“perfect!”
+We really loved our stay at Volcano Teapot Cottage. The cottage is warm and cozy, with everything we needed ready for us. It feels just like home. It was even nicer in person than in the photos. The location is very convenient, only a short drive from Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. We enjoyed the quiet surroundings a lot. Bill is such a thoughtful host. He took care of many small details in advance and was always easy to reach. As the hurricane drew near, he kindly shared lots of safety tips and useful suggestions about alternative activities after the national park closed. Although we made our own decision to head to Kona early, knowing Bill was there gave us tremendous peace of mind. We felt so welcome and well looked after during our stay. We would definitely stay here again when we come back to Big Island, and highly recommend it!

“A cute little cottage in a perfect location for the volcano”
+I can echo the other reviews, Bill was so helpful, the kitchen is well stocked with breakfast foods, the cottage is spacious, beautifully decorated & very clearly located to the volcano Park. The bathroom was a great size also. The property was also easily to find & access.
−It was really wet on both the days we were here & I think a dehumidifier could be a good idea at such an elevation as the temperature monitor in the bedroom showed 75% humidity when I arrived, & reached 86% by the morning. It might be worth monitoring this to keep the property fresh :)

+Bill was nothing short of a lifesaver. We were there in the thick of Hurricane Lala, and he took great care to make things as comfortable and safe for us - with candles, torchlight, water and more. His standard set of breakfast provision consisting of pastries, fruits, eggs, frozen bread and more were plentiful - it lasted us two meals. He also helped us plot a route once it was safe for us to head to our next location. Mahalo Bill!

+The pictures on the site don’t show how great this place is! Very spacious, clean and the host is very attentive to details. Plus it is super close to the Volcano national park. Would definitely come back here

“The. Best. Cottage.”
+EVERYTHING! As a global traveler, this stay was a rare anomaly, where everything about the stay exceeded every standard. Bill’s thoughtfulness on the incredible hospitality is immeasurable. The amount of character and style in the cottage is one in a million. Absolutely stunning property and I will always dream of this place.
−I didn’t like the phenomenally delicious sweets he’d leave DAILY for us.

“This was the best rental I have stayed in, and I have been using rentals for over 15 years.”
+The breakfawst supplies were copious and excellent, from the coffee to the pastries, to the Hawaiian fruits, yoghurts,granola , and Portuguese sausage and eggs which we prepared at leisure, when we were ready to cook a little. Everything we consumed was replenished the next morning.
−Nothing.
