentals. I love to travel and want the places I stay to be clean, comfortable, and encourage long talks and laughter--just like our homes. I'm a "bookish" person and especially love cozying up on the couch with the fireplace going and reading contemporary fiction, mysteries, or historical fiction. Reading has taught me so much about other people and their lives, loves, challenges, and victories. I am a mood reader, library lover, and don't have a problem DNFing (Did Not Finish) a book that's not for me. I've selected some of my favorite recent books for you to enjoy during your visit. More...I also love walking in nature, photography, drinking coffee, cooking with my family, tasting local food, and playing table games Codenames, Dixit, and Ticket to Ride. These are all things that you can do when you stay at one of our homes. Volcano Village is one of my very favorite places in the world and I hope you come spend some time here!

This home is located in the heart of Volcano Village a small artists’ community located just a few minutes away from the entrance to Volcanoes National Park. Enjoy 2 bedrooms, one with king bed and the second with two twin beds, one full bathroom between the two bedrooms, and an extra vanity and sink inside the second bedroom. The living room with gas fireplace has plenty of room to hang out and play games, read, and a smart television with WiFi for streaming. A full kitchen with sunroom and large garden with outside seating await you. This home is directly across the quiet street from "Tutu's Place" and can be rented together for wonderful larger gatherings accommodating up to 10 guests. We have four total houses for rent. At 3,750 feet altitude, the town of Volcano, and most of the National Park, enjoy a cooler climate than the sea-level communities. The private road, Hale Ohia Lane, is treed with a wide variety of old growth species and immediately takes one back in time to the days of Old Hawai'i. The home is filled with original art by Hawaiian artists, Hawaiian furniture and fabric.
