We had an amazing time at the cabin. We only stayed 1 night but we wish we would’ve stayed additional nights. Jennifer is soo kind and so accommodating. Easily the most accommodating hosts we stayed with. The views from this cabin are STUNNING. It’s such a beautiful cabin. Highly recommend staying here if you visit Volcano.

The cabin was wonderful and cozy! It was very private and feel like you have the island to yourself. It was close to Volcano national National park which is something we were looking for when finding a place to stay. The host was so kind and communicative.

All good..but the parking

Was definitely as advertised. Beautiful location. Clean. Easy check-in and out. Only downside was the 15 point turn to get my truck into the parking lot since I was last in. I watched first out have to do the same thing in the morning.

Such a beautiful setting. The view of the ferns and the Flamingo Lily's were amazing. The unit was clean and had all that we needed for one night stay (wish it would have been two). The bed was extremely comfortable, and the nature sounds at night lulled me to sleep. This is a perfect place to stay for a visit to VNP. We didn't receive the check in instructions until after 4PM and this was a bit stressful, but there was someone on site who helped us. If we ever make it back to the area, I would stay here or another one of the units again. :)

Mahalo!

The Hapu’u room had a beautiful overlook of giant ferns and lush rainforest. Wonderful and accommodating hosts who were very responsive but respectful of privacy. I highly recommend Pacifica Inn if you’re looking for a peaceful stay. Thanks again to our hosts, Jennifer and Albert!

Rustic Tropical Get-Away

Can't say enough about the beautiful tropical scenery, the super clean room and bath. Just as advertised. We brought our own water to drink as suggested and the cool mountain nights were perfect. Very comfortable bed, lux towels and super quiet location. The host even sent us an up-date about the volcano eruption (unfortunately that happened before we got there) but we had a great time. Thanks so much!

The host canceled our stay at 4:00 PM on the day of check-in, without providing any explanation. This last minute cancellation was completely unacceptable, especially during the holidays. This was my first negative experience with a host, and it was extremely disappointing given the host’s high rating. I expected far better communication and reliability.While I appreciate VRBO for helping us secure a last-minute rebooking, we were already en route and had to drive to the opposite side of the island, only to discover that our reservation had been canceled. This caused significant disruption to our plans and unnecessary stress. Based on this experience, I found the host unreliable and would not book with them again.

It was a great place to stay. I would definitely stay there again. It was super quiet, clean, close to volcano. The only thing I would say is the driveway had a huge hole if maybe it could be filled with rocks and the soap dispenser was stuck. Oh yeah and the coffee pot didn’t work. All in all they brought us soap right and way with a new coffee maker. Definitely would stay there again😃

Cute & close to Volcano Nat Park

The property was cute and matched the listing. With the weather almost always raining/misting, the room is fairly damp and gets everything just a little damp. We had everything we needed, though, for our short couple of days!

My stay here was nice, but I suggest arriving there during the day, it's very dark there at night. The place was very nice and tropical nature feel. It was clean but smells like cedar, if that bothers you. Very comfy bed too. I stayed two nights with no problems. The area is dark and nothing around. Very secluded and a little eery when staying alone but it is very close to the volcano which is why I came! All in all great stay!
