Great location

This property is perfect if you’re visiting volcano national park. We were able to get into the park in a few minutes once the volcano started erupting with zero wait. By the time we left there were cars lined up down the highway. The house itself is peaceful and very relaxing. We would definitely stay here again.

Serenity

Great location close to Volcano NP. We monitored the USGS webcam and saw Episode 22 just beginning so we hopped in the car and were at the overlook moments later. We did not have to jockey for a position or circle looking for a parking space. The sound of the coquis at night was very comforting. The fireplace kept the chill away in the evenings. After the hike to the green sand beach, a relaxing shower w instant-on hot water was a pleasure. The lunchtime fresh poke in Hilo at Poke to Your Taste was awesome and of course mochis from Two Ladies in Hilo is a must.

Great location!

This was a great property between Hilo, Kilauea, and Punalu'u Beach. The property had everything we needed to make meals and we loved the separate twin beds for the kids. So nice being so close to the volcano, it made for easy access and a short drive after a day of hiking. Everyone loved the day bed on the porch and the wildlife that came to visit.

The best of the best!

We had an amazing stay with this property! The location is perfect—just a short drive to Volcano National Park, making it super convenient for exploring. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, allowing us to fully relax after a day of adventure. The home itself is clean, modern, and well-maintained, with all the amenities we needed. One of our favorite features was the old wood fireplace, which added so much charm and kept us warm during the cool evenings at this elevation. The outside full-size hanging swing bed is the most comfortable place to relax. If you’re looking for a cozy, comfortable, and well-located stay near the park, this is the perfect spot. Highly recommend!

Adorable Bungalow in a Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our stay in the house. It was very clean when we arrived plus some thoughtful touches in the décor and starter amenities and the kitchen was well-stocked. The host was communicative up through the check-in day, and although I did have questions with the check-in instructions, the host answered promptly and the instructions ended up being accurate. Super convenient location off of the main road and perfect for exploring this section of the Big Island. We would stay here again!

Perfect location close to the National Park

The main purpose of my family's trip to the Big Island was to visit Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. This property was nestled in a quiet neighborhood just minutes from the National Park entrance, which was perfect for us! The property manager was kind enough to have the housekeepers leave lights on for us as we were arriving well after dark ... and it was dark! One temporary confusion was a locked gate we didn't anticipate to drive onto the property. Fortunately, the code was the same as the house code, so we were able to gain entry. The description also mentioned a nonexistent carport. No big deal, but the check in information should probably be updated for future guests. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well appointed and useful. There was even a coffee grinder! Toaster and toaster oven were available, but no oven and no dishwasher. Again, we didn't miss them, though. The BEST attribute of this house was the outdoor day bed suspended from the porch ceiling. We each enjoyed our time hanging out on it. Such a unique feature! The quiet of the neighborhood (aside from nature sounds) was very restorative. There was a wood stove in the living area which we attempted to use, but it seemed to be for decorative purpose only. Everything else in the house was in good working order. The only real negative was an intermittent odor which we attributed to probably being related to the damp climate. A great stay overall! Recommend!

Communication lacked days prior to arrival and during our stay as well. There was ONLY salt, pepper and some old plastic non-labeled bottle of what was probably oil in the kitchen. We needed more towels for the length of our stay. I knew nothing of having to open/close and use the gate code during out stay. Everything was clean!

We loved being able to experience the village of Volcano at such a charming house. It was clean and extremely well kept, and we enjoyed the lanai out front. The location to the Volcanoes National Park was amazing; such a unique area of the island. We are glad we were able to stay and not just do a day trip.

A wonderful stay

My husband and I stayed at this beautiful cottage / house for four nights in September. We absolutely loved it. It's sparkling clean, and fully equipped with everything we needed. We did our own cooking, without eating out, so we really appreciated the kitchen. The owners put together a great "manual" with various procedures, activity recommendations, and more. The location is peaceful and perfect for visiting the National Park, Hilo, and the coast.
