Talk Story with an Advertiser: Kilauea Lodge & Restaurant
The historic Kilauea Lodge and Restaurant is a rainforest retreat in beautiful Volcano Village, Hawai‘i. This TripAdvisor Hall of Fame-winning lodge features 16 unique accommodations, including four off-site cottages. Amenities include tropical gardens, an on-site restaurant, and a resort hot tub.
Each room encompasses the history of the lodge and the characteristics that make Hawai‘i Island such an unforgettable vacation destination. Local art and flowers, stained glass windows, and all the features of a 4-star hotel make each accommodation the ideal place for your getaway. Each of the rooms and off-site cottages have their own charm, which can be viewed by visiting the Kilauea Lodge website.
Highway West Vacations purchased Kilauea Lodge from Lorna and Albert Jeyte in the summer of 2018. The timing couldn’t have been more challenging—with three months of constant earthquakes and the incredible loss of business due to the Leilani eruption and Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park being closed. Fortunately, they did not ever have to close their doors or lay off any employees during that time.
Kilauea Lodge was built in 1938 as a YMCA camp called Hale O Aloha. Besides being listed on both the National and State Historical sites, it is home to the International Fireplace of Friendship. The new owners are continuing to welcome guests from all over the world, sharing the aloha spirit.
Director of Marketing Samira Marjani explains, “Our customers are both kama‘āina and those traveling from out of state and country. Guests who are here to explore nature, relax, and celebrate special occasions. Our lodge provides the perfect atmosphere for a serene stay, surrounded by lush gardens and beauty.”
Samira expresses, “We are so grateful to everyone that came to Volcano to support the local businesses last summer. We invite everyone to come experience our enhanced dining menus at our restaurant. Our gift shop also features some of the best local items and keepsakes.”
The Kilauea Lodge restaurant is open to the public and serves some of the best breakfasts, brunches, lunches, and dinners on the island! Dinner reservations are highly encouraged, as this is a very popular restaurant destination.
The lodge also welcomes groups, such as weddings, corporate retreats, and other special events.
Whether you live on Hawai‘i Island or are a visitor, you are sure to delight in an overnight stay or even stopping by for a meal at the Kilauea Lodge.
