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!

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!

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.

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.

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!

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

This property needs a thorough cleaning. Dirt and dust in the corners, dead bugs on the windowsills, the dining table had crumbs and rings on it from previous renters, the furniture was covered in fleece throws that had multiple cigarette burns in them, and the kitchen garbage was sitting bagged on the floor and SMELLED rotten. The refrigerator had a partial package of raw meat in it, and needed to be cleaned. There were black stains on the bathroom ceiling, leakage from the upstairs bath? Or mold? The host said the outside door remains unlocked in case of late arrivals; not very safe if all you can lock is a hollow-core bedroom door.

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.

This place was great. I prefer out of town locations. Peaceful. The frogs singing at night. The troop of Geckos that visit you on the porch. Set out some juice for them and watch them scamper about. Bed was comfy. Best sleep I've had in a while. Mr. Leon is a fantastic host. But I feel like I made a friend instead. All the more reason to visit him again. Water was hot for the shower. Also it's nice to have a laundry facility in case you need it. Extra blankets if you get cold. This is not a hotel. This is a home. You should not expect anything different. Plenty of room to spread out and relax. Which is what one should do when you stay here. I learned a little Russian. I love languages and culture. Mr Leon was a character, and his bnb was character in spades. I will be back. Already planning my return to Hilo. And I will stay here again.

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.

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.

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!

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
6.0
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.

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.

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…

The place was filthy dirty, the host was drunk and wet himself in front of us. No help with baggage coming or going. We did not stay. Left as soon as we possibly could.

Musty moldy smell at first turned into a dead rat I found outside the window of my room, was real bad. When I mentioned to the host he said” bad smell outside , close window”, it was so bad until I found it that it basically ruined my whole stay at this already very bad smelling house to begin with.

This isht hole place need to be removed from all sources. BEWARE! DO NOT GO HERE!

THIS IS NOT A HOTEL! It is someone’s house who rents out bedrooms. Very misleading.
It smelled like a smoker’s house, musty, and of alcohol. The shower was grimy and didn’t drain well and the bedroom carpet was filthy in the corners. Another guest/resident sleeps behind a folding screen in one of the common rooms There is junk laying around in the yard.
I nearly walked right back out but it was very late and I was exhausted.
The good things: the owner was very nice, as was his dog, and there was interesting decor in the house.

Property was unkempt, dirty carpet, clothes hanging in closet in room we were supposed to stay, house smelled very musty, strong disgusting dog odor at entrance, dog blankets that smelled like they weren't washed for weeks. When we arrived owner not around, sat in car honking horn until he finally showed up. He smelled of alcohol and cigarette smoke as if a chain smoker. No breakfast available as advertised, no hot tub as pictured, owner said he hadn't used hot tub in years and was dirty. We are requesting an immediate REFUND!!

Rustic rural area. Large old house and all amenities working well. Highly recommended for those who like to live with nature. Very peaceful with lots of nature sounds and birds singing. Internet is working well. Kitchen is fully stocked. Lots of berries to pick as well.

This was a last minute one night booking that I wasn't sure what to expect, but it turned out to be one of the best life experiences I've had. Jason, if you're reading this you're my new guru. I had so much fun sitting out on the Lanai with you and Drew listening to you two rap about your amazing pasts and music knowledge. Leon was also very interesting and I would have liked to have chatted with him more. Leon was very concerned about making us feel at home in the accommodations and all the museum quality furniture inside just blew my mind. The bed was very comfortable. We will be staying with you again sometime soon for more nights.
