About This Spring

The Rainbow Cottage is part of the Puna Rainforest Retreat, situated in a secluded 20-acre estate surrounded by rainforest within the Puna Forest Reserve, 4 miles from Pahoa in the Big Island of Hawaii. Two volcanic hot spring tubs are available to guests of the Puna Rainforest Retreat.

We loved waking up to rays of sunshine, dancing steam from the steam vents, soaking in the tubs, and walking through the rainforest.

The Rainbow Cottage offers a serene environment with a small kitchenette, full bathroom, queen bedroom with ocean view lanai, and a living room with a couch that can sleep one small person. Guests can enjoy the swimming pool, two volcanic hot spring tubs, steam vents, 1.2 mile rainforest trail, orchard, and private retreat setting.

The property uses natural cleaning products and non-toxic pest control, ensuring a healthy environment. The hosts live on-site to ensure guests’ needs are met. The retreat also includes other accommodations such as studios and two-bedroom cottages with various amenities and views. The listing can be found on AirBnB here.
