Volcano Hale

Overall I'd give 4.5 stars. Great location if you want to be close to the National Park. I received a free upgrade to the king room on the ground floor, but there was a persistent musty smell, similar to a gym locker. The dehumidifier in the room would not work, despite the instructions to juggle the tank until the light turns off. I suspect this is the cause of the smell. Otherwise the accomodations were fine, bed was not very comfortable but worked after a long day hiking. Check in and check out were easy and there was enough space for parking. I would stay here again for the price and proximity to the park.

The private room was very comfortable. The shared kitchen and bath were fine. It was a peaceful location.

最初、Kioskとはなにかわからなかったが、行けば分かるように掲示板があった。 また、google mapでみたとき、駐車場がどこかわからなかったが、問題なく駐車スペースがあった。 バストイレは共通だが、タオルの入れ替えは2日に一回くらいだった。 冷蔵庫に物を保管するときは、近場のスーパーで得た紙袋に部屋番号を書いていれておいた。特にイタズラされることはなかった。 玄関の鍵を開け閉めするのにコツがあり、鍵を深く入れてから、抜けないようにすこし鍵を引いたところでしか回らないものだった。 また、靴を脱ぐスタイルの宿だった。 しかし、kilaueaからかなり近く、利便性はよかった。 古いので温水が出るのに時間がかかった。 費用は抑えられた。また火山の活動と休みがあえば、泊まりたいと思う。

Place was nice and clean. Since it was dark just need more path lighting. Was kind of far from town but overall a great place to stay.

It reminded me a bit of a hostel in terms of the shared kitchen and bathroom. However the room was much nicer than most hostels I’ve been to. It

Unique old charm in a building from 1912. No issues sharing the bathrooms. Comman area good with fridge and cooking options. Limited dining options however super convenient for volcano exploring.

Very interesting house with a nice area. Especially like the room setup it's easy access to the kitchen and the bathrooms. I'd recommend it.

The house is in a lovely area, close to the volcano national park, which is what brought us here. Owner was easily reachable. Facility has lots of supplies for showering and sleeping. The reason for the 3 stars is the flooring is old carpet and in much need of replacement. Although there is a housekeeper that comes and I’m sure they’ve cleaned the carpet it’s just time to replace it. The only other issue is check in. It’s self check in and quite simple which is nice but the keys are left outside and anyone could come and pick them up and go in. My suggestion would be a keypad entry to house given only to guests then have keys for guests waiting inside. Otherwise it’s a nice older home easily accessible to the park and provides the basic necessities in bath, kitchen and bedrooms.

Beautiful location in a very quiet neighborhood. We stayed a week at Volcano Hale. Bought our own groceries near the airport since we read there were no stores near the house. Drove over 2 hours from Kona and less than an hour from Hilo when we did day trips. The house is only close to Volcano National Park. We did everything from seeing the turtles on Black Sand Beach, 4 wheeling to star gaze up over 13,800 feet on Mauna Kea Volcano, 4 wheeling to Green Sand Beach, saw Akaka waterfall, the sea arch, snorkeling at Captain Cook Monument, hiking 4 miles, secluded beaches, several costal cliff overlooks etc. This home was very comfortable in the middle of nowhere with beautiful flowers and we enjoyed the short moments we saw other guests. Everyone is tired after sightseeing so we all just slept. We cooked most of our meals here. There is a refrigerator to keep groceries cold. A stove, microwave, coffee maker with coffee provided and a toaster. Lots of clean towels, shampoo, soap and toilet paper provided. No lotion or conditioner. We had to empty the dehumidifier daily and even had a guest from downstairs ask us to turn ours off because it rattled his ceiling. I guess bring ear plugs so you can sleep peacefully like we did. Our room #306 on the second floor had 2 queen beds. Same floor as the kitchen and dining room. The ground floor had several rooms, own entrance, bathroom and sitting area. The 3rd floor has another bathroom & 2 bedrooms. Yes we recommend this home.

Good vibes and amazing to have gas to cook with in the middle of the jungle 😊🌺

A really roomy, comfortable place to stay. Nice kitchen and dining room, big bed, excellent showers and bathrooms. Absolutely worth the money.

There was mold in the 1st floor bathroom. The sign was covered in it. I had to empty the dehumidifier 2x daily in my room and in the main room. Linoleum and carpets are in desperate need of repair. Housekeeping came to get the towels daily but never cleaned the bathrooms the 4 days I was there. Since it is set up like a hostel with several people using the same bathroom, it should be cleaned daily. No A/C and only a tiny inefficient fan. It gets hot inside.

So clean and peaceful. Perfect for a place to rest after a day of hiking the island.

This house hotel was great. Check-in was a breeze and the private and shared spaces were well maintained for an older property. The village of Volcano is quite small but had some great dining options. The property itself felt a bit isolated, and that was generally a positive for me. However, I could see how some could find its isolation a negative.

Old, finicky pumbling, surrounded by sounds of burds, bugs, and frogs that might disturb the sleep of some. Location to park excellent

There is a lot of noise, but it’s the sounds of beautiful birds chirping . The neighborhood felt safe and tranquil.

Near the national park entrance, not near anything else. Plan on doing a lot of driving if you stay here. The conecide would probably be best for most people. The house is small, the bathrooms are shared, very basic.

Not having someone there was convenient and kind of odd at the same time. It’s a very creaky house due to its age. The price is the best I saw on the whole island. Pretty far from the bigger towns though.

A very nice low cost alternative to expensive Hawaii. At night you can hear frogs, crickets, birds and rain drops which makes for a serene backdrop while sleeping.

Excellent place , well run !

Very accommodating had everything you need for a comfortable stay and for the price you simply cannot beat it would recommend to anyone staying in the big island of Hawaii also love the fact that's it's a 5 minute drive to the nationalbpwrk

Volcano Hale is excellent at what it says it is, and I therefore give it 5 stars. It is not an Inn or an Hotel! It is, though, a fun, comfortable, eclectically decorated self-catering place. So you check yourself in to a spacious vintage house, cook your own food, share bathrooms, and (most importantly) you clean up after yourself. The bedrooms are quite nice. You will also meet lovely new people at the breakfast table, or when you return each evening from a thrilling day of peering into volcanoes. Highly recommended as fun, different, interesting, comfortable, and good value.

Es un lugar para pasar la noche muy bonito. Queda muy cerca del parque de volcanos

Near the national park entrance, not near anything else. Plan on doing a lot of driving if you stay here. The conecide would probably be best for most people. The house is small, the bathrooms are shared, very basic.

Unique experience, a stay at an old Hawaiian house we had to ourselves. Old and quaint but in good condition. Very convenient for visiting Volcanoes NP and a few dining options nearby.

Good location near the Volcano National Park, quiet pleasant stay in a historic property.

It was a very affordable way to stay and I was able to enjoy the beauty of the island, but get your groceries before
