Independent, Naalehu, Hawaii

"Room is cozy, clean with everything you need. And a fireplace! Front desk staff is super helpful and friendly. We didn’t have the luck to see the volcano eruption and lava flows, but staying at this place compensated a lot."

"My stay at the Volcano Forest Inn exceeded expectations. It was the perfect setting and quite the adventure driving in the light rain a few hundred yards down a dirt road surrounded by thick trees to finally arrive at this beautiful Inn nestled in the Volcano Forest. Jon texted very detailed instructions and information prior to my arrival which was very useful as well as welcoming. If I texted a question, he would promptly respond. Jon was there to greet me as I drove up and was very friendly...

"Lovely stay in room 5. Plenty of space and beautiful jungle views from the rooms. As close as the park as you can get without being in the park! "

"Clean rooms. Very quiet. Great location to the volcano. "

"Excellent! Recommended. "

"I did not realise that we were staying in a plantation village, with multiple accommodation. I had made a request for two beds and, as it was a slow time of year, we got two bedrooms. Pahala is a very cute town (and currently the only one with a grocery store as the one in Naalehu was no longer as at 28 Jan 25). The people were also really friendly. The only thing to consider is the roosters. If you want to sleep in - close the windows. We didn't, as the black sand beach was all ours at sunrise,...

"We loved our stay at Dragonfly Ranch. The location is out of the way but perfect for seeing the beauty and splendor that is Hawaii. The people are kind and interesting. It's not for everyone. You are quite immersed in nature. There will be geckos in your room and the birds and insects are right outside. It's almost like camping with a comfy bed. "

"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"
