Perfect location

Aloha Lodge was the perfect location for our trip to Volcano National Park. Short distance to park and not far from Hilo and Pahoa. Extremely clean and comfortable. After a long day of exploring it’s the perfect place to relax and unwind. Would stay there again if in the area.

Private and cozy

Good communication and private location. Almost had a jungle feel to it by the way the yard was landscaped we really enjoyed our stay

Eco Lodge in jungle

GPS didn’t take us to the home. Coming in after dark, in the rain and a long travel day made this a challenge. The home was very cute and met our needs since we weren’t planning to cook. Lovely setting and close to Volcano Natl Park.

We loved this place!

Frankly the building didn’t look that spiffy from the outside, but was very nice inside. Everything we needed. Loved that it was off grid with solar and rainwater, without feeling like we were skimping at all. Would highly recommend! We also felt it was very reasonably priced.

Fabulous Stay

We had a fabulous stay and absolutely loved the cabin's lanais, all the natural light, the kitchen, propane fireplace, open concept, and wood features. The cabin was easy to get to and the access road is well maintained. We enjoyed cooking dinners every night and even enjoyed some cocktails out on the lanai using the stemware provided. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great stay

Very nice home, the home is fully solar-powered and uses filtered rainwater throughout, which was really cool. Roads to get there were a little difficult to navigate in a rental car.

Delighted to be "Off-the-Beaten Path!"

Great location for all we wanted to do on this trip to the Volcano area. The kitchen had everything we needed for preparing our meals. The bed and the reclining chairs were super comfortable after our active days! Fun to be using only solar power and rainwater, and our rainstorms were mostly at night! Would rent this property again in a heartbeat. Be sure to pay attention to owner's directions and not Google maps!

The cabin was clean and cute- but impossible to get a decent night’s sleep because the mattress was covered in plastic. Gross and sweaty!

Off the beaten path

Yes, we took a wrong turn and got lost like so many others. So look for Mauna Kea Drive and a camouflaged red and yellow sign that says "Aloha Estate". When we arrived in the pouring rain, it was cold and damp. The propane stove (sans shield and vent) was somewhat warming but we didn't feel safe keeping it on. And while there were three remote controls chained to the table, there were no instructions for cable/satellite/DVD player and which remote was for which. Turns out they have Starllink but who knew? Bed was comfortable. Neighbors were running a generator and blasted music in the middle of the night which could be heard over the pouring rain. I wish I could post photos for future visitors so they don't miss the turn. I'd recommend owners post the pics for future visitors.

Beautiful but not functional

This property is absolutely adorable once you can actually get there. There are definitely some improvements that need to made. The address isn't real... It doesn't come up on any maping program. The check in time is after 5 pm this place is not the easiest to find in the dark and you should probably have an SUV or your rental car might suffer damage because the roads are NOT paved at all. The listing says it has TV which it technically does but the TV is not hooked up to any service. The property management only left 2 towels so you need to buy or bring your own beach towel. They also do not have anything besides salt and creamer in the house so buy your own coffee because they don't even provide any for the 2 coffee makers. The host also does not provide soap for the shower so once again buy your own. The shower is beautiful but it isn't very functional either the rainfall watering doesn't provide you with any room to soap off. The property itself is just lovely and cute as could be but I really don't recommend this place.

This is a VRBO property in a more rural area. Unfortunately it was advertised as being in the Volcano area but it was a 15-20 minute drive to the park so not super convenient. Cabin is remote so has a lush garden feel with lots of birds, frogs, roosters & wild pigs. However access requires some patience (slow driving) as the roads are narrow with heavy vegetation, not lit at night & the final 1/2 mile is not paved (bumpy, potholes). A high clearance vehicle would be ideal, but a regular car rental is it OK if you go slow. Comfortable bed, but oddly mattress had a plastic bed cover, which was awkward to get used to. Also, a funny feel to the cabin as there are labels and stickers about the rules plastered everywhere. Modern fridge and stove and a wide assortment of kitchen amenities. This was very much appreciated as dining is limited in the area and we were able to make some great meals for our stay. Awesome bathtub experience with skylights, Beautiful windows, looking out to the tropical setting and birdfeeders. Covered outdoor dining area as well a back porch off the bedroom, which was great for reading and listening to the birds during the rain. Wi-Fi also works surprisingly well given the location given the location. The communication with the owner was disappointing when compared to other VRBO experiences. Given the more remote setting, and the fact they do not live on site, we had a few questions before and during our stay. The host was very brief and transactional.

Off the grid

Once we found the place the stay was great. Finding it in the dark was a challenge. The GPS said 1/4 mile in but it was actually .6 of a mile. Look for the white surf board at the end of the driveway.

Beautiful home in the middle of the jungle. Listening to the birds singing at night was magical! Two nights was certainly not enough. Super polite and accommodating owners. GPS location is true. Undoubtedly recommend. Strategically locate between Hilo and the Volcanoes park and other big island sightseeing locations! Mahalo and Aloooooha!

Cute cabin

The cabin is very private and quiet. There is EVERYTHING you need in the kitchen to cook a great meal and then some! The bed is comfy. There is lots to watch on Roko and some DVD's. We are from the mainland and had a very difficult time finding the cabin. The host's were able to help us with that. We did arrive in the dark. When we got there it was a pleasant stay.

Volcano/Jungle Getaway

Perfect for people wanting to stay close to the National Park. Beautiful place, has all updated amenities. No AC, but plenty of windows to get a breeze and hear the beautiful wildlife. Would definitely recommend staying here and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Absolutely beautiful place!

When you are driving here, especially in the dark, you can feel like you are driving to the middle of nowhere but that is exactly what makes this place so beautiful. You are surrounded by the beautiful sounds of birds singing, raindrops falling and so much privacy. The place is so well furnished and comfortable. Driving up, it was so nice to be welcomed by such a cozy cottage and how easy it was to check in. I am in love with this place, I already booked another visit here for my husband and my anniversary.
