”Pleasant stay. we spent the day at the Volcano Natl Park which is only 7 minutes away. had dinner in town, checked in about 5pm. when you drive onto the property you feel like you are in the middle of the rain forrest. really appreciated the tasty banana bread, snacks, and fruit that was left out. our room had a hot tub, which we didnt use. the matress was comfy. very quiet surrondings.”

”Really cute little place a stone's throw from the entrance, and just outside of Volcano Village (some great places to eat, a few cool shops). Easy, old-school villa style entry, Quiet. Loved the room (though the carpet needs a little work...). Loved the many small touches that made the room. Easy check-out. Would definitely use again. Only negative observation is that I would try to mask the structures behind the villa a tad more.”

”We loved our stay! Everyone is so nice, and helpful! Loved the trail on the property. Will stay again”

”Couldn’t stay because of the storm. ”

”The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and the hostess was helpful and gracious. ”

”Overall it was a good spot for one night. Super clean with nice amenities. However, to check in you have to arrive within a certain time and pick up and return the key at the True Value a short drive away. No potable water, but they provided a jug of bottled water. We arrived at the end of check-in time frame and it was rainy and foggy, so finding the checkin spot was challenging. TV is in a little sitting room. We didn’t shower because when you first turn on the water in the basin it was...

”It is okay if staying with a short time.”

”We adored the little rainbow falls rainforest cabin. We have been travelling for about two weeks and it was time for a short retreat before continuing our adventure in the Hawaiian islands. Luckily for us, the volcano erupted, and we got to sit on the front porch listening to the rumble in the distance after having seen the start of the eruption that morning at the rim restaurant before they evacuated everyone.”

”Stayed at Cabin Kai 4 (Dec 26–30, 2025). Affordable and located in a beautiful, peaceful area with free parking, water, and Wi-Fi (weak). Major concern: No window coverings for the floor-to-ceiling bathtub window or windows above the bed and coffee bar, resulting in serious privacy issues while bathing and sleeping. This was very uncomfortable. Remote location (45 minutes from Hilo); a car is required. No cellphone reception. No nearby restaurants or shops. Towels were not very clean, and...

”It is so different than any other plaze I know or been to! It's not quite hotel, hostel or motel, it's more like own room with common facilities like kitchen and toilets. Really old building but in great condition! I like it very much and I do recommend to stay here! It was pretty easy to find with gps/map!”

”Rooms were clean and comfortable. Kitchen area could have been cleaner especially the dirty refrigerator. Excellent location to National park. Few restaurants in the area but very good food. For the price, I would visit again. ”

”Great people, amazing area, I really enjoyed everything there. Definitely coming back. ”

”limited electricity so there’s not much light at night and no hot water in room.”

”Less than 10 minutes from the park and felt like we were in the middle of the rain forest! Loved it!”

”The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and tidy and the atmosphere was so cool. It felt like we were staying in a treehouse in the jungle! The provided breakfast was good along with the other snacks in the common area. Very cool experience!”

”The National Park was very close. We did not need to use a work space. ”

”Clean room with everything you need. Couple fans, wall mounted fireplace heater, dehumidifier which kept the room dry enough though bit louder. Bigger bath with separate dressing area. Very close to Volcano NP and the communication with the host was top notch. Not much food options near Volcano NP but good food in Hilo. Nice little garden area with koi pond. Overall we loved it and we will definitely come back here. PS - Parking like others mentioned can be bit tighter but it was ok. We came...

”Spotless well appointed room. Friendly, helpful hosts. Beautiful setting.”

”This lovely secluded rain forest cabin is wonderfully private, very close to the park, and the owners are extremely responsive (by text). They provide coffee and bottled water (although the filtered rain water is fine too). Note that it’s a pretty big place so takes a bit to warm up on cold wet days, but worth it!”
