This place was awesome. Beautiful setting, clean and cool house. Would recommend this place to any family staying in Volcano.
This was a great place to stay to explore Volcanoes National Park. The house was extremely clean and comfortable. The hot tub was fantastic after a day of hiking in the park! Highly recommend!
Beautiful house near Volcanoes NP. It was perfect for our family of 7. Highly recommend.
If you want a nice place to stay close to Volcanoes NP, this is an easy choice. We were about 5 minutes from the front gates which was amazing during the eruption event that took place while we were there. The house was spacious and in a very quiet neighborhood.
This was a lovely home that served as our base for one night during a brief visit to Volcano National Park. The rooms were comfortable and we enjoyed falling asleep to the sounds of frogs and other chirping critters at night. It was an easy drive to the entrance of the National Park.
Lovely home, clean and comfortable
We loved this property! So relaxing nestled in the rain forest! House was beautiful and one of the cleanest we’ve seen. Very well taken care of. We loved the hot tub nestled in the trees. This place is only 10 mins from volcano viewing which was so convenient. A few restaurants and a store close by. We loved the farmers market on Saturday.
We had a wonderful visit at this lovely, welcoming home!
Loved the property, hot tub, and location! Everything was as listed and super easy. Would highly recommend!
The home is spacious. We enjoyed the backyard with covered deck and covered hot tub. It rained a lot during our stay, so it was nice to still be able to enjoy outside. It is close to Volcanos Nat’l Park and not too far from Hilo
The outside of the property looked beautiful, but the interior was disappointing! The pictures do not match what the inside of the house currently looks like. The inside was tired and unclean. There were hairs in the bed sheets, some of the bed sheets were ripped, dust was covering the furniture, the interior smelled musty, and most importantly the upstairs toilets did not flush making the bathrooms smell gross. We contacted the property manager about this problem. We could see that he read the text, but he never responded.
We loved our stay in volcano and the unit was perfect for our family of 5
Wonderful home for our vacation. Spacious rooms… the hot tub was amazing.We were lucky enough to have the volcano erupt when we were staying here -location to volcano. National Park can’t be beat.Highly recommend!!!
A review is only as good as if I am candid. We brought our whole family here to experience the Volcano area. This was our second time staying here. The first time was in 2016. We had a great time, but I will say that the place felt a little tired. The elements of Volcano are hard on the houses, I am sure. We only used the hot tub once. We washed some bedding before use due to it feeling not clean. The host assured me it was, but my eyes said different. My suggestion would be to update the bedding and towels as they are very worn. Also, the sofa could use a good cleaning. The bones of the house are simply beautiful. It just needs a bit of love. Overall, it was a nice start to our vacation. Make sure you bring everything you need food wise with you. I would recommend this house to rent for sure. I am sure the host wants it top notch!.
This beautiful home is tastefully decorated and equipped with everything. It is so relaxing to sit on the patio listening to the song birds in the tropical garden. It is very convenient for visiting Volcano Park.
Beautiful house and location, highly recommend!
Great location close to the village and national park, with lush and lovely landscaping and classic Volcano Ohia and fern forest all around. The home itself is very spacious and comfortable, with huge windows all around to enjoy the cool morning (or evening) air and birdsong. The kitchen has everything we needed and the hidden hot tub was certainly a favorite. Comfy beds! Some minor appliance issues but owner Adam was responsive, communicated well and gave prompt assistance. We would certainly stay again!
The house is in a super quiet and private neighborhood very close to Volcano village and the Volcano National park (but too far to walk to them). Jungle all around it, you can only see a little bit of one other place. The home is very environmentally friendly, it’s got solar electricity and uses processed rain water for the water supply. The kitchen, dining, living areas and covered porch and half bath are all on the main floor. Three bedrooms and two full baths are upstairs (one bath is in the master bedroom, the other is in the hall). Heating was via a single central mini split unit so we had to leave doors open to ensure the furthest rooms got warmed up (Volcano can get a bit chilly at night). It was clean and the owner was responsive to messages. But it was a bit under equipped compared to similar places we’ve stayed and some things needed replacing; sheets in both beds we used had holes and tears, there’s only a dustpan and brush but no broom or vacuum, and a couple other minor things of that nature. But overall we had a great stay, had lots of space, and it’s a good location.
Gorgeous property and fantastic location at the volcano erupted whilst staying here
We had a great stay, easy access to Volcano Nat’l Park. Hot tub was relaxing, great grill! Thanks for letting us visit!
Mahalo nui loa for a great staycation!
Our family enjoyed our stay in this cozy home in Volcano!
This was the perfect place to stay to maximize our visit to the park. The house was spacious and clean. The box of chocolates was a welcome touch! We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone planning a trip to Volcanoes.
I'm hard-pressed to think of anything negative about this property. We were in town for the Hawaii Bird Conservation Marathon, which started at the Volcano golf course, so we needed a place nearby. This VRBO was only a couple miles from the start line, so a great location. The village of Volcano is very small, but we found a good restaurant and a general store next door with a surprisingly great drink selection. As other reviewers have noted, the house is somewhat near others but you get a total sense of seclusion when staying here since it is tucked in among the trees. We only heard other people twice in three days. The house itself is beautiful, with hardwood floors and nice updated kitchen and baths. There's a great TV in case you want to watch television in paradise. The furnishings and bedding are comfortable. Everyone loved the hot tub in the backyard! There's plenty of space in the house, with two full baths and a half-bath, three bedrooms, a formal dining room, and a nice deck. It's rain forest, but I saw fewer bugs than I see in my own house in the US Midwest. It's a water-catchment system, but totally potable, plus fine for showering and washing clothes. Even if I didn't need a place near the start of the marathon, I would still stay at this location, as it was beautiful. Bigger and better than the place where we stayed in Kona, for less money. Check-in was extremely easy. No need for conversations with the host. A perfect stay!
The home and property are just beautiful. The hot tub was a dream to use and welcome at the end of a long day hiking in the park. The house comes with all the amenities a family needs. It’s very spacious and the kitchen is well appointed! The property made our stay a real treat!
We loved this space! The location cannot be beat and the layout of this house was great! We loved being close to the tiny town and also the national park. The house was as described and we really loved the layout. Recommend!
Very nice property - very close to Volcano (the town) and the Park.
Only downside was noisy neighbors (for one night) in the house to the southwest.
There were no screens on the windows (and no ac); therefore we could not open the windows due to insects, so it was too warm at night to sleep.
The master suite was nice, but the other bedrooms were insufficiently furnished (barely a bedside table and nowhere to put clothes)
The washing machine had mold, so we didn't use it.
One bathroom had blue tape all around the window and was jerry-rigged with a piece of wood (and did not open)
There were insufficient towels (very much so).
There were far fewer utensils, pots, etc than I am accustomed to in other VRBO.
It was filthy under the living room couch cushion.
Kind of annoying to see a lot of signs about "don't do this or that" when in fact the place was inadequate.
Great stay in a great location! Everything was as shown and it was very peaceful! The singing frogs were a wonderful bonus😊
