The Explorer’s Bungalow is a great value for anyone wanting to stay close to Volcanoes National Park. Shop around on Airbnb in the Volcano area and you will find it to be so. Thanks to the hosts for offering this private place.
We visit the area annually and have stayed at various places at least one night. We do a few hikes then either have lunch at the park lodge or have dinner at the Ohelo Cafe.
We found the cabin to be very clean with a good sized, well supplied kitchen, refrigerator, a small island with welcoming tropical flowers, and a dining table with four chairs. There is one bedroom and an upper loft. The bed downstairs is a bit soft but heard the upstairs bed is very comfortable. The living area has a fireplace with a TV, two comfortable sofas, and a large crate for a coffee table..
The only negatives were the thin towels, although plentiful, and the heavy smell of Lysol. Just an airing out took care of the problem.
