Our stay was great! Rm 3 that we stayed in was nice - had a queen bed and a twin bed. Small set up for kitchen (microwave and refrigerator, Plates, cups, etc - no sink but dishes we done by the owner every day) Had a small bathroom; but was sufficient for our needs. Less than a couple miles to Volcano National Park which was very convenient. Beautiful grounds. I would stay here again.

It was a beautiful property, a tropical paradise with all the beautiful flowers. We stayed in the Honeymoon Suite which was just lovely and cozy. It was really nice having tea, fruits, and ramen noodles waiting for us on a cold rainy day.

Beautiful property that has a private, lush vibe. Our host, Shannon, was very helpful and friendly, without being intrusive. We stayed in the Honeymoon Suite (room #6). It was spacious and beautiful! The room has a comfortable, charming canopy bed. There is a large garden atrium in the room which contains a pond, fish, and lush tropical plants.Room has a small fridge. Great value for the price. We were given a welcome breakfast basket with fresh fruits and treats. My only complaint is that, while there was a coffee maker, there was only instant coffee (yuck!) offered.

We loved our stay at Aloha Crater. It's a unique family-built place in the rainforest just outside Volcanoes Nat'l Park. Easy to find, only 5 minutes from the park visitor center. If you're looking for a sterile, cookie-cutter Hyatt-type place this isn't it. The hosts are responsive, the rooms are spacious, the gardens around are gorgeous. We loved the chorus of coqui frogs at night.

Location was great. The property smelled very musty and everything felt damp. A dehumidifier would have helped in this climate. It was very pricey for this type accommodation. A lot of reviews I read before making my reservation talked about baskets of fruit in their room, this was not the case for our stay.

This is a really good property. The inside is clean with very nice decoration. Outside like botanical garden. And also it is only a few miles to volcano park. Will stay here again if visit here in the future.

Lovely retreat!
We thoroughly enjoyed staying here! The instructions to find the remote location & access were clear & user-friendly. The room was spacious & included extras that made our stay comfortable! Extras included fresh fruit, breakfast bars, coffee, tea & hot chocolate! The jacuzzi tub takes awhile to fill, but included lovely bath products. We wish we had booked an extra night to enjoy the property, but we plan to book here again in the future! Mahalo!

The property was close to the park entrance, easy to come and go. Low maintenance no checkin and checkout. Key in the door when we arrived. Small heater for the room and it rained the two nights we were there. So we needed the heater. Basic fruit, granola bars and yogurt for breakfast. We didn’t spend much time in the room as we were out in the park. A little difficult to find but great little spot

I am super impressed with how easy check in was, received an email with specific details. The room was very nice, clean and comfortable. It was extra nice that our breakfast was in the room, especially because we wake up earlier than most guest. If we ever return to Volcano, we will absolutely be staying here again. Lots of restaurant options very close, the national park is extremely close too. Overall the perfect stay for my family.
