Neighborhood Overview

The guest house is tucked away from the road behind the main house giving you serious privacy. It's quiet because there is almost no traffic. The neighborhood is literally a rain-forest, dominated by native ohia trees and giant tree ferns. Our skies are so dark that on clear nights the Milky Way is stunning. Four minutes from Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island, this is an ideal base for touring the park and is centrally located between Ka'u and Puna. The national park is currently closed except for the Kahuku Unit in Ka'u. In the village there are five restaurants, two general stores, and a post office - check out my Guidebook for the island at the bottom of this listing. A farmer's market is held in the village every Sunday where you can get food, local produce, coffee, honey, and crafts. Local food includes the Tuk Tuk Thai food truck, the Lava Rock Cafe, Thai Thai Bistro and Bar, Ohelo Cafe, Eagle's Lighthouse Cafe, Ono cafe, and the upper scale Kilauea Lodge and Vol

Notes

TRAVEL ADVICE: Due to Airbnb's new policy of allowing cancellations within two days of booking, I'm afraid I cannot answer extensive planning questions until after 48 hours. MAP CENTER: The map center has maps and brochures, and a map of local restaurants including my own recommendations. TV: There is a DVD player (no cable or broadcast TV) and toys and games for the kids. COFFEE and TEA: There is complementary coffee and tea by the coffee maker in the kitchen. GROCERIES: If you will be staying a while and doing any cooking, you should get groceries in Kona or Hilo before arriving. There are local general stores, but their selection is limited and the prices are higher. GRILL: If you would like to use the grill please ask. WATER and RAIN: The house is on a catchment water system, which is fine for bathing and washing dishes. Spring water is provided for drinking and cooking. There is cedar paneling throughout, so the house smells like cedar. Please understand that we get 9 FEET (2.7

Transit

The only public transportation is an infrequent bus to Hilo. There is no Uber on the island. There are some taxi services in Hilo. Kona Airport (KOA) is 2.5 hours away. Hilo Airport (ITO) is 45 minutes away.

Access

    Everything about this house was amazing. It was a great size, very clean and in a perfect location being just down the street from Volcanoes National Park. David was a fantastic host and extremely accommodating. I would recommend this location to anyone who visits Volcano.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Tista

    Cozy studio tucked among greenery, and only 5-10 min from volcano national park. The best thing however, is that David is a trove of knowledge, and he has made a nice handy little booklet describing all the activities one can do in the area. It was supremely helpful. We had a great stay.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Elisa

    Nice, roomy living room. Very clean!! Appliances new and towels are soft. Loved walking into the blue ray DVD showing of the Volcano. Host gave excellent instructions to find house and easy checkout instructions. The maps of the Volcano national park were also very helpful. The location was excellent. We made it to the ranger talk in the morning because we were so close. Highly recommend this house.

    The host canceled this reservation 89 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

    Needed to find some lodging for out-of-town family that were visiting. When I explained to David that I needed to book a place for 2-3 people, mainly to sleep, he was very accommodating. He was great at communicating with directions and instructions, which made it easy for my family members to drive up the road from me and get to the place, even though it was late at night. They said it was clean, spacious yet cozy and comfortable with a homey feeling and the beds were soft and relaxing. They were grateful so mahalo, David!

  • Katja

    David was full of good information. He took a lot of time to send me tips and recommendations before I even got there, which I really appreciated. The space was just as described and pictured, really easy to find and convenient to the National Park. Loved being able to make coffee in the morning. Thank you David!

  • Tracey

    Nice space. Didn't actually meet David (he was working), but got to see the video he provided of the latest eruption of the volcano. Would have loved to spend more nights in the location... 1 night is not enough. 2-3 nights would be perfect to enjoy the Hilo side of the island.

    Fantastic location to enjoy the volcano park and the house is great!

    Fräscht, rymligt och trevligt boende nära parken. Kändes väldigt skönt att bo nära och slippa köra hela vägen i mörkret till kusten efter kvällsshowen vid vulkanen. David gav utmärkta tips anpassade för våra förutsättningar (två små barn) och tiden som vi hade tillgänglig. Han var för övrigt lätt att ha att göra med. Rekommenderar verkligen detta boende för ett par nätter vid vulkanen.

    This was a perfect place for us (me, the wife, adult step son and two boys under seven). Located about four minutes from Volcano National Park. Two queen beds in a very comfortable bedroom that smells wonderful. Has a sleeper sofa in the living room/kitchen and great Wi-Fi. We booked online about 35 minutes before we showed up and startled Dave when we arrived but he had the place ready to go in no time. Texted me as soon as the room was ready. Honestly, I expected a total shack when we booked, but this place is amazing. Stay here, you'll love it.

    What an amazing accommodation! David was thorough with his instructions, and very thoughtful in all of the detail included in the house. We were so happy to have his expertise in how to plan our lava viewings. We had everything we needed and more! Thank you David!

    Very convient to Volcanoes National Park. Lovely setting and well landscaped yard. David got back to us promptly. We arrived late and he made it convenient for us to access the property. For the price, a really great value. Wonderful location to launch out into the area.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Danielle

    David was amazing. He gave us tons of information about volcanoes and current conditions out there. His place is impeccable. I would recommend it to anyone looking to stay close to the volcanoes. Super easy to go in and out. Just a great host and great place. One of the best Airbnb rentals yet! Would recommend to anybody looking for a short term rental.

  • Till

    We had a one night stay at David's guest house to visit the Volcano national Park and the Lava Flow. Overall, I can highly recommend his place to everyone else. David is a great host, we received all relevant information in advance and also frequent updates in the currently Lava Flow, very helpful. The guest room is spacious, very clean, and very well equipped, e.g. trail maps, lava dvd, park information, drinking water, coffee, small flash light, etc was available for us to use. We slept very well as it got super quiet during the night. Thank you David, hope we her a second chance to visit Volcana and to stay a bit longer next time.

  • Hea Yeon

    Very cozy and comfortable. I just loved the house. Dave also gave us so much information about the volcano area and it was really useful to us. We will definitely choose Dave's place again if we have a chance to come back. Highly recommended!

  • Kasim

    I'm really glad we stayed here instead of one of the more expensive lodges or bed and breakfast places in Volcano. Dave's place is spacious and had everything we needed. Dave also gave great, up-to-date info about the park.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Alexandre

    David à été très performant afin de nous informer sur les conditions climatiques exceptionnelles. L'appartement est situé très proche de l'entrée du park (15 minutes) ce qui rend l'accée très pratique lorsque l'on veut passer plusieurs jours dans le park. Nous conseillons ce logement pour un couple ou même une famille car il y a beaucoup d'espaces. Thanks David !!

  • Erika And Cyndi

    Everything about this stay was great! David was totally available and helped us answer any and all questions we had. The space was clean and had everything we needed, plus maps! He kept us in the loop about storm progression and park closures. He even prepared a hurricane kit for us in the guest house with water and flashlights, etc. The location was ideal for going to the national park and only an hour to the lava viewing. Would totally stay here again.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • John

    David, Provided several emails on reaching current lava flows and related Volcano National Park info. When the two hurricanes threatened David provided links to weather info and park information. He had flashlights, candles, and ice available. The place was suitable for 3-5 quests and perfect for me. Located on a quiet residential street with easy access to national park. One of my favorite things was David's guidebook to local attractions or all kinds--it was very useful. I recommend David's place and I will stay again should my travels include the Big Island.

    This was a great location for us, just outside Volcano National Park. It met our needs and more. My only regret is not booking an extra night!

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Zied

    We only spent one night in David's place but everything went great. We found the place clean and spacious for three people. Tea and drinkable water were provided in addition to all the good instructions that were given on what to visit and where to if you want to visit the Volcano national park.

    It was very nice place for staying for people who want to look around Volcano Park. David, the host, was very nice and he gave us good information. The house was very huge and independent so you are not going to be interrupted.

    We had a delightful time at this location. The apartment is large and comfortable, set in a quiet location. We really appreciated the little welcome touches, such as coffee, tea, and nice shampoo. Also, David provides a terrific amount of personalized information to make your volcano experience as complete as possible. He also responds quickly. Thank you for a great stay.

    David's guest house was perfect to relax after a day at the National Volcano Park. I would return here for a second stay without hesitation. Thank you David for all the valuable information made available to your guests to plan the day.

  • Stephan

    Wow, wow, wow - this stay was awesome. This Condo is unique, we like that style. Everything was clean, comfortable beds and everything that you need is available. We couldn't talk to David, but this condo is a real basis camp for the National Park and Lava Viewing (we did the hike to the ocean entry of the lava twice, because it's so beautiful!). David's maps, tour guide and little advices are very helpful. We highly recommend this Condo!

    Jun 27, 2019

    David's place was exactly as described. It was easy to access and in a great location for volcano. The space was very clean and had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!

    Nice place, after a full day in the national park it was great to come back to a well-furnished place with all the necessary amenities.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • 离火山口很近,房东人好,房子大设施齐全,最喜欢的是房东提供了很多关于火山公园的地图和火山介绍,英语日语中文的宣传册。房东耐心解答问题并推荐了好吃的餐馆,简直太方便了! Away from the volcano is very near, the landlord is so nice, large house with full set of facilities, my favorite love is the landlord providing lots maps and brochures about the volcano national park in English, Japanese and Chinese. The landlord patiently answered the question and recommended a delicious restaurant to us, it is simply too convenient!

    The listing as described was very low key; our host undersold the accommodation. The location was very close to the park and to Volcano Village and while it was right off the highway, it was very quiet. Everything was better as described (and very clean) and we had all the privacy that we wanted in our getaway while having almost instant access to David through texts. I would highly recommend staying here.

    Our stay was perfect for our trip! We needed a place for 4 people close to volcano national park to prepare for a backcountry hike. David's place had everything we needed and we could not beat the fantastic value! Perfectly located near the park in lush volcano, would be a great basecamp for all kinds of Big Island adventures. Would definitely stay here again!

    Dave is an excellent host! He's very knowledgeable of the whole area. Just read the guidebook that he posted. He spent the time to explain to us the best options to utilize our time to the fullest. We really enjoyed our stay!

  • Tevy

    It was a perfect location to the park and the Volcano village. We wished we would of stay an extra night but this is our 1st time to the island so we had to split our time to different locations of the island. David was very helpful w/the park info and dining suggestions which we end up having a wonderful dinner at the Rim w/a great view of the lava. We also had a great breakfast at the Kilauea Lodge. We love the scenic route that David suggested going back to Kona Kailua. Thanks again David!

  • Katrina

    The location was awesome. My family and I were visiting volcanoes park and this house is less than 5 minutes away. Getting to the house was simple and easy. David really made things convenient with maps of the park displayed on the walls. He even printed out helpful sheets that told you how to navigate the park if you want to get up close to the volcano or see the lava. These sheets also told of nearby eateries which saved us time in the evening and morning. We all enjoyed our stay very much.

    David was an excellent host who gave a lot of great information via email and fast communication. The place was very clean and spacious with VERY comfortable beds! David also provided a lot of wonderful maps and information about the area in the room which made things like finding somewhere to eat a breeze! Also, location is very close to the main entrance of the park. Would absolutely stay there again!

    David's place is spot on for location, space, and privacy. I was arriving early from a flight and he was gracious enough to allow me to drop my bags off early and basically check in before the 3pm time. Check out his suggestions and tips for the area and volcanoes national park - he really has gone out of his way to provide guests key information on hiking, sights, restaurants, etc. Two thumbs up!! I highly recommend staying at David's guest house and hope to have another opportunity in the future. Oh, and he has great coffee available that was a real treat! Mahalo

    Great place if you are visiting Volcanoes National Park! David gave us excellent tips to plan our hikes and is very knowledgeable about the local area/ park.

    This property is located just a couple minutes drive to the National Park. It is a very large space with 1 bedroom (2 Queens), one bathroom, and full kitchen w/very large dining/living area. Everything was clean and well stocked! I really appreciated the zip lock bags I found in the kitchen! This is a perfect property for your home-base while exploring Volcano National Park.

    We only stayed one night here, just a quick trip from Kona over to the park, but everything was great! Super affordable, everything we needed, easy entry, David was really responsive, it couldn't have worked out better!

    Davids place is a perfectly located little cottage very close to the Volcano National Park. Anything you need is available: towels, coffee, body wash, shampoo... the rooms are clean and there is nothing you can complain about. We only spent one night at their place and it was perfect. David and his wife are super nice and communication was easy during the entire time. I can totally recommend this place without restriction of any kind.

    Location, location, location! Just a couple of miles from the park; we went in/out of the park 3 times one day! The unit was spacious, clean, and quiet. David had Park maps and hike guides in the unit - made it very convenient to plan how to explore the park before arriving there.

    The place was absolutely lovely, and our host Dave was great! We came to the Big Island because my dad's a geology nerd and he HAD to see the volcanoes. Dave's place is the perfect base for volcano viewing! The wifi was a little slow at times, but we made do with the Netflix and with disconnecting and actually enjoying nature! The place is like a little "cabin in the woods", connected to the host's place. Dave was very accommodating, providing anything we asked for! If you're planning on seeing the volcanoes (or even just exploring the east side of Big Island), this is a wonderful place to stay.

    David's place is a perfect base for visiting the volcanoes park, spacious, well equipped, and conveniently located. And David himself is a wonderful host, responsive and enthusiastic in giving suggestions on visiting the volcanoes, can't thank him enough for his hospitality.

    A great base for exploring Volcano NP with the added bonus of plenty of maps and brochures available in the unit to help plan our days. The unit had everything we needed and the tin of Christmas baking was a lovely surprise. Thank you.

    David's place is enormous. More than adequate for the 4 of us. It was spotless and fully equipped with kitchen and all amenities. Brochures and information for hiking and dining in the area was provided. David was always available to assist. Great location, close to The Volcano National Park yet private. A definite stay here again if we visit the area. Thanks David.

    The location of David's studio is great for volcanoes lovers and very quiet. Beds are very comfortable, linen of good taste. We did not use the kitchen. David provides a bunch of leaflets about the volcano area very useful. I wish we would have met David personally as he lives next door. This is why we like AirBnB. He only communicates by texting... Maybe i am old school, i like to meet people.

    As advertised, this is a fantastic place to stay if you plan on visiting Volcanoes National Park (it's only a 5 minute drive from the entrance) and/or the current lava flow. David has great info and is an incredibly helpful host. 10/10!

  • Berta

    Great place, with a great owner!! David was very helpful from the moment we booked. As soon as we booked he sent us helpful tips about the best way to enjoy the volcano. He also provided us with the latest update on the lava flow and the best ways to see it. I sent him several messages asking questions and he responded within a few hours. The place was easy to find, very clean and lots of space. There were 3 of us, but the place could sleep 6 easily. Very close to the national park. Overall everything was great, would come back there.

    David's self-contained guest house is super clean, completely equipped (and i do mean completely), and is the perfect base for exploring the Volcano. Also there is every kind of information about the area. Quiet, spacious, convenient, clean and comfortable. Thanks David!

  • Katie

    An absolute wonderful place to stay. It was easy to get to, and a very pleasant place to stay. The remarkable part about this place is the absolutely wonderful information provided about the area and the volcano tourist area. Full menus on area restaurants and recommendations on family friendly locations was given and the first hand, up-to-date info on the volcano tourist areas was provided ahead of our stay. We would stay here again. A+

    David has a fantastic guest house. Clean, cozy, and has all the amenities one might need when visiting Volcanoes National Park. While we only met David briefly, he was very cordial and seems like a seasoned pro when it comes to hosting. I highly recommend checking his place out if you're in the area.

    Great location in Volcano, just minutes from restaurants and park entrance. Dave provides an abundance of maps and information on local restaurants and sights to see. My husband also enjoyed Netflix while we stayed there. I recommend staying here if you are visiting the volcano.

  • Adam

    David was awesome! We only stayed one night, but his guest house was very comfortable to stay in and I'd absolutely stay there multiple nights if I was in the area. David also provides maps and extensive information about the Volcano National Park as well as food and other things to do in the area. It was extremely helpful to have all of that information right there when we walked in!

    화산 국립공원 근처에 위치하여 관광하기에 너무 좋았으며.. 깨끗한 집이 너무 만족스러웠습니다. 전자레인지, 오븐 등 full kitchens 이 갖추어있어 요리해 먹기에도 충분한 곳이였습니다. 볼케이노 근처 숙소를 찾으신다면 강력 추천합니다.

  • Alison

    An excellent base camp for Volcano National Park! David provided maps, hike suggestions and a binder with his recommendations across the island. He was prompt to respond to any questions or requests (he even came over to discuss where to find local food), the beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we could want (providing local coffee is a nice touch). Very large and comfortable for two, we felt spoiled by the space. Would stay again next time we are on the big island!

    We stayed here 2 nights to spend time in Volcanoes Nat'l Park. The house is very conveniently located near the park and the museum with night-time viewing of the Kilauea crater with lava bubbling up. The house is spacious with a well-equipped kitchen, lots of extra blankets, and comfortable living room. A real bonus is all the park information provided to help plan the time in the park.

  • Lucy

    First of all we would like to thank David for excellent communication prior and also during our stay. He provided us with all information we needed (lava flow,restaurants,..etc) The guesthouse is located in the rainforest near Volcano National Park, with proximity of restaurants, shops. The quality of sleep was one of the best we experienced on Big Island. We hope to be back there again soon

  • Donald

    David has a very comfortable and clean private home which we thoroughly enjoyed. He provided an abundance of information about not only Volcano National Park but also the whole island. Very smooth check in and check out. He also provided us with some very valuable personal tips about viewing the lava flow into the ocean.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Colleen

    Davids, Volcano home was perfect for our family stay right outside the National Park enterance. Our host was knowledgeable, a great communicator and provided a clean and comfortable space! We would love to stay again!

  • Shigeharu

    It was a very comfortable house. Our kids loved the toys and Netflix videos. We also enjoyed watching the dvd about volcano activity. David was very kind and gave us a lot of advices on the tour around that area. I would surely recommend the house especially for volcano watch.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Rob

    Great place for families. Full kitchen. Good location yet secluded. Close to restaurants and to Volcanoes National Park. Provides detailed information about the area and was very helpful when we couldn't figure out the DVD. Highly recommend. Price was fair.

    Easy to find, flexible, clean and there were trail maps and guides in the house and menus for local restaurants. Quiet neighborhood close to Volcanoes National Park. We also found the beds comfortable.

  • Sara

    Our family of 4 stayed one night and used David's place as a base camp during our 2 day visit to Volcanoes National Park. David's home is ideally situated in a very quiet neighborhood a few minutes drive to local restaurants and the Park entrance. The apartment is separate from David's house and felt very private. The furnishings were attractive and comfortable. Perhaps best of all was all the information David provided about how to prepare for and what to see in the Park, which is a huge area with many options which we could not have optimized without David's input. He also provided menus of all the restaurants in town and a dynamite documentary on the local volcanoes. We had a thoroughly good time day and night!

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Anne

    Location is two miles from entrance to National Park (Volcanoes). David provided helpful maps of the park and a list of nearby breakfast, lunch and dinner choices with copies of the menus in a binder, as well as several brochures. Good communication and very helpful tips when you book your stay. Would recommend. (Because of the very humid climate, David's place may smell musty, which he clearly states in his description).

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Danny And Shannon

    I very much enjoyed my stay at David's place. Perfect location for exploring Volcanoes National Park. Unit was spacious, clean and comfortable. David provided a lot of information about the National Park and accessing active lava flows. I would definitely stay here again!

    We really enjoyed our two nights at David's place. It was very clean, organized, and everything we needed was provided. The best part was all of the information provided about the national park, lava viewing, nearby restaurants, and local attractions. A lot of time and effort was obviously spent compiling this info. We would definitely recommend and stay again.

    Though we never met David personally, his communication was clear, descriptions of the area, restaurants, sites to visit were all helpful. He has kept all the materials relevant to our visit to the area clearly marked and organized well. He found the eye glass left out and be prompt to let us know and we picked up on time. Thank you David. We will recommend your place to everyone.

  • Michal

    Even though we only stayed one night, we enjoyed staing at David's house very much! The accomodation was very clean and comfortable. What we appretiated the most was the great amount of up-to-date information materials available in the house about what to do in the area, where to go for dinner or breakfast, etc. We also met David in person for a while and he suggested to go and see the lava lake after sunset. It was only like a 10-minute drive from the house and an amazing experience!

    Great location for exploring Volcanoes Nat'l Park; park gate is 5 mins drive away. Completely separate home behind the host's home in residential neighbourhood of Volcano townsite. Very helpful information provided on where to eat nearby, get groceries, and things to explore in the national park and beyond. We drove ~45 mins from here to also see Rainbow Falls near Hilo; worth it just for the banyan tree forest alone! Appreciated the few toys for the kids to play with. Place can sleep up to 6 ppl, if each person shares a bed.

    Jun 27, 2019

    It's quite a long drive from the Kona airport. But it's great that it's so close to the national park. David is very helpful and left us a lot of information! Thanks!! The room does have some smell due to humidity and ceder.

    It was very pleasant stay at david's place. It took only 10 mins from volcano park, so it was perfect place to visit volcano park. We could see many stars at yard. David gave a lot of information of lavas and surrounding restaurants.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Bianca

    David was very nice and had lots of useful information on the walls of the guest house (maps, guides, etc.). The place was good for the value, and didn't smell great but I think that was the volcano's fault. Very close to the national park. Thanks David :)

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Frieda

    This place is right outside of the Volcano National park, a good location if you want to stay a night close to the park to view the lava at night. The house is next to the owner's main house, feels safe. The place is neat, with cooking utensils and all the basic seasoning like salt, pepper, sugar, cooking oil, toaster ovens, full kitchen if you care to cook. Also has distilled water for drinking, really nice of the owner to provide that. There is detailed infos and pamphlets for the area (maps, restaurants). Night lights everywhere. It's a little musky from the cedar of the house, but not bad. David was very responsive to all my questions.

    I booked this accommodation for my sister and brother in law as they are not good with the internet. I have to say communication with David was excellent from the time I was choosing this accommodation right through to their checkout. Here is my brother in law's review of this great property My lovely wife and I found the accommodation clean, neat and tidy. It had a homely, welcoming atmosphere. The location is quite stunning and devoid of the unwanted noise associated with the usual tourist type hotels. The manager 'David' was more than happy to enlighten us with his vast knowledge of how best to enjoy the sights (at the same time making us aware of potential dangers regarding the volcano and it's surroundings). Our privacy was never encroached upon and the overall experience was awesome.

    David is a perfect host. He has a wealth of information about Volcano National Park and the surrounding area. He emailed a lot of info prior to our arrival and he has an entire collection of printouts in several languages, neatly arranged upon your arrival. His location is ideal for anyone going to visit the park. It is easy to find, and within minutes of the park entrance. The accommodations are very private, there are 2 beds in the bedroom, with additional pillows and blankets. There is a pull out sofa for additional sleepers. The table seats 8. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, tableware and utensils. There is a coffee maker, coffee, creamer and sugar or sweetener available. WIFI is available and there was a desk, both were appreciated by one of our group who needed to complete a work related project. There was a very detailed manual that made checking out a breeze. One of the kids left a t-shirt and David contacted us immediately. We were still close enough to return for it, making for a happy child. I highly recommend David's place.

    We stayed at the guest house for one night in connection with a visit to Volcanoes National Park. It was easy to find, parking was a few steps from the door, and the place was perfect for our needs. It is a very short drive from the house to the Jaggar Museum observation area, so the night-time drive to see the Kilauea Caldera was short and simple. The house itself was clean, comfortable, and cozy. It's easy to see why it has so many 5 star reviews. Highly recommended.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Glenn

    Davids place was quiet and close to the Volcano. Food supplies are limited in the area, recommend buying in Hilo or a large town if eating at the house. Restaurant's in the area are good but there are long lines at some. The only complaint I had was not having warmer clothing. The day we were at the Volcano the temperature was in the low sixties, I expected the eighties

    This place is super close to Volcano National Park. If you're planning on spending at least two days exploring the park I would highly recommend it. The sofa bed would be ok for children but maybe not for adults. I enjoyed the large flatscreen tv with Netflix as an added bonus. Overall a great place to rest your head and an awesome base camp for exploring the park. David is a wonderful host.

    Very well coordinated, stocked with all the information you need. Very dark at night so will recommned checking in first thing when arriving (will also help you coordinate the food and rest of the trip), rather than arriving last thing at night like we did. If you go from the Volcano, the directions to the home is on left side. Great place and full Netflix! Very easy and comfortable for my family. David also responded right away to my texts and questions.

    We underestimated the length of time it would take at the lava flow so we didn't get in to his place until really late. He communicated with us even at that late hour. Witch I felt really bad about. We went directly to bed and woke up and the left. The apartment was a nice large space and he even sells snacks which we didn't know at the time but it is good to know because all of the restaurants and stores are closed by 9. David has tons of info to share about the area in the apartment. I wish we would of had a little more time there!

    David's place is five minutes from the Volcano Park entrance. The check in process was excellent- didn't have to use up valuable time meeting for the key exchange. He had information packets all over the place and even provides food for a discounted price! My best airbnb experience to date.

    David's guest house is fantastic. My family and I had a great time there. It's only about 5 min drive to the entrance of the Volcano National Park. If you want to spend 1~2 days exploring the park and the surrounding area, this is the right place for you.

    Anyone planning on visiting Volcanoes National Park should stay here! It's truly a gem. We couldn't have asked for a better location since it's right in the heart of Volcano, and it was spacious and clean with everything we needed. David has filled the place with all the information you could possibly need for your trip to Big Island, including National Park maps, recommendations, and even a binder full of local restaurants with details to help you decide where to eat. David was quick to respond and eager to help us with any questions. Fabulous!

    David was a great host and was very responsive, ran right over to sort out the TV/DVD player for us. The location adjact to the park made very easy to run back over at sunset to see the glow from the crater, we wouldn't have done that if we'd had to drive a distance. The rental was comfortable and very clean. We enjoyed our stay.

    My wife and I enjoyed staying at David's place. His place is perfectly located for getting into and out of Volcano National Park with ease. There is lots of helpful information about the park such as maps and hikes, including degree of difficulty and what you will see, The place is very clean and well organized. The kitchen has everything you may need to cook anything you want. We were very impressed and would stay there again if we ever get the chance to come back.

    David's place was a cozy cottage very close to Volcanoes National Park. If you plan to visit the Park, especially over multiple days, this is a perfect place to stay. David asks only for a value price, and you can find anything you expect to find in a bnb home. Great experience!

    We had a great time in David's Ohana house in Volcano. He was very easy to communicate with, gave great suggestions for things to do, left a binder full of ideas in the house for us and overall made our time in Volcano stress free! Highly recommended. Just be aware that the house has a catchment system for water and so you can't drink the tap water. This is well marked in the house and isn't a problem as David supplies you with as much spring water as you want for drinking. Just bring plenty of refillable water bottles for all the great hiking in the area!

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Ray

    You can tell a lot of thought was put into making this a comfortable stay for the guests. Signs around the property, binder of menus for restaurants in the area, very clean (I mean very clean, not a spot or any mold noticed in the bathroom or kitchen areas where it would be expected), printouts of the trails for volcano park, beverages in the fridge. Very impressed and overall just a good and clean experience.

    David was a great host and paid lots of attention to detail. When we first arrived, there were signs reassuring us we were at the right place, and a sign indicating exactly where to park. The unit itself was very clean and tidy, and even had pamphlets and maps everywhere of the park. David himself came over to give some tips about visiting the park. The location was great, with the park less than 10 minutes away. All in all, this was an excellent value.

    Very close to volcano national park. Great directions and maps available. The two regular beds were very comfortable. The sofa bed was not very comfortable for my older children so I'd recommend this house to only be for four older children or adults. My 14 year old boy was having a hard time getting comfortable there. Easy check in and very quick responses. House was clean and well stocked. Volcano area definitely needs 3 days to explore, in my opinion.

    This place is THE place to stay if you're looking for a place close to Volcano National Park. My boyfriend and I took a quick weekend trip to the Big Island to explore Volcano. David's communication was too notch. As soon as I booked he sent an email full of tips! He checked in with me as our trip approached and had a very detailed list of instructions on how to find the place - it was super easy. We actually flew into Kona and when I texted David upon landing he even sent me tips of what to see along our drive over to Volcano. The house was easy to find and very accessible. It was super clean, and super spacious. The kitchen was fully stocked with kitchen equipment and David supplied plenty of other items such as cleaning items, towels, wash clothes, soap, shampoo, etc. One of my favorite parts was that David had maps and recommendations of everything in Volcano- from restaurant menus, activities, where to explore in the area, etc. By far the most prepared airbnb I've ever stayed in. I really wish we had more than 1.5 days there. Definitely recommend staying here if your agenda is focused on the Volcano National Park.

    화산공원 방문을 위해 2박 했습니다. 공원까지 2마일가량으로 매우 가까웠고 필요한 것이 대부분 갖추어져 있었어요. 동네가 수풀이 우거져 꼭 곰이 나올것 같 은 분위기였습니다. 지역이 습해서 제습기 가동은 필수입니다. 지대가 높다 보니 쌀쌀해서 아침 저녁에 긴팔옷을 챙겨야 합니다. 화산을 편리하게 즐기고 싶지만 공원 내 호텔이 부담스럽다면 이 마을이 딱입니다. 공원지도와 지역식당, 빅아일랜드 안내책자 등 여행자를 위한 세심한 배려가 돋보였습니다.

    Great spot, check lava flows days before and plan hikes as Kalapana is good but access road is close to Hilo. The 1 mile hike on the closed crater loop road was very easy and nice, Pele's hair very visible all over the end of the road! No other hikers were there!

    David is a great host. The property was in a perfect location and condition for hiking to see active lava.

    The unit is located within a couple of miles of the volcano park, which was very convenient, especially for evening viewing of the crater from Jagger Museum. David also provided great information on hikes to do and best options for seeing lava flows. there was also a very comprehensive guide for places to eat in a binder on the coffee table as well as area maps. On the downside the beds were soft. we were two couples, and my wife and I drew the sofa bed, even adding a mattress from one of the beds we still tended to roll into one another during the night. Overall, however, based on location and the very helpful tips for things to do we thought this was a good option. directions for how to find the unit and access to lockbox for entry were very clear.

    David's place was very clean and most comfortable with 2 large beds, fully equipped kitchen, large dining table set, big sofa-bed, clean space, and very well organized with plenty of maps, books, DVD, and information about the national park. You will find so much information in the living room which is way more than you can get at the visitor center, seriously. Also, David suggested places and things to do in the Big Island. Truly, I wished I started the first day of my week long vacation in the island at David's place first. I will definitely return back in the future and take full advantage of all the nice things of staying at David's. After check out, I had trouble with my car and David helped to jump start, also brought breakfast which was so kind of him and totally appreciate that timely life saving help.

    Perfect ohana! This is my favorite place I've stayed on any of the Hawaiian islands (and I lived on the Big Island for a year). CLEAN: So very clean throughout. Bathroom looked new it was so sparkling. Kitchen, bedroom, living room, sheets, towels, pillows, everything was amazingly clean. HUGE SPACE: Plenty of room for 6 people to sleep. Huge kitchen with extra large dining room that seats 8! Plus a desk, couch and lots of places to hang out inside and out. AMAZINGLY THOUGHTFUL: The house was filled with maps, local restaurant menus, hiking info, even a DVD of the volcano. It was great! David even has maps and info in tons of languages. He also has thoughtful signs, so the address is easy to spot, and you know where to park, which was especially great when arriving in the dark. Also the kitchen was stocked with coffee, tea, butter, condiments, microwave, toaster, clean utensils, etc. There were also games and things for kids to do, and there was wifi and David even provided Netflix. So thoughtful! PRIVATE: We arrived very late, and the lockbox was easy to use. I loved that I didn't have to disturb anyone that late and night, and we could let ourselves in at our convenience. The ohana is in the back of the property with lots of trees all around. It's extremely quiet. Zero coquis. Just peaceful silence. Also, the curtains kept the ohana dark in the morning, which was perfect for sleeping in. GREAT COMMUNICATION: David was a joy to communicate with. Quick responses every time, very friendly and welcoming. We didn't meet face to face, but he was incredibly available via text and Airbnb messaging. Overall a great stay! I would love to bring my family back here, since it's a perfect home base to explore the Volcano National Park from. And so much more private and serene than a large hotel. Mahalo nui loa for everything, David!

    If you plan on visiting Volcano National Park this is the place to stay. Location is great, Dave provides tons of information and if your plan is to go for a few days the house is perfect for being on the go and having enough space for your gear. My friend and I had no real plan about the park other than we knew we wanted to go and a 5 minute chat with Dave really helped shape what type of experience we wanted and even things we didn't know about. Lots of great information!

    My mother and I stayed here while we checked out Volcanoes National Park. David's place was super clean and cozy (he even had holiday decorations up!), and we appreciated being so close to the park to head back in the evening (to try and see the glow from the lava at the lookout from the Jagger Museum- unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate for us). We also had dinner at the Thai Thai Bistro & Bar in Volcano that hit the spot, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Overall- great place to stay!

The house has everything that you possibly need. The communication with the host was instant. My family and I simply called it a perfect home away from home. I can't thank David enough for being so thoughtful with the house design and the amenities. The place has lots of the information about the park and it was a great help. Overall, the place is super nice and I would absolutely stay there again and again.

    Perfect location for volcano national park (i think!). Unfortunately, did not get to go into the park due to government shutdown.

Especially, all the volcano travel information and local restaurants information (with menu) were very useful. I recommend future visitors to check-in at earliest so they can begin their volcano adventure journey with all the information. I will stay again at his place for my next visit, and recommend this place to my friends who plan to visit the volcano in future.

    地點雖非市區,但離national park很近,如果要拜訪火山國家公園的朋友,這絕對是最佳的住宿選擇,David還貼心的分享local food,Thai food餐車上的餐點是大島上最美味的食物,我們念念不忘,非常感謝David推薦

    Wonderful space, wonderful location. Also wonderful signage. In our entire trip on the Big Island, David's place had the clearest signage anywhere. Lovely carved wood signs with yellow lettering placed perfectly so our car headlights would hit them. We knew exactly where to drive, where to find the unit, and where to park. Given that we arrived well after dark with four tired teenagers, I cannot overstate how much I appreciated the signage. The unit itself was also terrific. Two full beds in the bedroom, a queen sized sofa bed, and an air bed available by request. Bright and beautiful, with a DVD player and nice video library. Dave also had maps of Hawaii, guidebooks, suggested destinations, and local tips posted in the entryway. Sadly, our schedule was such that we arrived late and left early. We only had one night on the Hilo side of the island. If I ever return to the Big Island, I would love to stay at David's place for a week. It would be the perfect base camp for exploring Volcano National Park and the Hilo side in general.

    真的太喜欢David的房子了! 因为取得时候每天基本都在下雨阴天,客厅里是有点冷的,但是卧室却很贴心的方有电热扇,让我们可以在晚上暖和的入眠。 David真的是很贴心的人,厨房调料用具应有尽有,还有专门准备了饮用水。卫生间和厨房有贴有指示图,比那些别的房主只写一些文字提醒来的简单易懂。最重要想要提的是,David准备了各种关于火山公园的各种地图和指示图在房间。各种hiking看活火山的路线都画了出来。在我们到达房子的前一天,David还特意给我发了详细的信息,帮我实时更新了活火山的情况。总之是可以看出来David是个非常热爱生活和经营airbnb的。

    The Ohana was exactly as it was described. It was easy to locate and check-in was a breeze even late at night. It was even spacious enough for our family of 6. Its proximity to Volcano Park made it possible for our family to go back to the Museum Overlook even late at night for a view of the Caldera, as it was cloudy earlier in the day. The local tips provided by David was very helpful as well. I’d highly recommend staying at David’s place.

    Jun 27, 2019

    David's place was perfect for exploring the volcano! The proximity to the volcano allowed us to wake up early and see the lava from the Jaggar museum viewing spot. He provided many recommendations for volcano trails to explore as well as local food recommendations.

    David's guesthouse was in the perfect location for our excursion to see Kilauea and Volcanoes National Park. There was plenty of space for the 6 of us to relax after a day of hiking and watching the glow of the lava. He was a gracious host and a great communicator. We look forward to our next trip to Volcano.

    Excellent stay as others have noted just a few minutes from Volcanoes National Park. Really appreciated all the helpful information available on the park and area restaurants as well as the extras provided like coffee. It's also very easy to find it as there are signs indicating exactly where it is and where to park. I would definitely stay here again!

    We stayed for one night to visit Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. David's directions were spot-on! He provided great guides and maps for our hiking adventures at Volcano. The place was serene and well-furnished with a fully-equipped kitchen for a family of 5. If you're an avid bird-watcher, the property is surrounded by a forest of ʻŌhiʻa trees so bring your binoculars!

    Everything pictured is exactly as is. The signage getting to the house is very clear and direct. Communication with the host was very fluid. He is very responsive. Being able to check into our unit at anytime of day was very helpful to us as we were traveling around the island for a few days and needing to be very flexible with our schedule and the toddler that we had.We were able to arrive fairly late in the afternoon and make it to Volcano to rent bikes for the night bike adventure. We then made it in the morning to the top of the volcano and was able to see the park during the daylight as well. The price is spot on and the space that we had in the house was perfect. There was only three of us and we were able to spread out. Thank you for having us!

    Great place to stay with easy access to Volcanoes National Park. The whole area is damp and cool which has some minor impact to the room but all in all comfortable accommodations with useful info/resources for local activities and food options.

    Wonderful ohana! Spacious, very clean, super comfy beds, well-equipped kitchen. Short distance from Volcano town restaurants and stores, and the National Park. Wifi had weak signal in much of the space but not a big deal unless you absolutely need to stream video while in the BR.

    This is a very convenient spot to go to the volcano national park. 10 minutes to Jaggar Museum to watch the larva activity. The host was also very nice and experienced- he has a guide book for all the activities.

    Dave was great and the space was excellent. Lots on information about visiting the park decorated the space. Check in was easy, the kitchen was handy. He recommended (and I would too) stopping at a grocery store in Hilo to pick up a few things so you can cook and have food for time at the park. Would stay agin!

    David's place is the perfect spot to stay when visiting the National Park. Unfortunately the park was closed when I stayed (May 2018) due to volcanic activity but it was only a five minute drive from the place. David also has a ton of information about the parks with an update board telling you about current happenings in the park. If you're looking to visit the park, then this is definately the place to stay.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Karen

    We chose Dave’s place because he is clearly a local guru and he didn’t disappoint! He knows everything about the local area and that’s so valuable. Because if the current eruption we disappointingly couldn’t get into the National Park but he had plenty of other tips. It was a great place to stay. Good selection of board games that our 7yo loved too

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Terry

    Very easy check-in and great location to Volcanoes National Park. David was Extremely knowledgeable about the volcano and all the issues surrounding the recent eruptions which obviously were beyond his control. He was an excellent communicator and provided brochures, maps, and handouts with restaurant info. Very organized!

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Mackenzie

    Amazing, amazing, amazing! Unfortunately National Park is closed so we couldn’t go in and explore, but we were excited to be near the action and safe. Volcano is gorgeous and we will definitely be back. Dave is awesome! Thank you!

  • Stephanie

    David’s Ohana is in a great location. Just because the Volcanoes Park is closed does not mean you still can explore and see tons on the island. It’s in a great location. Very quiet, private, and calm. David was excellent with his communication and local tips/recommendations. We would absolutely book with David again if we are lucky enough to make it back to Volcano!

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Srinivas

    Great place to stay, you would especially like all the maps that’s put up in the house regarding the volcano national park and the big island. Beautiful location, very close to the visitor center. And great value for money. David pretty knows everything about Big Island and you can get really valuable suggestions regarding big island tourist spots.

    Jun 27, 2019

    Wonderfully thought out space and helpful host!! We had absolutely everything we could ever need and more. Dave sent us lots of great information about things to do and was very responsive to the one question we had. We loved going back every night!! Thanks!!

  • Raina

    All great. David has excellent knowledge of the Big Island, especially the Hilo area. We saw many amazing sights. It's 45 minutes away from Hilo so plan accordingly knowing Volcanoes National Park is closed. Still much to see, Green and Black beaches, Akaka and Rainbow falls, many great experiences. Right now, his price can't be beat.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Dan

    This is by far one of the best Airbnb that I stayed at . Close to Volcano National park. And only 30 min from Hilo. Don't believe all the hype about the Volcano and the Lava. There is still alot to do here on the big island and all of Hawaii. Hope that this place is available next time I come back. I may have shot myself in the foot by saying that. SEMPER FI.

    Have kids? This is your place. (Just left as the VOLCANO WAS ERUPTING, THIS PLACE IS SAFE! The volcano is ONLY affecting 5% of the island, you are fine)! We took our 7 and 3yo to Dave's place, and the place is beyond kid friendly. Board games, kid books, and kid art bin! My little found the plastic spider in the play bin and was ecstatic to scare older brother the whole time. David responded within 10 minutes each time I sent a message, and when he asked if 7yo had found Lava Rock souvenir, I replied no.. in 3 minutes I saw him OUTSIDE hunting rocks for him! We went outside and got a 45 min rock/lava seminar from him. He is a BIOLOGIST! My nerd kid was excited to find rocks and ask Dave "what is this"? His wife went and captured a lizard for the 3yo to see. The space: is perfect for 4-5 people. Toddler highchair in the kitchen! Soap, shampoo/cond in the bath, fridge was stocked with some necessities (plus a nice bonus), desk with outlets to charge and work on a computer, TV has no cable, but movies & DVD player there. ABUNDANT island info, maps everywhere, maps on the wall with notes, and books to read about the island on the desk! Do you like earthquakes? Over 100 a day right now, we felt everything OVER a 3.0, and apparently slept thru the 5.8. They are rolling, not jerky! My7yo LOVED to experience this! Dave found us an outlook to see the eruption on Fissure 8- at night it was gorgeous! WIFI available for my kids tablets. NOTE: Head to the grocery store BEFORE you head up! There is a Foodland on the way up Highway 11- food prices up in Volcano are EXPENSIVE! Stock up then head up the hill. This place is 2 miles to the CLOSED Volcano park, and 40 minutes down to Hilo. We drove more south to the amazing bakery and Black Sand Beach. Sadly we could not enjoy the hikes in the closed park, but can't wait to come back one day! We then left and went onto Kona for 7 days. Thanks DAVE!

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Vanessa

    This is by far one of the best places we have stayed! Only downside is the Volcanos national park is closed due to a current eruption, but there is SO much more to see! We were close enough to be able to drive a short distance to see the red sky lit up from the lava at night, yet far enough away to be VERY safe. Seeing the lava light up the night sky was breathtaking and a once in a lifetime experience. Also close to Hilo including the amazing farmers market, Akaka falls, and a great little free zoo, highly recommended! The house is SO clean. No bugs or dirt! Great info including maps and points of interest available for you. This place is warm and welcoming and has everything you need.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Shari

    We were disappointed that after we booked Volcanoes National Park closed because it's really awesome to go at night and see the dome glow. We ended up going staying anyway to visit some other local sites (Punalu'u Beach) and experience the frequent earthquakes (so very cool). It was an unforgettable experience. Where else can you go and spend the night on an active, erupting volcano??? There were NO gasses, NO ash, NO air quality issues. Thanks David for encouraging us to come. The local economy relies on tourism and we were happy to support both Pahoa and Volcano Village with our visits.

  • Heather

    We stayed a couple nights with our two kids and found this rental to be clean, beds comfortable, and overall very family friendly. Little details were appreciated like great board games and family movie selection, informative books on the big island, and information on places nearby to eat. And as other reviewers stated, David was quick to respond and very knowledgeable. Thank you for a comfortable stay!

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Howard

    Worth every penny! Come and enjoy the stay! You will experience earthquakes like a local! David has a nice place to share, great instruction, easy to communicate! The place is close to check out Lower Puna, winery and green sand beach.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Yvonne

    It was nice and quiet. It was a bit far from Hilo, but a good distance to be from places like the black sand beach, Punaluu, and Puna. I’m sure if the volcano park had been open this would be the best place to stay. There was still a lot to see though even with the park closed. I thought the coqui frogs would be an issue...they were not. Being stationed in the Midwest for 5 years coquis are nothing compared Cicaidas. We needed a pack and play and he had it all set up with a small mattress inside (which I am now buying for my pack and play at home). The only issue we had was connecting to the WiFi. It would work sometimes and then other times go out, but it wasn’t a big deal as we were on vacation and trying to stay off of electronics anyway. The place was clean and very kid friendly! I would highly recommend to anyone with children!

    David provides a lot of information about the area. The place has a lot of space and is quiet. For those looking for excitement we did feel a 5.3 earthquake and several smaller ones. Not much to see currently in Volcano but the Island and the area (Hilo) have a lot to offer, so definitely worth a visit.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Brian

    Clean, quiet, conveniently located very close to Volcano National Park which was the entire reason for our trip. Park was closed, so be sure to check before you go. We did the Lava Boat Tour out of Hilo, which is just 40 minutes away. The town of Volcano is quaint. There are a couple of locations for food, plus the Volcano winery. And if you are lucky like we were you'll get to feel the volcano being restless and work in an earthquake. Host was good about communicating with us.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Alex

    We had an amazing time at David's place! Despite the closure of Volcano National Park, there's still plenty to see and experience. Just an hour drive there's Kalapana where we were walking on lava fields and saw the red illuminated skies at night. (due to the ongoing lava flows) Black Sand Beach near Punalu'u was amazing, we saw lots of turtles lying in the sand. Also Green Sand Beach, which ist 90 minutes away is worth a visit. But the most impressive thing was living near an active Volcano, we could feel the Earthquakes but at the same time felt very secure. (The Volcano is being monitored, so no need to worry!) The house was very clean, quiet and private. The Kitchen was fully equipped, everything was sparkling clean. David is very knowledgeable about the region and Volcano NP and was happy to share his knowhow with us. We would definitively return.

    What a great find!! The host (David) is very pleasant & welcoming. He has added information boards, books, maps, etc. to make your visit special.

    This was a great place located just a few short minutes from Volcano National Park. The neighborhood is quiet and located in the fern forest. The place was sparkling clean , beds we're so comfy, and the original and the decor gave a perfect ambiance for hikers to relax after a long day at the park. Our host was polite and responsive. He even left us really great recommendations on what to do in the area, including maps and restaurant guides. There was also a great kitchen with lots of quality cookware, so we were able to make a nice dinner and play some board games. This will certainly be our go-to spot when we come back to the area next year!

    David’s place is awesome! I have a family of 6, three adult children, a 7 year-old grandson, my wife and I was very comfortable in the space. I had absolutely no physical contact with David but that’s exactly what we like. As locals to the island we really don’t need a big fuss, just tell us how to get in and we are good. The living space was clean and stocked with the fresh towels, linens, and kitchenware except the rice pot. We really enjoyed our time there and feel it was worth the money.

    The ohana was exactly as described, well-stocked with everything we needed and very comfortable to boot. We (my sister and I) were there for only one night and came in late, but David's directions were perfect (the rock wall confirms that you are at the right place) and the ohana was a cinch to find, even after dark on a very dark street! Easy entrance to a warm inviting room with a comfy sofa, a desk to set up your laptop, a large dining table, a very nice kitchen area with all of the appliances that you'll need and that all-essential item (for us, anyway) of coffee for the morning. This would be an ideal place for a family with young children, as there's a high chair and children's books, dvds, toys and games - dvds and games for adults as well. We instantly felt at home. The ohana worked for us very well with the two queen beds, but it's suitable for really any kind of group up to 5. The bathroom is well-stocked and there are plenty of towels; the temperature in the ohana was perfect for sleeping with the warm comforters on the beds. There was a very useful book with menus of all of the local restaurants; the only one we had time to try was the Tuk Tuk Thai truck which was very good. We also went to the Volcano Winery and had a great time chatting with the staff plus trying their excellent wines ($5 for a flight of 7 wines, generously poured tastings). Our favorite was the pinot noir, but enjoyed all of them. A few minutes to the national park and David has the latest info on what trails are currently open, which was very helpful; note that at this time, most of the trails are NOT open. Lastly, when I had a last-minute semi-emergency back home and needed to call a number of people about the issue, my sister messaged David and he responded immediately and generously, allowing us to check out a half hour late. Excellent choice!

    David’s Ohana was amazing! Better than any hotel I have ever been too! The beds were super comfy with the best comforters ever which is good for a cold night in volcano! They have everything you need in the kitchen even baby amenities like a high chair, sippy cups etc. They have movies, toys and bird games. My family and I really enjoyed uno. And for people who want to adventure they have really good tips on what to do there in Volcanoes National park and even information on what’s going on with the volcano! I Really recommend this place!

    Perfectly located, just off the main road that leads to the Volcano. Extremely organized with a full kitchen setup and coffee and tea ready to go. Nice blackout curtains in the bedroom if you want to sleep late. Tons of guidance on where to go and sightsee on the east side of the island.

    We loved this place! Beds, linens and pillows were very comfortable. Excellent set up with private bed room and pull-out couch in the living room. The maps of Volcanoes National Park and information about things to do in the park was VERY helpful (much more than "standard" information), as well as great information on restaurants and hours of operation in town. Very nice selection of games and movies - highly recommend watching the video about volcanic activity 2004-2017, and wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy more games and movies.

    The place is very close to the Volcano National Park, which is fantastic. Note that there are basically no grocery stores in or near the park (very different from Kona or Hilo) - wish we had taken this into consideration! Host is on premise in a neighboring house, so we just ran over to ask where salt and pepper were. Although there is one bedroom, the five of us slept just fine on two beds and one couch. No washer/drier. Thoughtful touches such as specialty lotions and a variety of teas. I particularly enjoyed the passion fruit tea. Can't beat the location!

    It is the most quiet place I've never been to in any airbnb rentals. All our guests enjoyed the stay. The place is very thoughtfully arranged for real laptop friendly desk and an alarm clock (seriously, a traveler needs to know the time too!). Tea, regular coffee and even decaffeinated! The dining table is large and has more than enough chairs for 6 guests as posted in the description. It is too bad we couldn't stay longer due to the closure of the volcano site when we booked it so we didn't plan to stay longer than we would like. Also, Dave kept up to date for the latest development of the volcano park and suggestion for visit during our short stay.

    If you are going to Volcano National Park and are doing the long drive from Kona, this is an excellent place to stay. We saw all the sights in the park in one full day. We were very tired so having a place to stay was a must. Driving back to Kona tired and at night was not a good idea. This place fit our needs perfectly. The host has a book with restaurant suggestions which we used to find a place to eat. Once back the beds were comfortable and cozy. The place is very clean and roomy. My wife liked the decor. Everything in the guest house is very well organized and the host’s tips on how to see the sights in the park are excellent. The price is quite reasonable. The next day we drove back to Kona through Hilo and Highway 19 and got to see that very lush and green side of the island.

    David's place was great! Clean, cute and even had a Christmas tree with lights on it! He provides up to date information of the area as well as maps, restaurants, and other fun things to do on the island. He's easy to get in touch with, communication is clear. It's very kid/ family friendly and a great place to relax after exploring all day.

    David’s place was awesome! We flew in and had loose plans for the volcano. When we got to David’s Air BnB he had a giant map of the volcano and little hand outs of the surrounding crater. Talk about clutch! We quickly made plans for the following day and went straight to bed. The AirBnb was clean and cozy. The bed and linens were nice and thick as it was chilly. If we have an opportunity to visit again, we would definitely stay at his place!

    A last minute, amazing respite from the rain and government shutdown! My husband and I were supposed to be backpacking in Volcano National Park, but due to the shutdown, we had nowhere to go.. on Christmas.. luckily, David saved our day. He has prepared his air B&B to be PERFECT for visitors. Families welcome with toys and movies and dishes, comfortable beds and so much information on the park! Thanks so much!!

    Mahalo Nui for a wonderful stay at your place! We all wish we had booked your place for a longer period than just that one night. We felt at home and taken cared for, and we didn't miss anything. It was wonderful and we will book the same place in the future and recommend it to our friends.

    If you are planning to spend at least a day in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, BOOK THIS PLACE ASAP. It is located mere minutes from the park, and is a perfect home base for anyone looking for a comfy place to crash after spending hours on the trails -- so close, in fact, I came home and napped between hikes. It's also SO MUCH SPACE for the price, with thoughtful and hospitable touches, comfy beds, up-to-date information about goings on in HVNP, and great local restaurant recommendations. I cannot stress enough how lucky I was to snag this place, and how it made my time in Volcano that much more amazing.

    We were quite pleased with this air bnb property which we stayed in for one night. It's obvious that the host - David - put alot of thought into what he would need to offer his guests to make them feel like his place was a "home away from home" rather than just a place to stay! Thank you for doing this David! Check in and check out was easy-peazy (because his directions were very clear and accurate). The place was clean. It felt safe. It was easy to find. It was close to Hilo and the National Volcano Park. My room mates enjoyed the wifi. The parking spot right outside the door of this private guest house was super handy. Would we stay there again? Definitely!

    super good location and local stores and restaurants in the neighborhood. would recommend.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • David's house is very beautiful, in a very quiet place. It's easy to follow David's directions and signs. According to the advice he gave, the restaurant could be found easily. Thai restaurant is good. There are a lot of VCDs in the living room, but unfortunately we don't have enough time to enjoy them. The bed is very comfortable and the bedroom has body lotion.We like it very much. David is a very warm, careful host.we like it very much here, will definitely recommend to friends

    This place is very close to the Hawaii Volcano park entrance. David has excellent recommendations on what to do at the park and where to eat. It is a nice drive from Hilo where you can see waterfalls and go hiking. We had a great time and will stay in this place again.

    His place was extremely convenient to visit the Volcano National Park and had everything we needed. The 1 bedroom unit was very spacious and he had a very good direction to his place and a good amount of local information that is helpful for visitors. He was friendly and very quick to response to our inquiries. I would definitely stay there again when we visit the Volcano National Park.
