About this house rental
Hale 'Apapane is a large, well decorated home located near the heart of Volcano Village and 1 mile from Volcano National Park. It has 2.5 baths, 3 bedrooms, 4 beds, a large living area, and a 4 person hot tub. We have a fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, hot tub, back deck with a gas grill, and a covered basketball court. The house is set in the native forest with giant Hapu‘u ferns, ‘o‘hia trees, and native birds all around.
My wife and I moved here in 2006 with our kids, designed and built this house with other family. We lived here for the next few years, worked on the landscaping, and decorated it with local art and photography. The house has its own solar energy and filtered, drinkable catchment water.
The house has a open floor plan downstairs and lots of windows to look out on the rainforest. It is a good layout for large groups or families as it facilitates connection, but also has private feeling bedrooms upstairs that have some separation from each other. The master bedroom has its own bathroom, and there is another full bathroom upstairs for the other two bedrooms. We have a laundry room with a washer and dryer, a smart TV with high speed wifi.
The covered basketball court is a big hit with families with kids, as it does rain in Volcano often. We have some board games and toys as well. The back deck is set looking out on the rainforest and lush landscape and the hot tub is a great place to unwind after a day of activity at Volcanoes National Park or somewhere else.
We are a 5 minute drive to Volcanoes National Park and a 2 minute drive to Volcano Village. Volcano is a cute little town with a few restaurants, general stores, a community center, playground, and a nice farmers market on Sundays.
Volcano is at 3500 feet in a high elevation tropical rainforest, so it is never too hot. It can be chilly and damp depending on the weather, so it is nice to have the mini split heater and wood stove.

This was a great house very clean had great views and you do feel like you’re in the middle of a jungle. The house is very well kept and we would definitely stay here again.

If you want to explore Volcano National Park you could not get a better location. The home itself is easy to find and the outdoor surroundings beautiful. Inside the home feels tired and worn out. Bedrooms and furnishings OK. Towels supplied to us were hard and look like they came from Goodwill or a thrift store, some even with stains. Some glasses and dishes are chipped so watch for this. Pots and pans in ok to poor condition. Interior of oven has years of built & stuck on grime. Not comforting or appetizing to cook in. The owner quickly replaced the grill (5 stars for that) within 24 hours because what was there was in deplorable not working condition. Tub in Master bedroom is not jetted as described. Hot tub was only used once and was OK but the controls for that were "iffy" and unit did not work as it should have. Overall the interior and appliances were disappointing for a guest rental. BUT, location, location, location was ideal.
