Thank you this was a beautiful home. Me and my family had so much fun and enjoyed the property until next time. Be safe and God bless.
The jungalow was a beautiful and clean home, well appointed and just minutes away from the national park.
Great spot for exploring Volcano National Park! Everything was clean, cozy and comfy. My kids loved the chickens and roosters on the property.
Perfect for what we needed of one night

Our stay was perfect! Great communication and great place to stay. The chickens added a great entertainment .
What a fabulous place. Loved the cottage, the chickens, and the location. Even got to see Kilauea erupting. Can't wait to come back again.
We had a fantastic stay at the Jungalow. The location was very close to Hawaii Volcano’s National Park and not too far from Hilo. We were able to explore the area and have a convenient home base. Also, it was soo cute! If we ever return to Hawaii we would definitely stay here again.
So near National Park that we could take a break at the house during rain. Very well equipped kitchen with Kurdig and great tea selection. If you need groceries, buy them at the General Store in the park at the military camp. Open 8-8 and has everything. Much better than the grocery store in Volcano Village which is not even as big as some we’ve seen in the high Sierras for hikers. Only complaint in Jungalow is need more light in every room.
This home is the perfect location for exploring Volcanoes National Park. It was cozy, clean, spacious, and very well equipped. It had everything we needed. We loved the string lights on the front porch, electric fireplace, comfy beds, and chatty chickens in the yard. The owners thought of everything you could need - the coffee, shampoo and conditioner, and laundry detergent were really thoughtful touches to include.The home also offered privacy and solitude, yet it is located in a neighborhood close to the park and restaurants. The Jungalow was easily accessible coming from either Hilo or the Kona side. I would highly recommend it to anyone coming to stay in the area. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect stay!
We enjoyed our one night stay. This property is really close to the park.
Very nice place & very convenient to the Park.
The Jungalow was such a wonderful little piece of heaven in the rainforest at the base of the volcano. It was very clean and communication was very responsive.We enjoyed the location as there were no neighbors, at least you couldn't see any. Our stay was very enjoyable!
Excellent accommodations. Exceptionally clean. We have stayed in Volcano 2 times before in the Hiiaka House…which is no longer a rental. I found Jungalo Bungalow online and liked what I saw. I strongly recommend a stay here if the Volcano National Park is in your plans. …or one could choose to stay at Volcano House for hundreds of dollars more plus having to buy all your meals! We were very pleased with Jungalo Bungalow!
The Jungalow was fabulous!! It was perfect launching site for our adventures in Volcano and Hilo. The beds were comfortable and the teenagers loved having their own rooms. It had everything we needed and exceeded our expectations!
The Jungalow was beautiful and came with everything we needed for our group of 5. The location was perfect for our first visit to Volcanoes national park and other sights on the windward side of the big island. The wild chickens were the favorites for the grandkids. Would highly recommend and book again.
The Jungalow is cute and convenient. It was clean and comfortable, and had everything we needed for our stay. My 3 year old loved the chickens! We were fortunate that we were able to see the volcano erupt and loved being close enough that we could go to Volcano Park during the day and again at night.
The Jungalow is so inviting and charming! I wish we had more time to enjoy the tranquil setting and the lovely home - and in such proximity to Volcano NP! Every detail was thought of, and the host was easy to contact, and the Jungalow would be a lovely place to unwind while visiting the Big Island!
We only stayed 2 nights but I wish we had booked 4 nights. The home was spotless and had absolutely everything we needed. All three beds were so comfortable (a little softer than we are use to, but so cozy). The home is decorated with so much thought, and was a wonderful place to spend time, with plenty of space for 4 adults. The location is perfect if you want easy access to the national park, which is about a 5 minute drive. Some small restaurants and shops in the small town. When we wanted more options, we drove the 40 minutes into Hilo which was an easy drive. The roads are excellent and there is so much to do in and around Hilo. We spent each morning sitting on the front lanai watching the chickens and chicks wander around the yard. There is a full coffee station stocked with coffee, tea, cocoa and everything you need which was a nice touch. Laundry with plenty of soap, plenty of towels and we loved all the blankets in each room. Thank you! Would absolutely stay again.
The property was perfect for our visit to the Volcano National Park. It was nice that it had coffee, spices and other basic cooking supplies. The beds were very comfortable and it was nice having 2 full baths. Everything was very clean and well maintained. Just a wonderful stay. My only comment is not about the accommodations but just to plan ahead from a food perspective. We stopped at a grocery store on the way out of Hilo and bought food as a lot of restaurants close early.
Loved our time at the Jungalow. So close to the park!! Easy to “pop” in… we were fortunate enough to see some actual lava flow/fountaining! We also were blessed with a clear night… seeing the stars from the park is truly incredible. Really appreciated the fireplace and the heaters as it was definitely much cooler than the Kona side. Spent some time on the porch watching the chickens… so fun to watch them interact!
A quiet night by the volcano followed by enthusiastic chicken greetings in the morning!
We started out by staying on the Kona side. We also knew that to go to the National Park would require more time, so we booked one night with you. It truly was not enough time. Your online listing does not do you justice. All 5 of us wanted more time in the Jungalow! Everything was perfect! Cozy, charming, peaceful and everything we needed to unwind. We will plan accordingly the next time we come. Thank you.
Super close to KÄ«lauea visitor center and amazing house to sleep at. Loved that we could just show up with our family and have just about everything provided. We bought some food to cook for breakfast and was able to cook for ourselves.
This was the perfect place to stay as we waited for Pele to make her appearance on Kilauea. It's an easy 10 minute drive to the national park, and Hilo town is less than 45 minutes away. The house is cozy and comfortable, nestled in a quiet neighborhood. Lots of thoughtful amenities and charm.
The five of us very much enjoyed the property. The two young children were enamored by the wild chickens.Rain Forest setting very interesting.I could not figure out how to turn on lamp in one of the bedrooms.Beds were reasonably good.
Very very conveniently located! It's about ten minutes from Volcanoes National Park, and not too far from other areas of interest as well. We visited from Kona so the difference in climate was extremely refreshing. Love the consideration placed in the small things too, like heated blankets and individual space heaters. It does get a little chilly in the evening at that altitude but I love the cooler nights. Thanks for the opportunity to stay!
Staying in this jungle oasis, it's hard to imagine how close you are to an active volcano and all the destruction and lava flows there. The house is even prettier than in the pictures, and the landscaping which seems completely natural is gorgeous.The beds are very comfortable with soft, warm comforters for the chilly nights at that elevation. Wifi was excellent and living and dining rooms were quite comfortable.Our host was wonderful with excellent communication before our arrival and she left several notes and information about the area that made us feel right at home. The small village of Volcano has the basics and the people are welcoming. If you like Thai food, you must go to the Tuk Tuk Food truck at the Volcano golf course. Servings are large and her food is the best. We really enjoyed staying at a place that was very much tropical "old" Hawaii and hope to return in the future.
We greatly enjoyed our stay at the Jungalow House. It was pristine clean and the host was always available bia text to answer questions. This house is 5 min from Volcanoes National Park and perfect jumping off point for the while island.

We thoroughly enjoyed the location, coziness of the house, available cookware, and dishware, cleanliness, and the other amenities. It was so nice to have a coffee and tea selection- an extra bonus. Mahalo
