We traveled with our one and a half year old and we truly could’ve packed a sack of clothes for him and been aye okay during our stay here with all the great amenities they had stocked up. You could true heart and soul went into this property and I can say without a shadow of a doubt, this is by far one of the best short term rentals we have ever stayed at! The quiet neighborhood and convenience to the national park was exactly what we were looking for during our first part of our Big Island trip.

Really enjoyed the stargazing in the beautiful, clear night sky. The beds were super comfy! Highly recommend!! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nabil S. Feb 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property Loved my stay at the Volcano Home. My friend and I spent the last two nights of our Big Island vacation here to access Hawai'i Volcano National Park and Hilo. The property is "off the beaten path" and provides an amazingly memorable experience with a very comfortable homelike experience. I appreciated the communication with Joshua and Geneva that made the entire experience seamless. A beautiful and delicious fruit basket was provided on the kitchen and the entire kitchen is stocked with various food items as well as delicious coffee. One thing that stood out for me was how sustainable the property is, relying on a rain water catchment system for water supply. I can't recommend it enough and can't recommend Joshua and Geneva as wonderful hosts. ##### Nabil S.
