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!

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!

Fern Forest Getaway
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.

Roomy and private. Great location for Volcanoes
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!

10/10 Exceptional

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!

Just stayed for one night at Fern Forest Gateaway due to a short drive to the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Unfortunately the place is untidy and in need of repairs.

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.
Robert, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.

4/10 Fair

Disappointed
The facility did NOT match the website description. No pool or hot tub. Very run down and dirty but lots of cleaning supplies left on multiple surfaces. We found another place to stay.
Theresa, 5-night trip

2/10 Poor

This place is unkempt, dirty and the air in the entire house is thick with mold. After a brief inspection of the dump we hightailed out of there. This place should not be allowed to do business on the Expedia platform. This place is not fit to be a vacation accommodation. Expedia should do a better job to assure quality control so customers are not misled to believe the Fern Forest Getaway is a place to stay.

2/10 Poor

No one on site and no number to call. Place was so remote with nothing around except an old dog and some chickens free roaming. Walked around property looking for someone and reminded us of how the beginning of a horror movie would start
Chris, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The property was a mess. The outside needed some serious maintenance. The inside smelled so bad of mold and mildew and was dirty enough for us to not to even stay there. The photos shown are very old photos, it is no where near as nice as it looks in the photos.
John, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

You will be greeted by a dog sleeping on front porch on a dirty & stinking mattress. Owner doesn't reply to text messages or calls when you need him.

Our stay at Fern Forest
The house is a bit outdated and a little run down, but overall, the accommodations was a decent night stay and relatively close to Volcano National Park. For what we paid for, we were not expecting a Hilton or a HoJos and nor should you. The bed was comfortable, the sheets were clean, we also had use of the entire living room and kitchen—and pleasantly surprised to a light breakfast (coffee, bagels, peanut butter, jam, etc...), which we made in the morning, and ate on the lanai overlooking the lush property, filled with native vegetation and fruit trees. Leon, our host, gave us great tips on what to do at night, and it was totally worth it. Thanks! Note, the location is in a mostly unpaved road off the main highway, we rented an SUV so it was no problem.

From the movie Hostel
Welp, we got played by the bum too. I mean, I WOULD probably pay $20 a night for this place. Guy can’t even refill the soap dispensers and leaves old soap bars from other guests in the shower. Old whiskers errywhere around the sink. Vat is dis, Bratislava?? 😂 Hey at least the incredibly smelly German Shepard “guard dog” actually is very sweet…

Dirty is being kind. It was FILTHY. I slept in my car. Worse place I have ever stayed in my life and I am a seasoned traveler. The Expedia photos do NOT represent any way, shape or form the actual property or location. I have pictures of disgusting toilet & shower (water came out brown), mold, bugs, smelled like dog urine. Common kitchen area was gross. Place so run down we did not even stay our second night. Awful
ANN, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The far drive on back roads was not worth the stay. Amenities were available and fair but cleanliness was on the bottom scale. My daughter had a good time with the dog on site, but it smelled pretty bad at the entry. No a/c and lounge area had all large windows which made it pretty hot in the house. The curtain rode was jenky and fell apart when I opened curtains so had to carefully balance it up again.
Holly, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The property was very close the Volcano national park. However you need Google map to find this place because it is in the middle of forest. You need to drive on a 1 lane gravel road. If you have Google map not to difficult to find it. The house was a big, nice house. However, the kitchen and the common area requires good cleaning. There wasn't any cream or even milk powder for a cup of coffee. When we arrived, the host was very nice and explained all about the house and the neighborhood. Only saw him once after that never saw him. The bed and the bathroom was fine. The bathroom could use more cleaning. Overall it was an ok stay.

Horror in Big Island Hawaii
Beautiful house from the outside. When you approche and you enter is dirty, smelling, old … This house as a big potential, however the cleanness is an option that not available. The bathroom is horrible extremely dirty the floor of the shower was black of dirt and the floor full of dust. The toilet desgusting. Tooth past on the ting. The owner is not looking so friendly. The deco is so old fashioned. The worst place ever.
