The place was easy to find with the directions provided by the property. We loved being so close to the park and getting to explore the volcano areas during our short visit. Oatmeal, fresh fruit and coffee provided made a great breakfast and the fresh baked banana bread was an added bonus! I would highly recommend the Aloha Crater Lodge to anyone wanting to be close to the volcanos national park.

This was a very unique room to stay in (rm 6). The property is a little hard to find at night (off the beaten path) which also gives its secluded charm. check in and out was easy. the room had a big shower and a view of a pound. they had fresh fruits and home made banana pineapple bread along with Kau coffee. it was very close to the volcano entrance and right across the main road are several places to eat (I recommend going to Volcano's Lava Rock Cafe for good local grinds).

It is 3 miles from Volcanoes National park entrance. Unit was very nice and quiet, the fruit and oatmeal and coffee that was provided meant we didn't need to go out for breakfast! This unit, Orchid room, had a fancy fish pond in one section of the room, and a nice walkin tiled shower.
