Kalapana Vacations from ￥191,572

The location was great! Minutes from Volcanoes National Park! Also it was close to some restaurants and gas! The place was spacious and had comfortable bedding. There was a heater for cooler nights! The coffee pod machine and fridge are such nice features!!!

This property was the highlight of our trip to Hilo. The gourmet dinner and included breakfasts were terrific. We will plan to come back!

Overall, experience is disappointing. Fell far short of the $360/night price tag. - Check-in Mix-Up: Entered our initial room and shocked that it was already occupied by another guest. After calling emergency support, we were quickly reassigned, but received no apology for the mix-up. - Room: The second room was nicely decorated with a comfortable queen bed, but it was very small, cramped with a tiny 4.5 X 4.5 feet shower stall. - Breakfast: Expecting a fresh, hot B&B breakfast (eggs, bacon, toast, coffee), we were served pre-packaged kids' items instead: boxed cereal, instant oatmeal, Capri Sun, and frozen French toast that turned rubbery when microwaved.

Well-situated to beautiful coastal walking. Friendly, helpful proprietors, quiet and comfortable

Staying here was a once in a lifetime experience! We were just steps away from the ocean which was breathtaking to view from lava rock cliffs. Our accommodations really set the vibe for this part of the Big Island. It was very tropical and like living in a rain forest with the greenery and fragrant flowers. The outdoor shower was a refreshing experience ( though an indoor shower is available, this outdoor shower is a must-do). Everything you need for a comfortable stay is provided, many little thoughtful touches. The accommodations were very clean. The hosts are very friendly and helpful. They are very passionate about living on this part of the island and eager to share their excitement with you. Breakfasts are delicious! Especially all of the fresh fruit. The lodge is a destination in and of itself, not just a place to sleep after seeing other places on the island.
