From your window, you can see the plume of smoke where the lava meets the ocean creating the newest land on earth. Smoking Volcano, Glistening Ocean, and miles and miles of dramatic black lava fields are all part of your expansive view and elemental experience here.

The Phoenix house is completely yours.
Access to all kitchen tools, bathroom, and loft.
There is a front and side porch as well.
You will share a driveway and parking area with the Ohana House, about 200 yards away.
The Phoenix House is in an eclectic, rustic neighborhood built onto cooled down, black lava fields at the feet of Kilauea Volcano (about 4 miles away). Over the years, other adventurous souls have discovered Kalapana Gardens and decided to call it home, so there are alot more people and dwellings here in recent years. So yes, it`s still a private neighborhood, but there are many interesting houses and new residents around.
Besides being the sunniest, driest part of the island, you are surrounded by epic views of the volcano, and black lava fields as far as the eye can see. Yet it’s very close to festive farmers markets, black sandy beaches, and gorgeous coastal drives. Enjoy this elemental vortex unlike any other!
We are near:
* The famous `Red Road` (one of the `Top 10 most beautiful drives in America`) (5 min away)
* Kalapana-Kaimu`s Authentic Local Hawaiian Style weekly Farmer`s Markets on Wednesday Nights, and Saturday Mornings featuring the finest local people, music, yummy foods & crafts, Uncle`s Awa Bar--a festive scene not to be missed! (5 min)
* Kehena [Clothing Optional] Beach w/Sunbathing, Swimming, Sunday Drum Circle, Dolphins & Whales
* Pahoa town - A 15 minute drive gets you to Restaurants, Health food store, Shopping, Pharmacy and Services in historic Pahoa Village.
PAHOA, HAWAII was just awarded 2nd place in Outside Magazine`s Travel Awards 2014 for `Best Adventure Hub`!
Also, we are a little off-the-beaten path, and understand that we are not for everyone.
Here are some quirks / guidelines to be aware of:
* Quiet Hours from 9pm-8am, as there are neighbors nearby and sound travels easily on the lava
* The Phoenix House is one of a few awesome homes at Jade`s Lava Sanctuary. It`s generally a private neighborhood though, and there`s a private driveway to come in.
* There are a few long term, considerate caretakers that live on site. Also the cleaning staff is usually on site from 10am-2pm in case you need anything. Everyone is friendly and considerate, but they will leave you alone unless you ask for something.
* We are off-grid, please be conservative with power, especially at night when we run on batteries. Don`t leave lights on all night.
* You might see an occasional mosquito, blister beetle, or gecko, this is the tropics..
We do have two fans in the Phoenix House, but there is no A/C. Yes you can run the fan at night while you`re sleeping.
* Yes, we have ample power and good wifi.
A car is necessary. You don`t need a 4wd to stay here, but the clearance to the road is kinda low so drive carefully. We do offer car rental sometimes. : )
The weather is generally always warm, sunny and nice, about 90% of the time. : ) It rains frequently, but usually for short periods of time.
Considerate Caretaker is available and on-site. Let us know if you need anything to be more comfortable during your stay! :)

Please respect Quiet Hours from 9pm - 8am, so as to respect the neighbors.

- If you need an EARLY CHECK IN / LATE CHECK OUT please let us know at least 24 HOURS IN ADVANCE and we will try to accommodate you -- please note that it is NOT GUARANTEED THOUGH, and it depends on our cleaners and our booking schedule. If we are able to change things around to accommodate your request, please note that there will be a convenience charge of $20 per hour that that we are able to give early / late.

REGARDING PETS:
- Only 1-2 Pets allowed upon request and payment of the Pet Fee.
IMPORTANT: If you do bring your pet, YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE THEM ALONE & UNSUPERVISED IN THE HOUSE! As we have found the hard way that they will then bark non-stop and disturb the neighbors, as well as possibly do damage to the house when left unattended. So please do not plan on bringing them and then leaving them alone in the house while you go on excursions, etc.
Also any dog (including service dogs) must be leashed at all times on premises.
Also, you must clean up after them or there will be a charge for that, thanks. (Sorry but we have learned things the hard way that we need to say these things).
Regarding Laundry:
- If you need to do laundry, the washer & dryer are located at the back of the Main House nearby (two story house with green porch, behind the red Lava Temple). However, please only do laundry from 8-10am; or 2-6pm as we are off-grid and also the cleaners need it from 10-2pm. Yes you can use our detergent. Plz dont leave your laundry sitting in the washer or dryer, thanks. Mahalo!
Mahalo nui loa for keeping this a safe, peaceful place! :)
