Good option with caveats
Nice, simple room that is somewhat spartan but quite beautiful with views of the giant ferns. It was a little chilly but manageable with the in-room space heater. The hosts were really good with communication and very polite and helpful. I would caution anyone arriving at night because there is no visible signage or address number. Read the arrival instructions carefully as it was really difficult to find after dark until we started counting driveways. The other caveat relates to parking, The parking area is rather small and definitely tight. it may not be feasible if there are other cars present — and especially if these are larger cars or SUV’s. Our rental agency gave us a minivan (unexpectedly) and we really only barely managed to park.after 15 minutes of careful maneuvering. Otherwise, this was a good value and a good option for visiting Volcano Nat Park, Make sure you eat dinner early because the local restaurants and cafes close by 8pm and won’t seat you after 7:30. We had to drive to Hilo to get dinner after staying until dark to view the lava flow at Volcano.

Everything about this place is exactly what we expected. Wife and daughter loved it. Definitely a Big Island / Volcano experience. Small gripe, wished the parking was bigger, LOL.

Unique and relaxing
Property was clean and as quaint as advertised. The bed was comfortable and the heater worked well. The dehumifier offered, while a nice gesture, was not adequate for the space. It would have been nice to have a table or suitcase rack to keep luggage off the floor. The only "real" problme was coffee maker did not work. We would definately stay here again.

Nice place, close to the park!
We enjoyed our stay here. I would have liked to have a chest drawers or suitcase stand to put my bag on, along with clothes. (There were hooks.) Not a big deal, just a nicety that I missed. Other than that, it was super great to be able to hike in the park and come back for lunch or nap and return for sunset or other areas.
The best stay that i have ever been..the View is unbelievable..Thank you

Beautiful room in gorgeous setting
The room was large, clean and situated in a very quiet neighborhood -- except for the local wildlife! Ear plugs were provided if desired.
The bed was very comfortable, the windows looked upon a lush tropical forest, and the water was quickly hot on tap. The electric wall heater was sufficient to keep the room at a nice temperature on the cool nights.
The room was equipped with a fast water heating appliance, coffee maker (with coffee cartridges), teas, water bottles, microwave and refrigerator. A two piece place setting was also provided.
One thing we did encounter was the high humidity after returning from a lengthy hike in the drizzle in the park never did go away even with the use of the provided mini dehumidifier.
We would happily stay here again!
