    This is a wonderful cottage tucked into the lush greenery, full of trees and birds. It is quiet (except for the frogs at night) and peaceful, in addition to being clean and thoughtfully provided with everything necessary for a stay. It is a great launching point for Volcanos National Park or a trip to Hilo. We highly recommend!

The kitchen is stocked with coffee and condiments and there is a H2O osmosis system that provides drinking water to fill up bottles. Loved my time there, would definitely recommend and return!

    Exactly as described, perfect jumping off point for discovering the big island. Cool and wet at the cabin every day during Christmas week meant we could come back from tropical excursions to Hilo or Kona and still feel cozy holiday vibes while we cooked next to the wood burning stove in the evenings. Messages sent to the host were quickly responded to, which was appreciated. Shower head was phenomenal. Can’t say enough good things about it, thank you so much for letting us stay over Christmas week, we had such a great time.

Linens, bedding were fresh and she clearly took time setting up little “extras.”Felt truly at home that is clearly loved by the owners.

The space is rustic and comfortable and the setting is lush and private. Walkable to anything in the little town that you need (shops, dining). Host was communicative and responsive. Would definitely recommend if you are going to Volcano.

    Absolutely excellent, we'd stay there again in a heart beat. Just a lovely property. We so enjoyed the fact that there were 2 complete bedrooms. I travel with my son so we want separate beds. So many places will say sleeps 2 but only have 1 bed. So, this was lovely. Nice location. Full on kitchen, & living room. The wood burning stove was nice to be able to warm up. I could walk to the stores, I can't say enough good things about it.

This sweet little cottage was in the perfect location, a walk away from restaurants and a small convenience store. Extremely clean and well appointed with all you will need. If you do like to watch TV/stream/etc bring a FireStick/Roku/Chromecast to make small TV play from device (the internet is actually pretty good considering :) Can’t wait to make a return visit!

    This cabin is very private but very close to the park. The kitchen is fully equipped with the exception of a dishwasher. There is a nice wood burning stove that quickly heats up the cabin on cool nights. Plenty of wood is available on site for the fire. The bathroom has a claw foot tub with a fabulous rain shower. It has 2 bedrooms with comfortable beds and plenty of storage for clothes. The internet was ok for the 2 of us. We plan on returning to this cabin in the future.

    We LOVED this cottage in volcano. It was at the dead end of a road in the rain forest. Absolutely loved it. So cute, clean and nice inside. My favorite part was the deck. Could of sat there all day listening to the birds. Ate at a great Thai place nearby and the location was minutes from the National Park. Couldn't have been a better location. We loved it! Wished we could have stayed longer.

    Overall excellent experience.Only problems I had were related to parking & hot water.It is very difficult to park if you want to park under the carport. Driveway is steep and I had trouble backing up or backing down. I ended up just parking at the bottom of the drive.We could not get hot water in the bathroom sink no matter how long we let it run. We figured out that if we ran hot water in kitchen or bathroom tub, we would finally get hot water to the sink tap.

    The property was in a stunning location, next to nature and was as described on the listing. The host left tea and coffee, which was much appreciated! The overall communication from the host couldve been quicker - as we had an issue when we checked in and couldn’t get hold of them until the next morning. But apart from that, I would definitely recommend staying in this beautiful apartment!

    Loved our stay at Volcano Cottage and would like to book it again soon. We stayed for 5 days but it still wasn't enough time. This cottage has the best shower I've ever experienced and the heated towel racks were an unexpected bonus. Our first night, we stoked the wood stove, made tea and watched 'Best in Show'. I loved the huge DVD collection; it was nice to watch a movie with the whole family again and the stove and heaters kept the whole place warm and cozy. Thank you for renting your cottage to us.

    This is a lovely property set in a beautiful area. I loved hearing all the sounds of nature in the morning! Also, the shower is seriously one of the best I have ever experienced! Some areas that need improvement: the pots and pans are Teflon and are completely scratched up making them in fact unsafe to use. The curtains are horrible – they don’t really even cover the full windows and it’s a struggle to feel like you can get privacy. They need to be replaced. The rugs don’t have any matting underneath them so you feel like you could slip and fall at any time. Washing gloves were not provided, which made it hard to clean the dishes. other than that – a great property with a very responsive manager.

    This cabin has the benefit of being both off the beaten path and still close to simple amenities like a store where you can pick up goods and a sandwich, and some eateries and art stores. It's just minutes from Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. The whole place was clean, well-apportioned, handsome, and comfortable. Sitting on the lanai surrounded for hours by birdsong, with a hot beverage (it was November) and a journal made my whole trip. Thanks for the great place to stay!

    We had a delightful 9-night stay in Kaluhe Cottage. We love HVNP & have visited Volcano village 11 years, renting 5 different VRBO’s. Kaluhe stands up to or exceeds the features of all the others, yet it’s the least costly. A great value! Located at the end of a private road just off Volcano’s main drag, it’s totally quiet; we never heard any traffic. Plus it’s less than 10 minutes to HVNP’s entrance & Visitors’ Center. We’d have a leisurely breakfast, be at the park’s parking lots before anyone else, & hike the most popular trails almost alone! Kaluhe is also less than 5 minutes to the Cooper Center; we could bop over to the Sunday Farmers’ Market when it opened at 6:30am, get some great fruit, bread, ready-made meals, & grab bargains in the used bookstore before everything sold out. The cottage’s kitchen is fully equipped. We love to prepare our own meals using locally-sourced food, so we drive to Hilo our 1st morning & buy enough to last the week. We always hit the Hilo Farmers’ Market, Papa’a Palaoa Bakery, The Locavore Store, Big Island Candies, & the KTA Super Store (just past the airport) which has a great seafood counter. While the cottage isn’t large, it’s layout makes it seem so. A small 2nd bedroom was great for us to store our luggage & layout all our hiking clothes & gear. The 2 lanai provide sheltered spots to step outside to enjoy a cup of coffee, meal, or book while surrounded by the yard’s lush tropical vegetation. We look forward to returning next year!

    We loved our stay at this little cottage nestled behind a gated driveway! It was close to a few dining options in Volcano and about 5 minutes from the Visitors Center in the national park. The home provided all of the comforts we needed for our stay. The beds were clean and comfortable, the porches were perfect for drinking coffee and reading a good book, and the rainshower head in the tub made for very relaxing showers at the end of our long days of exploring the big island. The property managers were very responsive to questions we had leading up to our trip. We would definitely stay here again!
