Hau'oli Place - Happy little tiki cottage in Volcano

The little tiki cottage was fantastic! Can’t say enough about the location (super close to Volcanoes Nat’l Park entrance), the backyard, and the character of the house. A perfect quiet place to serve as basecamp for our big island adventure. Worked great for our family of 4 but would be really good for a couple or solo traveler as well. Hosts are super communicative and welcoming. Thank you so much! Would definitely stay here again.

Hau’oli Place was a real gem in a calm and quiet environment, which was just what I wanted in a place to stay. The cottage was so clean, much cleaner than the Marriott we stayed in the night before, and so well outfitted - everything was there that you could think of. The bed was very comfortable, the jacuzzi tub was a treat and the lanai was a place I could hang out all day enjoying the rainforest landscaping. I only wish we had more time there! If you are coming to Hawaii to see the volcano area, you can’t do better than this place!

We had a wonderful stay at Hau'oli Place in Volcano. It was a well equipped, peaceful, beautiful property and an easy drive to the national park. It worked well for our family of four. We would stay here again without hesitation.

Super fun Tiki theme/ Hawaiian decor. Very well appointed. Lots of helpful info in the cottage and sent by host, esp in regards to the volcano. We were there for episode 41, and we're thankful for the portico to protect our car from Tephra. Great for a couple.

The kitchen was fully stocked with all you need to cook which is really helpful for us and especially because Volcano doesn't have a ton of options for restaurants. Everything felt clean and you could tell the place was really cared for.

Fire place was warm enough, very nice and cozy stay. Property is very beautiful, we loved our stay. Property owner went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable

Kitchen had everything we needed from wine screw to over implements to cook dinner. Outdoor grille as well. Clean place. Great tub, amazing decor and space, as well. Host was easy to talk to and this place was easy to find with great WiFi and an amazing fireplace and TV set up. Wish we could have stayed longer.

The kitchen was fully equipped. The bathroom and shower were great. The personal touches made us feel right at home. Our stay was short but sweet! Thanks so much!

Perfect place to stay for easy access visiting Volcanoes National Park. This cabin was very well equipped with everything we needed. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the rain forest setting and spent mornings sitting on the porch enjoying our coffee. We hope to come back to visit again.

Cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay while visiting the VNP. The communication from the host was excellent.

Cute, well-appointed, just enough distance from HVNP to avoid the crowds at Volcano House in the evening. Great communicators, comfortable beds, beautiful outdoor space, and their friendly cat next door was a bonus for our kids who missed their pet.

Absolutely loved this house. Perfect for our anniversary staycation in Volcano. From the moment we stepped into the house we felt comfortable. It has a full kitchen, huge comfortable lanai looking out at the beautiful landscaped yard and nice living room area with the fire place. The bed was comfortable with the heated mattress, the bathroom was clean an stocked with towels. It was a quick drive to the Volcano National Park and an easy drive to Hilo. We would definitely stay here again.

A great unit super convenient to Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. Less than 10 min. from the park so when we heard the volcano was erupting we could head over quickly. Also, not a bad drive to Hilo area attractions. The place was set up great and had everything we needed. Loved having meals out on the lanai, listening to the frogs and other rainforest critters. The owners were super responsive when we had one small issue. The cats welcoming us home after our daily adventures kept us from getting to homesick for our pets. We will highly recommend to friends and also colleagues that visit the area regularly working on wildlife conservation projects.

This bungalow is perfection. It is super clean and very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and the fire place in the living room came in handy on chilly nights. The house has everything you need but the stand out feature is the outdoor space. The porch was a great place to relax after a day of hiking, and is accessible from the living room and the bedroom. The yard has a fire pit (which we did not use) but used the seating to lounge in the sun. The location is just 5 minutes from Volcanos National Park. Check-in and Check-out was a breeze. We appreciated having our own covered car park at the foot of the front door which made loading/unloading the car super easy. This place will not disappoint. It is absolutely excellent and I highly recommend!!

We had a wonderful time in Volcano Village. The house is beautiful and equipped with everything one might need. It’s hard to beat the location within minutes of the National Park. We enjoyed breakfast on the covered porch that allowed us to enjoy the gorgeous setting even on rainy mornings.

Was a nice enough place, if a bit cluttered, and a bit small for a family, but we booked last minute. Comms were good and check-in was easy enough. A good option for small groups looking to stay near the NP.

The house is lovely, though a bit tricky to find. We arrived after dark - missed flight and delays - and the streets in Volcano have no lights. Driving in the pitch black can make finding the property tricky despite having being sent directions by the host.Lucretia & Mark are amazing. I fell sick with the flu wile staying and they gave me info on an urgent care place (East Hawaii Health Clinic at Keaau - 30 minute drive from Volcano) that helped put me on the mend over the weekend. I would recommend staying here if visiting Volcano. The house is gorgeous and besides my flu, the family had an enjoyable (and rest imposed) stay. I would stay again.Tips - Avoid Ohelo Cafe - they let a couple of Caucasian males who arrived after us at 6:35PM dine-in while declining our family of 4 who had arrived at 6:30PM. We tried calling ahead around 4:30PM to reserve/book and no calls were answered. We got some take-away as nothing else was open and the alternative was to go hungry.Eagle's Lighthouse Cafe makes great sandwiches and cinnamon rolls! We bought our lunches here, and dinners from Thai Thai Bistro & Bar.

We spent 2 nights and enjoying our stay. The house has all the amenities we needed. Can't wait until we can come again.

Hau’oli place is incredible! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and didn’t want to leave. The property is obviously well cared for. The decorations are fun and add to the experience. (Our daughter, age 8, loved the tiki doing the shakas.) The location is so close to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park that it is convenient to come and go as you please and enjoy the whole experience.
