Other things to note
Aloha!

Please note that 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 very private neighborhood though, and there is 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, but yes you can run the fan in the bedroom while you're sleeping.
* You might see an occasional mosquito, blister beetle or gecko or roach, this is the tropics..
We do have two fans in the Phoenix House, but there is no A/C.
* 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! :)

Neighborhood highlights

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!

The House lies in close proximity to numerous Eco-destinations and community activities:

* 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"!
