We stayed at the Volcano Hale for 2 nights around May 18th 2008 or so. We chose it based on the price and location. I was a little worried when booking about the shared bathroom and small bedrooms. It turned out to be nothing to worry about. You check in at a different location and then find the Volcano Hale... more

i booked a room at volcano hale because it was the lowest price that i saw for a stay near volcano national park. the location was excellent, just 2 miles from the park on a very quiet residential road. there are 6 guest rooms in the house, with a shared large kitchen, living room and sun porch/eating area. overall the... more

This is a 3-story house that has been remodeled and various bedrooms given titles. We were sent to Nene, on the bottom floor, which was pretty small and had mildewed curtains. It was fairly cold and the walls were very thin. Bathroom was close but shared. The office upgraded us to the Lodge, the upper floor room, which was great.... more

As others have said in reviews before, we chose the Volcano Hale for two reasons. 1, it is so close to Volcanoes National Park you can be there in 5 minutes 2, it was cheap and appeared to be cheerful from the website. We stayed in the Malia room for the rate of $70 per night. Our budget per night... more

We stayed in the Ohia Room which is at the top of the house. The beds were comfortable and the windows full of green view of ohia (as promised in the name). The house has a nice kitchen and pretty sitting areas- very nice if you enjoy old style houses like I do. The bathroom was a bit humid, but... more

My husband and I spent one night at Volcano Hale. All I can say is I am glad it was just one night!. We stayed in the "Nene" room. The room was very small, had a queen bed, an outdated heater that belongs in a museum (you can feel the heat only if you 6 inches from it) and nothing... more

The chalet and other properties are very quaint and cozy. The location is ideal for visiting Volcano sites and is very reasonably priced. Free internet is a bonus and the food is great. Were very helpful to store our luggage for almost 4 days while we were backpacking mauna loa so that we didn't have to leave it in our... more

I am a 46yo female flight attendant traveling to the Big Island for the first time and accompanied by my 13yo son. My one goal was to visit the park. This property is ideally located for that, very very close to the park entrance. One thing is that, having traveled to the islands many times, I am invariably shocked at... more

The way they handled the reservation was pleasant. I received the confirmation immediately and also received a list of things to do in the area (with map). The property is just five minutes from the Volcano Park entrance and right off the main highway. This is a charming choice and nothing seems budget (ie cheap) about it. The bathrooms are... more
