Great place for a group, super close to Volcano National Park entrance. Everything was clean, beds were comfy, had plenty of towels. We also liked that there were cards / games available to play. Would highly recommend for a larger group or family.

We had a group of eight for three nights and it was a great stay. The house is very comfortable with plenty of space. The setting is very peaceful and everyone loved spending time at the house. The location is great, just a few minutes from Hawaii Volcanos National Park. We would definitely stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
We had a family of 7 and this house was perfect for our weekend. It is quaint and has plenty of room for folks to spread out. In the main house: There is a main bedroom with a King bed and en suite bath, a bedroom with two twins and a bedroom with a queen bed that share a large bathroom. There is also a separate cottage with its own bedroom, bath and small kitchen. Be sure to stop for groceries in Hilo though...

This property was super-clean and very spacious. Everyone enjoyed being able to spread out and have their own space. We cooked dinner and then ate and played games at the large tables every night. The little cottage is such a great space! The only negatives to this property are completely out of the home owner's control. The frogs chirp incessantly in the evening/early night, the next door rooster wakes you up before 5 AM every day, the house is a bit humid, making the bed sheets feel damp, and the dirt road you have to drive on for the last 1/2 mile or so is pretty bad. If you go super-slow, you can avoid most potholes. Even with that being said, this house deserves an "Excellent" rating.

We enjoyed our time at this house. My husband and I stayed in the guest cottage while the rest of the family stayed in the main house. It was nice to be away from everyone. The road getting to the house was much more rough than expected.

Mahalo for your review, Lauren. We love hearing that you enjoyed your time with your family - plus a little extra padding - at Dancing Volcano Estate :-) Roads in subdivisions here are privately maintained and can be a bit rough. As long as you take it slow, you'll be fine in any vehicle (even a Honda Fit like I drive LOL). We hope we can host you again!

Beautiful house! The layout was fantastic for our extended family to stay while visiting my parents. It felt like an oasis at the end of the day. Loved the decor, especially having been to Japan previously.
Highly recommended!

Located very close to Volcanoes Natl Park- 10 min drive or less. The house is BEAUTIFUL and spacious. Very clean. At night, the frogs sing you to sleep! We were a group of 7 and we were very comfortable.We used the propane grill on the lanai to prepare dinner for our group. The kitchen is well-equipped. But probably the thing we liked most was how amazing the management company was! We unfortunately were visiting during a tropical storm, and had many questions before we arrived. The managers were VERY responsive via text and email before and during our stay. They even showed up in MINUTES after we requested some trimming of the bamboo next to the cottage. We will return!

This is a beautiful home in a very peaceful location. The property was spacious and accommodated our party of 8 with room to spare. The property is well maintained and the kitchen is well equipped. with virtually no ambient light the view of the stars is breathtaking and the home is in close proximity to Volcanos National Park. Communication with the owners is outstanding. Not only would I recommend this property without hesitation to my friends, I look forward to staying here again in the future. A true hidden gem.

My husband and I honeymooned on the Big Island in 2000 and we decided to come back for our 25th anniversary. We brought our 3 kids and my parents along as well. This property was perfect for our party of 7. The little cottage was a great retreat for me and my husband. My parents enjoyed the main master suite. My girls shared the twin beds and my son had his own room. Plenty of space for all of us. Kitchen rather well equipped. Thankful for the washer dryer and extra beach towels. We booked this property before the volcano started erupting. Sadly it decided to blow as we were headed back to the airport to leave! Driving up and down the mountain was a little more driving than we expected as we explored the island. But the rainforest was definitely a different experience. Nice and cool. Different sounds. Amazing foliage. If you’re looking for a non-coastal place to stay, this is it.
