We stayed 3 nights at this lovely place in the middle of a rainforest jungle on near the Volcano National Park on Hawaii. The owners are very friendly with the typical Aloha laid back style. Yeah...there could have been a better job done on the floors and sure a couple of cobwebs in the corner but otherwise I loved it.
The breakfast was quite varied I felt, with homemade "Tropical" pineapple/banana bread each day, bowl of fruit, nice granola, OJ, Milk, coffee, tea, hot chocolate and hot cereal for those who wish it. Also Ramen noodles and microwave popcorn for a snack.
We used the spa a couple of times and it was lovely to sit in the warm water after the sun went down and the mist descended. We put on the 'disco' lights and enjoyed it!
The only downside was on our last morning the upstairs was used by a family with teenagers who decided to play their ipod LOUDLY at 7am...luckily we did have to get up, but frankly that was more the parent's issue than the lodges. It's not terribly sound proof, so if you get a loud family or people in the other rooms I can see that being annoying. Though the other nights we were there the others were fine.
My husband did the Lava Tour and loved it. It was too much for my knee, but he said it was really great.
