Is it Safe to Visit Hawaii after the Eruption?
The Big Island experienced an eruption of Kilauea during the summer of 2018, marking some of the most significant seismic activity in decades.
Vast, rural, and sleepy, the Puna region of the Big Island is among the most low-key places to stay in all of Hawaii. With good prices, outdoor activities, and proximity to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, staying in Puna is a no-brainer for those with an eye for adventure. But the lack of hotels and large-scale accommodations found elsewhere on the island can make finding (let alone securing) the right home base a difficult task. If you can manage to book a good vacation rental, you’ll be rewarded with a comfortable, adventurous experience that only Puna can provide.
Positioned near Pohoiki & Kehena Black Sand Beaches and along the historic Red Road, the Black Sand Beach House has long been a favorite for vacationers of every stripe. With two bathrooms and two bedrooms, a full living room, dining room, and kitchen, it’s the perfect home away from home for beach lovers.
Nestled within the native Ohia rain forest, Hau’oli Place Cottage is a perennial favorite of repeat travelers to eastern Hawaii. Hauoli Place’s central location allows quick access to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The cottage is decorated with a fun tiki theme that harkens back to old Hawaii and is well equipped for a comfortable stay.
