Truly a Hau'oli (Happy) Place Absolutely loved this house. Perfect for our anniversary staycation in Volcano. From the moment we stepped into the house we felt comfortable. It has a full kitchen, huge comfortable lanai looking out at the beautiful landscaped yard and nice living room area with the fire place. The bed was comfortable with the heated mattress, the bathroom was clean an stocked with towels. It was a quick drive to the Volcano National Park and an easy drive to Hilo. We would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely Perfect This bungalow is perfection. It is super clean and very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and the fire place in the living room came in handy on chilly nights. The house has everything you need but the stand out feature is the outdoor space. The porch was a great place to relax after a day of hiking, and is accessible from the living room and the bedroom. The yard has a fire pit (which we did not use) but used the seating to lounge in the sun. The location is just 5 minutes from Volcanos National Park. Check-in and Check-out was a breeze. We appreciated having our own covered car park at the foot of the front door which made loading/unloading the car super easy. This place will not disappoint. It is absolutely excellent and I highly recommend!!

Great Stay Near Volcanoes NP A great unit super convenient to Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. Less than 10 min. from the park so when we heard the volcano was erupting we could head over quickly. Also, not a bad drive to Hilo area attractions. The place was set up great and had everything we needed. Loved having meals out on the lanai, listening to the frogs and other rainforest critters. The owners were super responsive when we had one small issue. The cats welcoming us home after our daily adventures kept us from getting to homesick for our pets. We will highly recommend to friends and also colleagues that visit the area regularly working on wildlife conservation projects.

Lovely and quiet home We had a wonderful time in Volcano Village. The house is beautiful and equipped with everything one might need. It’s hard to beat the location within minutes of the National Park. We enjoyed breakfast on the covered porch that allowed us to enjoy the gorgeous setting even on rainy mornings.

Short Stay in Volcano Was a nice enough place, if a bit cluttered, and a bit small for a family, but we booked last minute. Comms were good and check-in was easy enough. A good option for small groups looking to stay near the NP.

Amazing Experience Hau’oli place is incredible! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and didn’t want to leave. The property is obviously well cared for. The decorations are fun and add to the experience. (Our daughter, age 8, loved the tiki doing the shakas.) The location is so close to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park that it is convenient to come and go as you please and enjoy the whole experience.

Overpriced and not as described! This place was easy to find as per the host msg. We checked in quite late around 8 ish night. The cleaning was poorly done Bathroom, furniture, refrigerator, floor, porch, dining area outside, microwave etc after long flight and rainy travel day we did not care and next day we cleaned things ourselves because we had to start our planned trip as we were in Hilo for 2 nights only. For next day morning the kitchen stuff was missing like coffee and sugar etc. in-fact coffee machine was not cleaned as well. The inside dining chairs are so uncomfortable that it was hard to have dinner and breakfast with kids. Outside dining was not an option because of cold and porch was not cleaned as well. After long hike day we thought to reach out to host and msg him. He offer us re cleaning while we occupied the unit or leave one day early and refund one night stay. I am not comfortable with first option and for second option, People pre-planned vacations, last minute reservation doesn’t work in Hawaii. We asked him to refund partially as accommodation seems to very overpriced in terms of services, fees what they charge to guest. He did not responded after that. We won’t recommend this place, you can get better services and accommodation in the similar rates in the same area.

The little tiki cottage was fantastic! Can’t say enough about the location (super close to Volcanoes Nat’l Park entrance), the backyard, and the character of the house. A perfect quiet place to serve as basecamp for our big island adventure. Worked great for our family of 4 but would be really good for a couple or solo traveler as well. Hosts are super communicative and welcoming. Thank you so much! Would definitely stay here again.
