We were staying at a condo in Mauna Lani but decided to do an overnight stay in Volcano. We needed two bedrooms and two bath. This property fit the bill. Only suggestion would be more comfortable beds.

Charming property and grounds, great neighborhood (a few barking dogs made us a little nervous on a walk, but they seemed to be behind fences mostly), easy access to VNP (we mainly hiked around the Crater, etc.), wonderful bed linens, towels, decor, fully stocked kitchen and extra pantry items, lovely porch, nice electric fireplace.
One bonus would be to upgrade the mattresses--one was very hard and the other two a bit softer than preferred.
Two bathrooms for the 5 of us was also very nice for our group.
All in all, great stay. Easy access to Hilo side. Everyone wished we had booked it longer! We would definitely stay here again.

We loved this place set in the jungle. It was just right for our needs. It’s so close to the National Park that we got to sleep in that morning! Lots of extra touches and amenities that made our stay so good.

This is a fantastic property. My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return in the future.

This place fit well into the rain forest environment. A few nearby roosters were our morning alarm clock and a variety of exotic birds provided beautiful song during breakfast.
The Jungalow is well located for visiting Volcanoes National Park. Perfect for a family vacation.

We loved Volcano and this house was our favourite of all the home stays in Hawaii. The fireplace created a cosy atmosphere and each room had its own separate heaters and heated blankets to take the chill off cold evenings. Thank you for having us.

The house is not fancy but, is close to the park and you have all the basics you need for a short stay.

The Jungalow was perfect for the 5 members of our family. It was very comfortable with all the amenities we needed. We especially liked the coffee bar! We will be back!

Such an amazing property! Mira left notes on everything in the house so there was no confusing!

The house is just as advertized - beautiful and clean and had everything we needed, including an only 8 minute drive to the entrance of the park!

Super stay. Everything was just right. The impatiens and hapu'u in the front yard are beautiful. The wall decor and comforters are welcoming. The gas fireplace is the bomb! The kitchen is well appointed. Love the turquoise blue glaze on the dishes. Lockbox worked just fine. Had baby with us and appreciated the high chair etc. Did not run out of hot water, yay. Perhaps the listing could be more specific about the beds or perhaps I didn't read the listing carefully enough. Front room with dual entry doors felt like a full sized bed, not a queen sized? This place was just perfect for what we needed!

We really enjoyed our stay. It was very kept and in a great neighborhood. Very quiet and relaxing. Would definitely stay here again. Minutes away from the volcano and a few restaurants.

We enjoyed our stay at the Jungalo. It is an excellent location for accessing Volcano National Park. It is close enough that we could come back for lunch and return to the park later in the day. The property has privacy and is quiet (no traffic or loud neighbors). The nature sounds at night are just beautiful. The fire was much appreciated in the early mornings and in the evenings after we got back from exploring. The host has done a good job anticipating the needs of guests and has supplied the property well. She was friendly and responded quickly to messages.
I would say that the only negative we noted, was the comfort of the beds and pillows. They weren't super comfortable for us, but I also acknowledge that comes down to personal preferences, so what didn't work for us might work for others.
Overall we had a positive experience and would recommend the Jungalo!

My family (husband, mother and two sons 9 & 11) enjoyed our two night stay. Mira is a most thoughtful host! The beds were comfortable. We loved the fireplace during the chilly nights, and my sons moved their electric blankets. Our favorite part was listening to the songs outside at night. The birds, frogs, insects…we actually recorded it because it was like nothing we’ve ever experienced. Totally felt like we were in the rain forest. The proximity to Volcanoes National Park can’t be beat! And if you get a chance to eat at Rico’s Taco truck…do yourself a favor and GO! The Birria tacos were beyond fantastic!

We had three adults and a four-year-old. The place was amazing for all to us. The night sounds, the location near the volcano, and all the advice we received before hand on places to visit and eat were perfect.

We come to Volcano at least once an year even if Halemaumau is not erupting. Jungalow is well-kept and clean. It provides everything to make a short stay pleasant. Wi-fi works well as did the TV. Kitchen is generously equiped- salt, pepper even oils.
The living area is cozy and comfortable. Even in September the nights and early mornings are chilly. The gas fireplace is perfect. Shower is nice with hot water.
We enjoyed our stay and would return.

The jungalow was one of the best Vrbo’s I’ve stayed in (even internationally)! The house was impeccably clean and there was such attention paid to every detail to make our stay more comfortable. Mira really went over and above to make sure we had everything we needed. The little things like coffee, soaps, spices and oils, laundry detergent, heating blankets, fans, etc are what really makes a good stay into an amazing stay. And again…did I say it was clean? Fabulous! Also so close to the national park that we could go to the lava tube and overlooks several times in one day :). If I’m ever back, here this is where I am staying!

We had a really pleasant two night stay at this house. It's nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. Very close to the volcano gave us the chance to arrive the park early and stayed late. I'd recommend.

My family of four (2 adults, six year old, and four year old) stayed here for three nights while visiting Volcanos National Park. It was amazing!
The house is set in the dense rainforest and you can hear gentle bird calls all day/night long. It’s just a few minutes from Volcanos National Park, so we got to hit the trails before it got crowded or hot.
The beds were firm, the fireplace so cozy on a cool mountain night, and the entire house had a snuggly vibe. The kitchen is very well stocked and everything was clean.
Mira (the property manager) was kind, responsive, and gracious. She made me feel like we were welcome guests in her home.
If we ever make our way to the Volcano again, I would stay here in a heartbeat. (And part of me wants to just move here permanently!)

The Jungalo was a perfect spot for our family of 5 as we explored the Volcanos National Park. Bedrooms are cozy, comfortable, and have everything you need to relax after a long day. We only wish we had more time there to explore! Would highly recommend staying at Mira’s jungalo and would definitely return again on our next visit.

What a gorgeous location and beautiful, thoughtfully decorated home to visit Volcano and Hilo area! We were over on Hawaii for a week to enjoy Volcano and support our eldest daughter paddling with Lanikai Canoe Club in the State Championships in Hilo Bay. We all slept very well, enjoyed the cooler nights and breezes, time around the fireplace, stargazing, and thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Jungalow! Mira was most thoughtful to provide fruit from her farm, and gifts of Hawaiian snack for us to enjoy! Her hospitality was wonderful and the home was well stocked with all we needed for kitchen, bed and bath - even beach towels and a few chairs for our regatta day! We highly recommend staying at this remarkable home and can't wait to return!

The Jungalow is such a lovely vacation home. The owners clearly take very good care of the home and property. The furniture is comfy, the kitchen is well organized and well stocked, and the open concept layout of the house is very nice. The property is filled with natural beauty and we enjoyed the quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The house is near the Volcanoes National Park and Volcano Village. The neighborhood is a nice place to take a walk or a jog. I can’t wait to be able to stay there again.

The ”jungalow” is nestled in the rainforest and feels very private and secluded. It was super clean and well equipped; has everything you need for cooking although we opted to eat out most nights. No dishwasher but a washer and dryer in the attached garage. Nice bedding and towels. Not as close to Volcano Village as some properties we’ve stayed in, but nothing is more than a 5 minute drive away; 10 minutes (max) to the park entrance. Everything you need for a few days in Volcano!

Just the cutest house! We loved the fire and surprised but we actually used it! Definitely bring your ear plugs the nocturnal frogs are no joke! We were so comfortable and really enjoyed our stay my only tip for cleaners would be to leave a new unopened sponge for the dishes.

Such a great place! Beautiful, cozy, clean, easy check in/out process. This place is immersed in nature. Loved coming back here after spending day at Volcano National Park. The neighborhood is magical. The whole place/yard.... even better in person ! Roosters were in the yard one AM and it was so fun to see them foraging. Will be recommending this wonderful find to anyone I know coming to visit this area. Stay here, you will be so glad you did.

An absolutely great place to stay if you want to visit Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. It is very close to the park, yet the location was away from all the hustle and bustle. It was easy to go back for lunch and then go back later in the evening, or early in the morning to avoid the crowds. The house was perfect for our group of 4. Having two bathrooms really helped. The hosts provided many of the basics - napkins, paper towels, ziplocks, ice cubes, and some nice extras with a selection of coffee pods and teas; two large umbrellas that came in very handy; and beach towels. I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to visit HVNP for more than a day.
