+This review is long overdue, but the proprietors of this property deserve a shout out. This property was absolutely stunning. Nestled in the rainforest, the October evenings and mornings were cool and crisp, and quiet, but teeming with sounds of wildlife. We were provided with tasty pastries and fruit for our stay. In the daytime, we ventured to the black sand beaches, Kilauea, a farmer’s market, and nearby towns. We absolutely loved our room, which had a fireplace, very comfortable beds, small kitchenette, and good supply of local snacks, local non-alcoholic beverages, and french press coffee and teas. Our stay at Crater’s Edge was the highlight of our Hawaii vacation. Next time we are in Hawaii, we will definitely find our way back to this property. Our only complaint is that the hot tub jacuzzi wasn’t working…..they were waiting on parts to repair it. Highly recommend staying here.
“Five Stars!”
+Wonderful experience. Gracious and charming hosts. Luxurious accommodations in magical rainforest setting. Minutes from Volcano national park. Highly recommend.
“Fantastic Hidden Gem”
+We were impressed from the moment we arrived. The setting is amazing, with two of the best hosts around! No details were ever overlooked, from the assortment of snacks to the already prepped coffee. Room was beautiful! We enjoyed getting some recommendations and volcano updates. My only complaint was that we had to leave. We will be back for sure!

+We LOVED our stay! We would absolutely stay here again. So many thoughtful touches. Thank you!
+This stay was one of the highlights of our trip to the Big Island. Eric & Chris are exceptional hosts who have thought of EVERYTHING. They were very communicative and accommodated our check-in later than originally planned and met us personally to orient us to the property and make local recommendations based on our trip plans. This property is full of luxurious amenities and thoughtful touches like fresh flower garnishes, heated floors, french pressed coffee in the mornings and many more for you to discover. The location is a very short drive to Volcanoes National Park and the property itself is surrounded by lush rainforest plants and wild chickens. The stargazing at night here is epic. The room is also very private and comfortable for couples - absolutely suitable for a honeymoon or other romantic trip. Highly recommend! Mahalo Eric & Chris!
+The property is surrounded by a tranquil rainforest feel. Room is beautifully decorated and filled with special touches, including fresh baked banana bread and many goodies! 10 mins from volcano national park.
+Wonderful host, beautiful accommodations, all the amenities you would need in a gorgeous rainforest setting.
“AMAZING!!!”
+Amazing experience. Chris was so welcoming. The details of the room were perfect- beautiful space, great amenities, clean, and comfortable. Seems like everything was thoughtfully planned including snacks to take on the road, umbrellas, and binoculars.
+Our stay was truly exceptional. At The Crater's Edge is beautiful and serene allowing us to fully relax and unwind. Our hosts, Chris and Eric, were outstanding in their attention to detail. Their thoughtfulness was evident in every aspect of our experience. This was easily our favorite place to stay while in Hawaii.
“no working hot tub.”
+The host did not inform us the hot tub was broken. I wish we were allowed the opportunity to cancel since it was the main reason for our stay. Communication is key. Seems based on another review, this issue was already present.
