Volcano Inn

The location is great. It is very near the volcano and there are restaurant options nearby. The place has so much potential. The homemade banana bread was yummy. The pictures are deceptive. The hot tub was filthy, and there is no way it's been cleaned recently. The room size is fine. The bathrooms are dated, but livable. The rooms need updated linens. The beds and pillows are terribly uncomfortable, and I made the mistake of looking at the mattress which desperately need to be replaced. The humidifyer didn't work. The windows look out over rainforest which would be amazing if they were remotely clean and if they all opened and closed (which they do not). The rooms are loud with banging over head in one room from the upstairs neighbors and from the echo in the main house near the dining area. I didn't mind the noise as much since we were there to see the volcano at night and didn't want to drive back. No TV which is also not a big deal since that's not why were there.

Room was good, but we arrived to no water in bathroom, and no warning after a long day of driving. The surroundings are like a jungle, beautiful. Perfect location for visiting the volcanoes. Breakfast of 2 kinds of papaya, yogurt and homemade banana bread was outstanding. Lelani? was the sweetest breakfast hostess. Credited her Grandmom for the banana bread.😁

Everything we needed for a one night stay while visiting the Park. Yummy breakfast and super helpful staff. Sure, the pillows could of been nicer, the windows a little cleaner, (from other reviews) but for 125/ night, it was perfect. Nice quiet location minutes away from hectic Park visitors center. Food options nearby limited when we were there- just happened to be closed days/hours.

This hotel is conveniently located near the Volcano National Park and our room overlooking the jungle was comfortable, clean and quiet. Unfortunately, the grounds and maintenance was poor. There is not housekeeping service, but that’s normally okay for us. The hot tub was shabby, not very clean and not very hot. The breakfast was light and healthy and the staff the second morning were friendly. There is virtually no service with self check-in.

Wonderful place. The love and family feel shine through. Excellent breakfast. I recommend the rooms that feel as if you are in the jungle. I have been there twice now and will not hesitate to come back

We stayed here for 1 night, there is a lot of noise from the road, so keep that in mind if you're a light sleeper. The curtains didn't totally cover the windows either so light was getting in. Breakfast tasted very good, it was banana bread and papaya boats, but with other groups also eating breakfast we had to be careful on how much to eat because there was only a small amount out at a time. If you have a big group or like to eat a big breakfast I'd probably bring along some snacks for the morning. The other thing is be prepared to walk around the common area without shoes, I understand that's a cultural thing for Hawaiians, but that was something a little odd for us. Overall it was a fine place to stay, just be prepared for it to be a little different.

Amazing secluded location!! Set right in a luscious rainforest, I really felt close to nature, our room was a big one, 1 king, queen, and a pull out sofa, with private bathroom and large windows that created an entirely immersive night/morning! Comfortable beds and clean room. Not far from Volcanos National park either. My only complaint/suggestion is to have some sort of protein at the breakfast bar. Good breakfast but very limited and small portions, I think I got like one slice of banana on my papaya boats

I was at brunch today (3000 miles away Big Island) eating a delicious warm slice of banana bread with a generous smear of white butter, when I was transported back about 18 months to the time I stayed at the beautiful Volcano Inn (May'23). Conveniently located close to the Volcano National Park, the Volcano Inn has tastefully decorated rooms, a nice hot-tub, a pristine rainforest garden and an excellent breakfast spread. Special mention to the curated book collection in each room and the stellar breakfast - juicy papaya boat and warm banana bread. I enjoyed this little slice of heaven, just as much as I enjoyed hiking around the mighty Kilauea. I shall return.
