We had a great stay at Hale Mauna Loa, communication was easy, the house was amazing, very spacious and clean, being surrounded by nature and it sounds, it was a very relaxing stay. We loved it.

Hosts were great, owners below were great. Place was interesting, unique and spacious. It had a ton of extra kitchen items that proved very useful for me.

Good condition, good location(close to the volcano park), good value

Stayed in August 2023

Beds were very firm and not the most comfortable.

Great location minutes away from Volcanoes National Park. Cool rainforest type setting with frog/nature sounds.

Stayed in July 2023

I am wondering some sound from downstairs was a bit noisy.

Kitchen items were really enough to stay.

It was very spacious and inviting and had all the amenities that you could wish for. Also it was only minutes away from Hawaii Volcanoes National Park which was very convenient.

House was clean but needs some repairs. The refrigerator runs and is very noisy.

Perfect location for stay near Volcano. Large indoor and outdoor spaces for Family.

Washing machine and dryer were not available at first for our use and each appliance was padlocked. We were shocked and felt untrusted and felt cheated at first. We have learnt that with accommodation advertisements you have to not only look at what is included/ provided, but you have to be more alert and.mindful about what isn't stated. We would expect a statement to the effect that washing machine & dryer isn't available with the booking.com description. We feel that booking.com is complicit in the deception of not allowing use of facilities within a booking where the factory has them. The lady addressing our concerns for the owner was polite, explained things when asked, communicated well, and assisted in problem solving. Our 2nd day was 1/2 wasted finding and using a laundry mat, after which a $20 per day surcharge was negotiated to use the washing machine / dryer. We only needed it on a single day, but we didn't waste time in a laundry mat.

Greenery / rain forest like surrounds from every window and front balcony. Gas heater use was a necessity and provided good comfort throughout our 6 day stay ,- and surprisingly it was needed Gr8 location to visit Volcano National Park - which we did multiple days and multiple times, morning and night.

Our only complaint is that we were unable to use the dryer. Walked in the rain at the volcano and it would have been nice to dry our clothes when we returned.

Loved being surrounded in tropical rainforest with use of firepit on the patio. We were able to sit outside with protected roof even in the rain. Thank you for allowing us to stay one night.

The dehumidifiers make for constant noise.. harder to hear the wonderful bird sounds in the trees around us..but with our a more sophisticated central system hard to avoid given local moisture at the location ..plastic wine glasses not my first choice.. but ok real tumbler glasses..

Very convenient location to volcano n.p. Easy access with door code.. nice to have fire place.. good heating in the main room.. February can be wet and cold at volcano ..good functioning kitchen ..

No washer and dryer use. Had to go to a laundromat.

The house is absolutely wonderful. Our regret is that we didn't stay longer to really take advantage.

The property is a little dated, but that is to be expected considering it's remote out of the way location. Would've also liked to have had an instruction manual on nearby facilities (restaurant, shopping) and directions on using appliances. The washer and dryer had a lock on it and not sure if we were supposed to have access with a key. If not, I would've like to have had access to the washer and dryer; but the dryer had a lock on it.

Location was exceptional for visiting Volcanoes National Park. We explored and hiked the park during the day, and then went to our property to rest before returning in evening to see the lava. It's possible to do it staying in Hilo; but's it a little bit of a drive (45 minutes). The back porch was nice to lounge around in.

No dishwasher - but not a big deal to us since it was one night. this is an upstairs of a duplex. I wasn't too clear on that but maybe the owner lives below? didn't see anyone. It is 3 bedrooms upstairs.

Great location so close to the Volcano national park. You would not know that another house was nearby. So secluded in the rainforest. We loved the outside deck with the fire pit table. Very cool place

The unit is big.

The outdoor grill was rusted and unusable.

Location and roominess. The veranda was lovely to sit out on in the evening. Everything was clean.
