This Hawaiian Rainforest Cabin Will Make You Feel Like You’re in a Movie

My environment greatly impacts my mood. When I want to unwind and relax, the space around me must be clean and organized. When I want to be creative and inspired, I work best in areas of my home with large windows. And when I start to experience burnout and stress, I need to escape — I need a place that is dreamlike and heavenly. Fortunately, I’ve found just the place.

A vacation rental in Honoka’a, Hawaii, has everything you need to make you feel like you're living in a dream. You’ll not only find cozy furnishings, but this Hawaii Airbnb is located in the rainforest with a private waterfall. Booking a stay here is reserving your own slice of paradise.

There are some incredible places to stay in Hawaii. From treehouses to bungalows to oceanfront vacation rentals, you’ll find many options for some time away from the demands of reality. However, located in historic Honoka’a Town and surrounded by rainforest is this incredible cabin Airbnb. It’s hard to find anything quite like it.

The highlight of this rental is the property. This cabin is surrounded by lush rainforest, so you’ll feel all alone and away from any crowds. The cabin overlooks the Waiulili Stream and gulch, but there’s nothing quite like the waterfall. In various areas of the property, the stream tumbles over rocks of all sizes, creating small waterfalls. Eventually, it cascades over a rocky cliff, creating a breathtaking 50-foot waterfall that is located right by the home.

You can sit next to the falls, listening to the water flow — it’s nature therapy at its best. You can also sit in the grassy areas surrounded by lush vegetation. Benches and seating areas throughout the property allow you to find the perfect place to relax.

And you don’t even need to be outdoors to enjoy the beauty of this property. Inside the Airbnb, you’ll find large windows that provide unobstructed views of the falls. You may need to pinch yourself to ensure you aren't dreaming. This is your reality for a few days.

Inside the Airbnb, you’ll find everything you need for a romantic couple’s getaway or even for some time all by yourself. There is one bedroom and one bathroom in this home, comfortably accommodating up to two adults. You’ll also find a small kitchen and dining room to make meal time easy and hassle-free.

You’ll also notice many details that add character and personality to this home, such as hand-painted images on the walls and flooring. There’s so much here to unleash your creative side, help you feel inspired, and allow you to relax.

While we could easily spend our entire trip enjoying the private waterfall views and listening to the sounds of the rainforest, this cabin is near several bucket-list-worthy destinations. For example, this vacation rental is just a short drive from the beautiful Waipio Lookout. We also recommend you spend some time in Honoka’a by browsing the many locally-owned shops and boutiques. Make sure you visit Tex Drive-In as well to order some malasadas and other delicious Hawaiian food.

Don't be surprised if you find yourself questioning if you are in a dream when you stay at this Airbnb on the Big Island. It’s truly heavenly.
