The Magical Hawaii Cabin Getaway With Its Very Own Private Waterfall

The Hawaiian Islands welcome more than eight million tourists each year and are home to countless incredible hotels, resorts, cottages, bed and breakfasts, vacation rentals, and even treehouses. Many of these boast phenomenal views and an island-inspired atmosphere as part of their branding, but few of these spots will take you as off the beaten path as this gem.

Nestled along the coast between Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and Waipio Valley on Hawaii’s Big Island, this gem listed on Airbnb features ocean views, private waterfalls and swimming holes, as well as plenty of rustic charm.

The one bedroom, one bathroom cabin itself might be rustic, but you'll find everything you might need for a relaxing weekend getaway, including clean linens, a friendly owner, a small kitchen with refrigerator and stove…

...as well as an outdoor bathroom you likely won’t find elsewhere. Don't worry — it's private!

You could spend days exploring this property, with its private swimming holes, waterfalls, and hiking trails. Can you imagine a better way to spend a day in paradise than chasing waterfalls and swimming in the pristine waters that fill the natural pools below these stunning cascades?

But private waterfalls aren’t the only thing you’ll find at this one-of-a-kind Airbnb. Lush surroundings give way to panoramic views of the Hawaiian coast and the Pacific Ocean, and we can think of no better way to start your day than with a cup of coffee as you watch ships go sailing by and clouds parade down the coast.

Explore or relax by day, and at night, sit around the campfire, stargazing, talking story, and maybe even making s’mores.

Though located only 20 miles north of Hilo, and just one mile from the highway, the only sounds you’ll hear out here are flowing waterfalls, breezes rustling through the trees, and the calls of tropical birds. You will be greeted to this remote oasis by the owner’s two horses.

If you’re looking for a unique island getaway that will take you a million miles away from it all, this is it.

Rates start at just $85 per night — a total steal here in Hawaii — so what are you waiting for? If you’re interested, you can learn more and book your stay here.
