This is a very interesting house for people with a sense of fun. Staying here for a week was like living in a jungle gym! So, if you have a fun sense of play and can live in a very flexible way, this house is for you! The spacious living room is over the garage, and the bedroom is actually behind the garage, totally separate from the upstairs and is accessible via outside stairs. (See what I mean about having a sense of fun?) Along with the coqui frogs at night and the farm animal sounds from next door mixed with DEAD QUIET, it's a one of a kind experience!! ##### Thomas B. ### 8/10 Good #### Tony P. Apr 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Volcano vaca Check in process was smooth and easy. The property had enough of the basic kitchen utensils to cook meals, the grill worked well. The small heaters provided quickly warmed up the cabin when needed. Bring plenty of fire starter if you plan to use the wood oven/ fireplace. The view from the back porch was as advertised, this felt like a very private getaway. We rarely heard noise from the neighboring properties. It would have been nice to have a few more outside seating options, especially to use the outside fire pit. Overall very happy with our stay and the proximity to the Park. ##### Tony P.

The fridge was broken, bathtub didn't drain, all dishes were dirty. Very dated house, smells stale, all the sheets had that old laundry scent. Layout was weird, completely separate bedroom entrance, at night it gets very creepy so we all just slept on a very bumpy n lumpy pullout couch On a plus side, listening to tree frogs was amazing ##### Olga R. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 4/10 Poor #### Rodrigo A. Feb 2, 2023 #### Bedroom not accessible from the home The listing is deceiving as it never mentions that the bedroom is downstairs, not accessible from the inside and not permitted by the county. This unit should be listed as a studio. The bedroom is a health hazard due to the strong mold smell. We had to sleep on the living room, there was no linens provided for the sofa bed, it was a really thin pad that you could feel all the metal base, so we had to ask for an air mattress. Not a chance of 4 adults staying. Also the listing doesn’t say the internet is via satellite which is really slow and can barely download e-mails and that you have to haul your trash. Vacasa should update the listing to reflect the reality of the property. ##### Rodrigo A. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Kimberly M. Apr 8, 2022 #### Nice home in the rainforest The house is clean and well stocked with everything from toiletries to cooking pans and utensils and even a washer and dryer. The layout is a bit quirky as the living room, kitchen and main bath/shower upstairs with the bedroom down stairs. It's easy enough to move around and the eaves keep you dry from the rain (remember it's a rainforest) as you move around the property. The privacy is second to none as the house is tucked nicely into the jungle with only views of the roofs of neighboring homes. If you're booking this place it is because you want to spend time at Hawaii Volcano National Park. It's a very short drive to the park, great hiking and great views. It is also very close to the wonderful restaurants in the town of Volcano. There are also a couple of minimart type stores there. However, the closest grocery store would be FoodLand in Keaau. Not a bad drive as you shouldn't have to run to a major store except once. As long as you're okay with stairs and don't mind rain, the place is homey and a good place to stay. The only problem we had was the gate code we were given was incorrect. A phone call got us into the emergency set of keys as they couldn't figure out the gate code either. We also called about getting a later checkout. I gave up after waiting on the phone for over 40 minutes for anyone to talk to. This isn't the owners fault by any means but a reflection on Vacasa itself. If they offer 24 hour contact, someone should answer the phone. ##### Kimberly M.

Should mention the house has an awkward layout with the bedroom downstairs next to the garage, so you have to walk outside in the rain to go back and forth.

I understand the properties are more geared to multiple nights, but that was too much. Five times advertised price. Also, would have appreciated some way to know what keys were for what locks. ##### George L. Stayed 1 night in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tiffany D.

A little strange that the bedroom is separated (downstairs with separate locked door) from the rest of the house and isn’t close to the bathroom, but we got used to that and really enjoyed the quiet jungle and the chickens. ##### Thomas G.

Jul 30, 2019 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Chalet dans la nature mais déçue de la disposition Nous avions réservé 3 nuits mais nous sommes restés seulement 2. La seule chambre est au rez-de chaussée et il n'y a pas store dans les 2 portes patio de la chambre. De plus, pour aller à la salle de bain, il faut sortir dehors monter au deuxième étage et entrer dans la salle commune. En arrivant ça sentait vraiment le renfermé. Nous avons donc dormi sur le divan lit au 2e étage, pas très confortable. La nuit il y a beaucoup de bruit. J'ai dû dormir avec des bouchons. Mais pour le reste c'était un beau petit chalet chaleureux dans la nature et très près du parc des volcans. C'était très facile aussi pour entrer sur les lieux. Nous avons été déçu mais pour ce qui est du prix c'est bien comme qualité/prix. ##### Loiselle J. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew J.

Apr 30, 2019 #### We loved our stay at this at this 'cabin in the woods' This was a great place to stay, quiet (except roosters and frogs, etc) and the fern forest was lovely. Not far from Hilo, Volcano and interesting sights (only about 30 minutes black sand beach Punaluu). The cool nights were great for sleeping. The house was comfortable, clean and spacious. The kitchen could use a sharp knife or two, and the poor outdoor lighting made getting in and out of the house and bath a bit tricky. Our family of four all slept in the main room and we did not use the separate lower bedroom at all - our little kids did not want to be so far away from parents. Overall very good and recommended! ##### Katherine R. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Thomas B. Feb 1, 2019 #### Wonderful accommodation to spend holidays We can highly recommend the accommodation. After the start problems were solved, the stay went smoothly. The problems concerned 1. internet connection, 2. hot water, 3. TV. 1. internet did not work for the first 5 days, so we had practically no possibility of communication as foreigners = unacceptable. 2 The problem was solved quickly and easily. 3rd TV: The instructions for use were unusable due to faulty operating devices. The problem was solved within a reasonable time. All in all we enjoyed our stay in Volcano very much. We would rent the Guardian Hwak again for our next trip. Best regards, Thomas ##### Thomas B.

Be aware that the bedroom is not inside the main part of the house. The room has it's own entrance from the outside behind the garage area downstairs and is not accessible from inside the house. It is five miles from the few shops of Volcano so if you need any supplies make sure and bring them with you. There were some shortages of knives and coffee mugs but otherwise it was warm, secure and is in a beautiful setting among the large ferns. You will be secluded in a wonderland of nature. ##### Sandra .. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marianne .. Apr 9, 2016 #### Secluded treehouse in rainforest This lovely home is private and tranquil on the outskirts of Volcano. Clean, professionally decorated, newer construction, laundry facilities, tons of porch space, comfortable sleeping, wood-burning fireplace, and an outdoor tub to unwind while listening to the abundance of animal sounds at night. It's truly spectacular...if you can embrace the feeling of being out in the "country" with a locking driveway gate, some low water pressure issues, a running toilet, lots of stairs, and solitude. Purchase all your grocery needs outside of Volcano and arrive during daylight hours to successfully find this property, unlock gate, and retrieve house key. If you arrive after sunset, you will need a flashlight to help. My family of 4 loved it! ##### Marianne .. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Paniolo Greens At Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Paniolo-Greens-At-Waikoloa.h599417.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Bali Hai Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Princeville-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Bali-Hai-Villas.h1744108.Hotel-Information) > > [Waimea Plantation Cottages, a Coast Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Waimea-Hotels-Waimea-Plantation-Cottages.h52880.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Kauaʻi Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Kauai-Beach-Resort-Spa.h583022.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Ocean Tower Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Ocean-Tower-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h28763131.Hotel-Information) > > [Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Waikoloa-Beach-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h22600.Hotel-Information) > > [Sugar Beach Resort - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Sugar-Beach-Resort-Maui-Condo-Home.h101695.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Lanai](https://www.expedia.ca/Lanai-City-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Lanai.h2980.Hotel-Information) > > [Mauna Kea Beach Hotel, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Mauna-Kea-Beach-Hotel.h34873.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay, HI](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Kauai-Wailua-Bay.h25719.Hotel-Information) > > [Hana-Maui Resort, a Destination by Hyatt Residence](https://www.expedia.ca/Hana-Hotels-Hana-Maui-Resort.h933.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Hapuna Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-The-Westin-Hapuna-Beach-Resort.h34872.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Royal-Sonesta-Kauai-Resort-Lihue.h8373.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kahului-Hotels-Maui-Beach-Hotel.h18554.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Castle Kama'ole Sands](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Castle-Kamaole-Sands.h21083.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairway Villas Waikoloa by OUTRIGGER](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Fairway-Villas-Waikoloa-By-OUTRIGGER.h914142.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Beach Vacation Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Beach-Vacation-Club.h2457.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Kaua'i Beach Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Marriotts-Kauai-Beach-Club.h1767377.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Kamaole - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Kamaole-Maui-Condo-Home.h101693.Hotel-Information) > > [Lahaina Shores](https://www.expedia.ca/Lahaina-Hotels-Lahaina-Shores-Beach-Resort.h84901.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Maui Bay Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Bay-Villas-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h3001.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston Maui Hill](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Aston-Maui-Hill.h24554.Hotel-Information) > > [Mauna Lani, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Mauna-Lani.h426160.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Oahu North Shore](https://www.expedia.ca/Laie-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Oahu-North-Shore.h9727677.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Coast Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Coast-Hotel.h28645.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston at the Maui Banyan](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Aston-At-The-Maui-Banyan.h22568.Hotel-Information) > > [Hanalei Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Princeville-Hotels-Hanalei-Bay-Resort.h460385.Hotel-Information)
