Puna Zen Botanical Garden Retreat

Hôte très agréable dans une belle résidence. Que du positif!

Property was very welcoming and decorated with lots of aloha! Property has everything you need to enjoy time in and on the water.

The house was difficult to find, GPS brings you next door so the neighbors helped us find the house. Phone went to voicemail when I called for help but messages was active. The house was nice, clean but my biggest issue was we booked the house for the AC (which was actually just 1 mini split in the living room) but it had not been turned on all day so the house was a stifling 78 degrees upon arrival. We turned the AC on it was locked out at 70. We like it very cold when we sleep and instead was sweating to death. I tried to explain to the host that he should have posted that AC was controlled with app and that there was a 30 charge to use during the day. There was 1 box fan and 2 bedrooms so 1 group did not get fan. I did not feel that I was respected by the host, I was told that the climate was good and most people don’t even use AC when I asked to drop it below 70. I’m not other people and I wanted to use the AC. Otherwise the house had lots of rules, I’m glad we just did a sleepover and most things did not apply to us but I’ll share the pics of the rules since the host did not. And last by not least this house is NOT near Volcano National park, it’s about 35/40 minutes away. If you love hearing nature and sweating while you sleep this is the place for you. If you like things convenient, quiet and cool this is not the place for you. Overall it’s a very cute house, I just feel the listing needs to be clarified.

This is a beautiful property that is out in the country and makes you feel like you are out in nature with all the sounds of the frogs and birds around you. It is a comfortable place where you can relax after a long day of site seeing. We enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful island home. Very well maintained and equipped.
