"The owners (different than the host) are the best! They made sure that we have everything we need to make our stay comfortable and stress-free as our house in Ka’u was damaged by Hurricane Lala. The Nene Room was beautiful, clean and peaceful with its large picture window overlooking the serene forest. We also stayed in Gecko room that has one bedroom, living room, and kitchen. The Gecko room is comfortable and perfect for family and longer stays. The surrounding is quiet and close to stores,...

Top Mauna Ulu Hotel Reviews

Kilauea Lodge and Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"Very nicely decorated. Could use more hooks for hanging"

8 minutes to Nat'l Park! Enjoy the sound of rain & birds in a peaceful retreat.

10/10 Excellent

"This unit is very special - it was, by far, the best of the three VRBOs we stayed in, during our two weeks in the islands. The location in the middle of the rain forest, is beautiful. The drive to Hawaii Volcanos NP takes less than 10 minutes. There are other houses along the road to the main highway, but the separation is such that there is no noise from other units. The living space is on the second floor, while the lower level provides covered parking. The unit has a very large combined living room/dining area/kitchen. All areas are well supplied. There is no central heating, but there are several local space heaters, including a propane "fireplace." The queen bed also has mattress heaters. The owners have labelled all appliances with thorough instructions, and included a multi-page notebook with information and instructions. There were 2 minor drawbacks: the road from the unit to the highway is in pretty poor shape, so one must drive 8-15 MPH for most of its length; the padlock on the gate to the property is difficult to open and close, especially if one has a little arthritis in one's hands. We would recommend that a better option be provided."

Lokahi Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect stay!!"

10/10 Excellent

"Property was well maintained and the instructions to reqch ghe property were extremely helpful."

Romantic Tree Cottage in the Rainforest

10/10 Excellent

"This was an adorable cottage with little details that made our stay perfect. Do not hesitate to book this gem."

Chalet Kilauea

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is more like a rental house than typical hotel. There are only eight or so rooms and each one has nice views with privacy. There is no staff on site but you can contact them is needed. I would stay here again. One thing to consider, you are 30 minutes from most services. If you don’t mind that and want something quiet this is a great option."

The Pacifica Inn

10/10 Excellent

Volcano Rainforest Retreat

8/10 Good

"Lovely spot to enjoy Volcano National Park. The small town is quite limited, so maybe not ideal for a long stay. The Bamboo Guest house was well suited for our family of four. Our two children slept on the “floor futons” and were very comfortable. The house is not air conditioned, which means the windows must be open when it is warm out, allowing some bugs and moisture in. But, the rain forest vibes are pretty nice. Really enjoyed the Japanese soaking tub. WiFi is very spotty. Host was lovely and the breakfast fruit and breads were nice additions."

Romantic, Private Cottage Nestled Away in Volcano

10/10 Excellent

"This cottage is so cute and cozy! Clean and convenient. Lovingly maintained by the owner who lives on the property. Super quiet spot hidden in the rainforest neighborhood. Loved the rain on the roof at night. It is located only minutes away from the national park so we could go into town for dinner and then go back into the NP at night to see the sunset and the lava flow glow. The town of Volcano is super small with limited groceries available, but there are some really good restaurants right there which were delicious!! We highly recommend this cottage!"
