The owner sent messages and met with us and kindly told us where it is and what to do. There were local coffee for us to taste and interesting local travel books to read. She mentioned about the potential noise from the local Coqui frogs, but it didn't bother us and it sounded beautiful. She provided extra heaters for the room and the bed which was so convenient. We washed all dishes before leaving in the morning to show our respect.

Fantastic rooms, cosy, comfortable (very comfortable bed) and done with exceptional esprit. A unique experience. We actually looked forward to be back in the room after we finished our hiking tours.
Located on The Big Island of Hawaii, this accommodation is less than 5 minutes’ drive to Volcanoes National Park and Volcano Art Center Gallery. Free Wi-Fi is provided in all rooms.

Honestly, I loved this place so much. My little cottage was perfect –– cozy, well designed, and had all of the amenities you can want. Carlos is an absolute gem and his breakfast was amazing. I will definitely come back often. Feels like a home away from home.
Ekomomai Retreat, a property with a garden, is situated in Volcano, 37 km from Pana'ewa Rainforest Zoo, 41 km from University of Hawaii, Hilo, as well as 44 km from The Pacific Tsunami Museum.

We enjoyed the location. We like the extra things that was provided. For example; the cooler, beach mat, googles etc.
The surrounding landscape is very nice and cute.
Hawaii Volcano National Park is 10 miles from this holiday home. Overlooking the tall Fern Forest jungles, guests can enjoy a fully equipped communal kitchen and hot tub.
Offering a sauna, Aloha Junction B&B sits on 1.3 acres of private, fully landscaped property. Guests are 10 minutes' walk from local shops and restaurants. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is 3 km away....

The room was great; loved the atmosphere and comfort. Also, the Thai restaurant right down the street was exceptional. The proximity to Volcanoes National Park was also great. I would stay there again.
Located 1 mile from Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, this Volcano historical lodge features a hot tub. Lava viewing at Halema'uma'u Crater is 4 miles away.

Amazing little boutique hotel in the rain forest. It was quaint but well cared for. Great option to allow you to spend a full day exploring Volcanoes National Park and then have an early start on the drive to Kona (so you can stop for lots of adventures along the way). We loved our stay.
Volcano Eco Cabin Retreat is a chalet situated in Volcano, 16 km from Kilauea and 9.6 km from Volcano National Park's entrance.

Absolutely adorable cabin in a serene setting. The owners were very easy to communicate with, everything worked great. Great base to explore the Volcano NP region!

The green, beautiful lush forest-like atmosphere in Volcano was so breathtaking! It was peaceful and quiet (except at night) you could hear the little frogs (koki frogs) nonstop but you eventually rest and they fade as you get closer to sleep.
Even driving feels awesome!

The park was very crowded around dusk.
The park was very crowded around dusk. There were lots of cars and few places to park. It might not be that way if the volcano had not been erupting. Because of previous eruptions, part of the rim road was blocked making fewer places to actually view the caldera. Make a reservation at one of the 2 restaurants at the Volcano House for dinner around sunset for the best views. Take a sweater or sweatshirt. The wind was chilly in June. We ate at the Rim restaurant. The food was very good. Expect to pay over $35 per person without cocktails. We were dressed for a nice restaurant and were disappointed that so many people were so very casual. But, it is vacation and Hawaii.

The volcano itself was absolutely incredible.
The volcano itself was absolutely incredible. Doesn't matter how old you are, it's just one of those things that fascinates and draws you in. Must see for anyone who has the opportunity since you never know when it will shut down.

Volcano National Park is amazing!
Volcano National Park is amazing! I would plan to spend at least a day and a half there if you are visiting Big Island. There is so much to do - the highlights include hiking across a crater and visiting during the dark (after sunset or before sunrise) to see the eruption!

Although our accommodation here was nothing amazing, the location cannot be left out of your big island itinerary! I wish someone had have told us to visit the National Park after sunset (or at sunrise) before our final day here!! That would be my top tip to people staying in this area. It would have been great to see the glowing lava.

Got to see the crater smoking with hot lava, but the weather was cool and misty/foggy, so no "orange glow." The place was packed with tourists, even so. Parking lots overflowed. We enjoyed most the early morning (6am) walk to the eruption site: very few people. Many nene sitings. The Volcano House restaurant has a less-expensive sister, the Rim restaurant, right next door. Good food, great views, but like everywhere on the Island, trés expensive. Next time I would bring more money!
We loved everything about this place! Peaceful, very well furnished, perfect location (5 minutes apart from Hawaii volcanoes national park), super clean.. everything you can really need during a holiday is provided by the lovely Pam and Dean! Also they gave us very useful highlights for visiting the park during our stay. Continental breakfast was abundant and delicious. We have travelled a lot in the past years, but we can definitely say that Pam and Dean’s bnb is one of the best where we have ever stayed. thank you very much!
Having the breakfast available in the fridge each day was very convenient. The breakfast was plentiful and tasty. I might have preferred having more breakfast choices (we were there two nights and would like to have been able to try breakfasts 3 or 4, for example), but the quality of the breakfasts was great. The location is perfect for Volcanos NP, and there are a few places to eat in the area that are pretty good. The B&B property is very pretty and has some historic charm. Parking was very convenient to the room.
The home was exceptionally clean and well maintained. Communication with the owner was easy. Location in a rainforest just a couple of miles from Volcanoes National Park was perfect! The hot tub was an added bonus and great after a cool rainy day touring the park. The value for price was unbeatable. I highly recommend this property and will stay here again next time I am on this side of Big Island!
Host met us on arrival and settled us into the house which was surrounded by rainforest. Coffee,tea, and local handmade chocolate with booklets of suggestions for dining and exploring. Susan pleasantly answered our questions and had umbrellas hanging on the covered porch which came in handy visiting Volcanoes National Park which is only 10 minutes away.
Delightful little 5-room B&B surrounded by jungle and 5 minutes' drive from Volcanoes National Park. Room was extremely spacious (largest hotel closet I have ever seen) and came with a balcony. Hotel was quiet, and the communal kitchen and dining space was well maintained and well equipped.
This gorgeous property is beautifully maintained old Hawaii. The home is well appointed for comfort. The Heritage room was very comfortable. Location is tucked away and quiet yet so convenient to Volcano National Park. Robert could not have been nicer and his breakfasts were delish.
This place is EXCEPTIONAL! Every little detail is considered and the place is so comfortable. Breakfast included, doesn’t do justice to what is there waiting for you. These hosts are incredible and the property is the best we have stayed on whilst in Hawaii
Location was absolutely perfect for traveling to the volcano. Easy and clear instructions from the host. The no contact check in was wonderful as we were super tired from the trip. Loved the garden oasis, parking was easy, and very close to the main road.
The location is very convenient for visiting the Volcano National park. It is minutes away by driving. Joan had every detail written in notes so we had no problem with anything. Cleanliness was good. Did not spot any bug in the room.
Awesome location, perfect for exploring volcanos national park, hilo and other eastern parts of the island. The house itself is surrounded by lush green trees and gives a sense of living in the middle of a rainforest.
The room was beautiful and the whole property sits inside the stunning Hawaiian rain forest. So close to the Hawai’i Volcanoes NP (5 min) that we could stop by the Kīlauea erupting right before going to sleep.
Loved the artsy house and beautiful yard, made it feel like a real home with Hawaiian decor. Beds were comfortable and location to the national park was optimal. Advance communications were very helpful.
Clean and spacious with amenities. Quiet street close to volcano National Park. Renters let us know what was available as far as food and shopping on the area. Gave a list of "must see" places
close to National volcano park
on site restaurant & dinner is delicious.
