Leo was a great host at Fern Forest. It is a beautiful property, very quiet and kind of out off the beaten path. The house itself is beautiful with 3 to 4 room with their own restrooms and refrigerators. The communal living space is awesome if you get lucky, you may be the only one staying there and will have the run of the entire house I will definitely stay again!

Leon was the perfect host. He made sure we knew where we were headed spent an hour letting us know where and when to avoid the crowds. The house was very nice and spacious. The property was, as the name suggests very forested in a rain forest. The only reason a 5 star was not given was the bathroom needed a lightbulb for the shower and the actual showerhead was about a foot higher than normal. Once these minor problems are fixed, it should/will be better.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
it was welcoming to pets .but I didn't have a pet,and there was no hot tub and if it was I would not have gotten in it, I was afraid to even get into the shower. Floor mats were dirty , the bathroon window was so dirty that i could not see out of the windows. The croking frogs keep me awake all night. I could not wait to day break to get out of there. There was a lock on one door but the bathroom door which lead in my room did not have a door lock, which ment that the lock on my door waqs irrelevant.I diod not feel safe in that place. The outside doors that entered the house did not lock either

We enjoyed our stay. They owner is very helpful and knowledgeable of things to do an places to see. The property could be a bit cleaner, but we were satisfied with our stay for the price and would definitely stay here again. It is very close to Volcano National Park and about a 30 minute drive to Hilo.

I was warmly greeted and made to feel like home. Leon was very kind and resourceful. He gave me a lot of good travel tips about the island and it’s beaches. I’d definitely stay here again!

Amazing stay, beautiful location, wonderful host.

We loved our stay at the Fern Forest Getaway. The location is beautiful, tucked away in the amazing Fern Forest with lots of space, not far from city activities and surrounded by wonderful sight seeing opportunities. Our Host was very welcoming and helpful with tons of knowledge about the Island history and the best places to visit. Great place for couples getaway or fun with friends and family. I plan to come back next trip. Aloha!

We absolutely loved staying at fern forest. It is a conveniently located to all of the sights we wanted to go see. The owner sat with us and made wonderful suggestions for sights to see and places to eat as well as he had knowledge of the history of the area. Every night the frogs sang us to sleep. The house is an older house located in the rain forest and filled with antiques. We quickly felt like we were staying at a friend's house. We would absolutely stay again!

B&B in the Forest

This is a large house in the forest just below the volcano of the Big Island. Only two bedrooms but several large sectional couches for family member to sleep on. No Cable but many streaming options. Needs a sign on the door with instructions and greeting.

This property is in neglected condition. Filthy carpets, chipped dishes, 1/2 kitchen sink inoperative. Outdated furniture, boarded up hot tub on the deck, disgusting barbecue inoperative. Burned on food on the electric cooktop. Super slow internet access.

Best host in the world. Leon bent over backwards to be helpful, even planning things for us to see on the island. There is a full kitchen and three huge common areas, and both indoor and outdoor dining tables. Our room had its own balcony. It is off the beaten path, rustic, and very quiet, but there is a little grocery store at the end of the road. It would be a great place for a large family, as well as for a couple, like us. It was a great location for exploring the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and the Puna coast.

I would never stay here again.

Well, it started with the host not being aware that we were showing up on the day we had reservations, then we were given someone else's room. You can imagine how uncomfortable it was when they showed up! the bathrooms were not clean, the carpet hasn't seen a vacuum in a very long time and there was a dank smell throughout.
