Volcano Forest Inn

Good experience

The property is a good value for money, with a full shared kitchen and a good shower going a long way to make up for visibly worn surfaces. We had one maintenance item that was quickly attended to.

Was an overnight - it’s really in the forest! Big room would be perfect for a longer stay.

Location was great. Overall, the Inn was ok. The common area needed be spruced up and cleaned. The room itself was clean, but had a very strong musty odor. ( I do realise that we were in the rainforest ) . I think the area rug held the odor in. We actually thought about leaving earlier than planned, but we just were there to sleep. All of our communication was done via text and email. We never met the owner.

The property is very basic. No glasses or tissues in the bathroom, although glasses are available in the shared kitchen. The host, Jon, is very friendly. The location, as shown on Google maps, is incorrect. Better instructions before arrival are essential. The beds are comfortable but the bedding is too heavy for the climate. This is an acceptable choice but is only okay, not great. $80 cleaning fee for a basic room is excessive.

Very dated, our room was clean, (musty odor) and location to Volcano Park was very close. Breakfast was great and host was very nice. The property really needs to be overhaled, window screens and windows need to be cleaned, new carpet on front steps replaced, mold on the outside of building, a paint job for sure is needed. Pictures on the website really need to be updated. Make sure you read the fine print about paying a cleaning fee upon check in, We paid and extra $90 + taxes.

We made our own breakfast in the kitchen,

We had a wonderful stay at the Volcano Forest Inn. The large room, access to the full kitchen/common area, the quiet location surrounded by the rainforest, and the private deck allowed us to enjoy a relaxing visit. The inn has a great location just outside the national park. We were able to stop at several places before they became busy. There was a good amount of information on the area and a tv with current info on the volcano. The rooms are well maintained and comfortable. Overall, it was a great visit that I strongly recommend.

Just minutes away from the Volcano National Park. We had 3 rooms for our party of 9 and the rooms were all very big, with plenty of space for everyone. Snacks and breakfast items were provided; we especially loved the little packages of locally-made cookies. The owner was very quick to respond to our questions. Nice place to stay if you want to be close to the National Park.

It was a beautiful place with a wonderful walk in closet. The breakfast offerings were delicious, especially the cookies by Butter and Champagne Bakery. I would stay again there in a heart beat.
