Location was great. The property smelled very musty and everything felt damp. A dehumidifier would have helped in this climate. It was very pricey for this type accommodation. A lot of reviews I read before making my reservation talked about baskets of fruit in their room, this was not the case for our stay.

This is a really good property. The inside is clean with very nice decoration. Outside like botanical garden. And also it is only a few miles to volcano park. Will stay here again if visit here in the future.

Lovely retreat!
We thoroughly enjoyed staying here! The instructions to find the remote location & access were clear & user-friendly. The room was spacious & included extras that made our stay comfortable! Extras included fresh fruit, breakfast bars, coffee, tea & hot chocolate! The jacuzzi tub takes awhile to fill, but included lovely bath products. We wish we had booked an extra night to enjoy the property, but we plan to book here again in the future! Mahalo!

The property was close to the park entrance, easy to come and go. Low maintenance no checkin and checkout. Key in the door when we arrived. Small heater for the room and it rained the two nights we were there. So we needed the heater. Basic fruit, granola bars and yogurt for breakfast. We didn’t spend much time in the room as we were out in the park. A little difficult to find but great little spot

I am super impressed with how easy check in was, received an email with specific details. The room was very nice, clean and comfortable. It was extra nice that our breakfast was in the room, especially because we wake up earlier than most guest. If we ever return to Volcano, we will absolutely be staying here again. Lots of restaurant options very close, the national park is extremely close too. Overall the perfect stay for my family.

The town of Volcano is very quaint. It is located in a fern forest, so it is very unique. The stay was ok. Had a bed, TV and shower.

Lovely place to stay when visiting Volcanoes National Park. We stayed in room 3 which was comfortable and had a microwave and fridge. Nice touch with having breakfast left of yoghurts, fruits, cereal bars etc. Would recommend.

There was no water pressure to take a shower or use sink for more than 1 minute. With 5 of us it was very difficult to even use toilet at times. In the morning we tried to return the key and close up. When we entered the door marked office my husband was yelled at by someone to get back. We understand if that is a private area but no instructions were left on where to put key and the large sign saying office made it seem like the place to go.

The hotel accommodation states family style with multiple beds but you will get charged for each extra person beyond two people twenty dollars per person per night. So I was charged extra for my kids. It’s misleading. The door did not lock. And the room had a musty smell. The beds felt damp.
