The cottage itself was very cozy and clean. Due to the weather we had to use the de-humidifier and space heater which were so helpful to have and both worked quickly when we needed them!The welcome packet had lots of helpful recommendations for things to do and places to eat. We were able to go to some of the recommended restaurants and they were wonderful.We would absolutely recommend this place to others and would happily go back!

The Dancing Bamboo Cottage is a perfect romantic get away for a couple, our stay was peaceful and the experience was bliss. Very clean and though it was cold, there was a provided heater that kept us comfortable. We left satisfied and well rested as every vacation should be!

Lovely setting, very remote. Clean, comfortable accommodations for the three nights we stayed. Ten minute drive to the Hawaii Volcano National Park and Volcano village which was convenient. We met local family at the park each day to explore and hike in the National park. The internet worked very well. The shower was lovely, nice hard shower and plenty of room. We would recommend this property!

Everything went very smooth no issues. Plan on coming back.

The bathroom was my favorite feature of the place with a large shower and two mini sinks. It does require opening and closing a gate when entering and leaving the property but is normal among the surrounding properties.

Really enjoyed our time there. Will be coming back again soon

I think window blinds would be a nice addition to the rental even though it was a very private location.
