    Very comfortable and well-appointed cottage in a beautiful setting, felt like being in the jungle. Excellent location for the National Park and also easy to access the main road for Hilo and around the island. Wonderful views of the stars at night from the garden and even a glimpse of the mountain top from the gate.

    Nothing - but FYI the kitchen sink plug is broken and the tap leaks. Very minor things that weren’t problems for us.

    This cosy cottage ensured we had a wonderful stay in Volcano Village. It provided everything we needed and was a warm and welcoming base. We loved our time here and can’t recommend it enough!

    Shower has an old loose handle that makes it tricky to find where hot and cold water are. The water heater is very small so hot water is very limited. It would be helpful to install a bit larger heater so a family can take showers without waiting for water heat up. Volcano is cold and wet often, and many visitors spend time hiking and exploring the national park as we did, and really wanted a hot shower upon return.

    Very clean and tidy. Warm and cozy inside. Property manager was quick to respond to our inquiries and helpful.

    Suggest making a book providing basics on the stay - check out time and policies; maintenance such as should we keep emptying the dehumidifier tank?; and local tips/recommendations. Also, this booking site does not note that the washer/dryer is only available if staying 3+ nights so that was a big surprise to us upon arrival - recommend adding this info if you can so families with kids can plan ahead. Confirmation with access info on the morning of arrival would provide peace of mind for long distance travelers.

    Great location for visiting Hilo and Volcano National Park. Rainforest setting felt very private. Nice books about the island for planning are available. Cards and board games very appreciated.

    Smell like mold, bad water flow, bad place to find things to eat

    There're several things I'm very disappointed. First, I reached out to the property a few days before arrival asking when we'll get the door code, and if it's easy to find food to eat near by. We didn't get any response. I emailed again a couple of days before arrival and still didn't get replied. I called the day before arrival to make sure we'll receive the door code when we're there. Finally the property manager answered the call and told me the code will be sent on our arrival day. I made sure she'll send early in the morning since we'll lose signal later in the day close to Volcano NP. Second, when we arrived the property, the room smells like mode. I opened all the windows to let the air flow a bit. The WORSE thing of this property is the water!!! The water flow is so not stable. It became very tiny flow quite often and not warm enough quite often. It's a disaster when we had showers especially with babies. There're also dust everywhere in this property. Lots of messy stuff in the closet. Can't believe it's rent like that. Third, the last surprise is, the day after we left, I received an email from the property asking for extra $30 cleaning fee without any reason. We tried our best to make the stuff back to place and washed the dishes by hand as much as possible before we left. I don't know what do they expect. I declined the request to pay extra cleaning fee. Gosh what an experience. BTW, the stores in this small town closes too early. If you're traveling and want to have a good breakfast and dinner, please make sure to drive extra miles to Hilo. We'll never stay in this area anymore.

    The location is very close to Volcano NP.
