We loved our stay at this rainforest stay. It has everything needed to be comfortable, and some extra supplies for outdoor adventures such as binoculars, flashlight, picnic blanket and beach towels. The hot tub is perfect after a long day of hikes, and having a full kitchen is convenient for cooking our own meals. Host was very considerate and communicative, we felt very taken care of! Highly recommend.

Beautiful house near Volcanoes NP

Beautiful house with everything you'll need for a stay close to Volcanoes. This was perfect for our visit. Easy to jump into the park and back out to eat lunch. We especially loved the hot tub for relaxing at the end of the day.

What a delightful find! This accommodation was the perfect retreat in this busy tourist destination. Our host was prompt and clear in communication prior to and throughout our stay. The hot tub was fantastic - clean and inviting, the perfect way to finish the day walking through the national park. We loved the aesthetic of the place and the thoughtfulness of details, such as the coffee maker (with Kona coffee) and the easy to use gas heater for the cold Volcano mornings. Rainforest Retreat was value for money, and I would highly recommend staying here.

We had a lovely stay for 2 nights here. It was clean, organised and comfortable. Stacey was a great communicator and every accommodating. It's a 10 minute drive to the Volcano national park and the stand out of this place was the spa at night after a big hike and watching the stars. Amazing! Highly recommend

Amazing!

What a wonderful place to stay for our trip to visit Volcano National Park and the island of Hawaii! The location was perfect and they thought of so many extra amenities that made the house so nice! The hot tub was perfect to recuperate from our long days of exploring. The bed was so comfy too! They had all the things you’d need to cook meals if you didn’t want to eat out. Although we had a wonderful meal at Lanikai Brewing Company just down the street. Great place to stay!! I’d give it more stars if I could!!

Perfect location for Volcano NP

We had an absolutely perfect stay at this sweet hale outside Volcanoes National Park. It was perfectly located right outside the park so you can be an early bird getting there first before the crowds. The place was beautiful situated in the rainforest area outside the park so you got the experience all the beauty and nature the area has to provide. The hot tub was a wonderful touch especially after a long rainy day adventuring. The hosts were super quick to respond for anything we needed during our stay as well. We would happily stay here again in the future!

We loved our stay at this property in Volcano! We found this spot, just outside the National Park, to be super convenient for visiting the park and surrounding sites, and really enjoyed checking out the small town of Volcano. Our host, Stacey, couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. She checked in just enough to make sure we had everything we needed and provided helpful suggestions about what to do in the area. The house was super cute, clean, and well equipped. Hot tubbing in the backyard was a slice of heaven at the end of the day. Highly recommend staying here for a great experience and easy access to Volcanoes National Park, Hilo, and beyond!

Cozy tropical cottage

We had an amazing week-plus here and loved our time! Volcano is away from the big crowds, so it was perfect to have a full kitchen for breakfasts and/or dinners when it was raining too hard for us to want to leave the cozy nest. The property is also lovely, with a hot tub and spots to sit and watch the rain or enjoy the sunshine, when we had it. Our host was so kind and responsive when we had major travel woes, and checked in with us during our time, but also gave us our space.

Amazingly peaceful

We got to the house on a Saturday evening, check in was easy and we had no issues. We went to the Cooper Center Farmers market on Sunday morning and loaded up in fruits and vegetables and actually ended up making most of our meals at the house instead of eating out because it was just so peaceful to be there. Very clean too!

Stacey was a fantastic host! She was incredibly thoughtful and proactive, sending clear check-in instructions well in advance and even checking in with us after our arrival to make sure we had everything we needed.The property itself was extremely comfortable and exceeded our expectations. A huge bonus was that the hot tub was already preheated to the perfect temperature when we arrived, allowing us to enjoy it immediately. It was the ideal way to relax!The location was also perfect for us. It's incredibly close to Volcano National Park (less than 3 miles away!), making it super easy to explore. We also loved having a small general store and a great brewery nearby, which was very convenient.We had a wonderful and comfortable stay thanks to Stacey's hospitality and the great location.

Cozy Seclusion

We highly recommend this quiet, cozy stay near Volcano National Park. It was a short drive (<10 min) to the park entrance allowing us to get there early and beat the crowds. Stacey communicated before and during our stay to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed which we appreciated. Her place was very clean and very quiet at night except for the sounds of the rainforest birds singing which we absolutely loved! We will definitely book this place again when we go back to Volcano.

Fantastic!

My family chose this property because of the proximity to Volcanoes National Park and we were beyond pleased our stay! The house is adorable and well decorated, very comfortable and plenty of space for the 4 of us (2 adults and 2 tweens). It feels very secluded and the bird songs are relaxing. The host stayed in contact and responded quickly. The hot tub was wonderful! We had everything we needed and thoughtful items we appreciated.
