We were initially happy to have accomodation so close to Volcano National Park and decided to book 4 nights here. On our first night, we killed 10 small cockroaches and notified the host immediately. He said these were hatchlings from a previous problem and it had been dealt with a few weeks prior. He implied that cockroaches are a normal part of tropical areas. We stayed 1 night based on this info. Upon return to this airbnb on Day 2. We found more cockroaches and eventually found a fairly large one. We immediately requested a refund of our remaining 3 nights and booked new airbnbs in the area (none of which had pests). We were provided a refund for 2 out of 4 nights and had to get Airbnb get involved. Unless this place is fumigated, we would not recommend anyone else stay here. We spoke to locals who confirmed that even though this is a tropical island, cockroaches are not a usual sighting and certainly not more than 15 in one place. We have also stayed at other airbnbs/accommodations on other Hawaiian islands and have never had any issues with cockroaches. A very stressful experience and ruined part of our trip. Not something you want to deal with while on vacation.
