Volcano Forest Inn0

Delightful little 5-room B&B surrounded by jungle and 5 minutes' drive from Volcanoes National Park. Room was extremely spacious (largest hotel closet I have ever seen) and came with a balcony. Hotel was quiet, and the communal kitchen and dining space was well maintained and well equipped.

The first night was fine, but as the weather turned a bit colder and rainier, it got quite chilly in our room at night, even using the provided space heater and even though we brought some warmer clothing for our time in Volcano. The provided breakfast was quite minimal in variety and quantity, so if you weren't there early, the other guests had already eaten most everything provided. I suggest stocking up on your own breakfast ingredients before leaving Hilo or Kona, as it's slim pickings in Volcano and at the hotel.

Very cozy big room, and lots of fruit available for breakfast! Not so far from the Volcano Parks Visitor Center either, yet still tucked away private in the jungle. Jon was so quick to respond and very helpful as well. Awesome spot to stay for a night or more! :)

Be prepared to be in a moist jungle, most buildings in the area may have some dampness. I just closed the windows and turned on the provided space heater to help though. :)

The Volcano Forest In is a small quaint lodge located just outside the Volcanoes National Park entrance. The host Jon was quick to respond and made checking in and out easy. Room number 3 was spacious, clean and comfortable. It had a large patio door that opened to the front of the lodge and a spacious seating area. The room boasted a large closet and a bath shower combination. A bonus was access to the full kitchen and living area with a TV. Free breakfast was fabulous with home-made waffles, oatmeal, local fruits and hot tea and coffee. There was plenty of room in the shared fridge for our to-go containers.

Can't think of anything.

Our room was very spacious. The best thing about Volcano Forest Inn is the location. You are a 1.5 miles from Volcano National Park and a very short drive into the village. The restaurants are really good, and the vibe of the entire location is wonderful. Birds are abundant, and although we didn't have a chance to explore art or the winery, we loved everything about the location. The Inn was also very quiet, and the host was so nice and knowledgeable about the area. We used this location as a stopping off point to black sand beaches, waterfalls, Kailua-Kona, Mauna Kea, and Hilo. If you are staying for more than 3 days - this is a great spot! Coffee was great and breakfast always had fresh fruit.

I misread and thought there were refrigerators in the room. There are not, but there is a large one in the common kitchen.

The Inn is definitely in the Forrest. It is a small Inn and is about a mile from the Volcano National Park. The room was big with 2 comfortable queen beds and a nice porch. You wake up in the morning with birds singing and surrounded by nature.

The road to the Inn is a small dirt road with no lights. Plan on arriving before dark the first night so you can find your way into the Inn. The entrance to the road is marked well.

I loved how the home was set back from the main road in Volcano Village. The owners were super sweet, and eager to please. There is plenty of parking and private entrances. I did not partake in Breakfast as I don't usually eat in the morning, but they seemed to have a great selection of fruits, cereal, and access to the kitchen/dining room. Owners were also very willing to talk story and gain knowledge on the volcano of which this Inn is located.

Being up at 4,000 ft it gets cold at night, a heater in the room would have been a major bonus. They did provide extra blankets, but I still got quite cold. Other than that, great stay!

The room was huge with an extra large closet. The house manager, Jon, was very accommodating! He let me borrorw a flash light to go see the volcano at night and even got me non-dairy milk for breakfast :) The breakfast was good and I enjoyed meeting everyone at the house. Bed was a king size and was comfortable with an extra heavy blanket in the closet for the cold night.

I thought the cleaning fee of $60 for one night was too much.

Great location; reasonable price; large, clean, comfortable room. Remote check-in was a little odd, but we met one of the co-owners the next day and he went out of his way to make sure our stay was comfortable. We stayed here so we could experience the lava at night and we were not disappointed.

Check-in requires PIN code which was no problem but other guest trying to access the property was confused.

It was quiet and secluded, yet everything seemed to be right around the corner. Great restaurants, food trucks, and little grocery shops for necessities. Volcano National Park is down the road and across the street. And our host, Jon, was warm, professional, informative, and kind. Thank you for everything. Warmly, Penni💫

I only wish there were more rooms so I could bring a group of friends with me to retreat here. I felt lucky to have gotten one of the 4 comfortably furnished rooms. Thank you. Warmly, Penni💫

The location is perfect, in the middle of the forest yet less than a minute from the main road and 3 minutes from the Volcano Natural Reserve. The room is cozy and spacious. The common areas are well appointed and nothing is missing. The host Jonathan is very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, he gave us very informative tips about the area and was always willing to help and make our stay easy and comfortable. A beautiful space we recommend, we will stay again.
