Mark is an excellent host and his home is beautiful, nicely decorated, stocked with many basic amenities (we cooked all of our meals there). The hot tub was wonderful under the cool air and stars at night. Wood burning oven was nice touch and kept us cozy and warm. 5 min drive to volcano crater - we got to see the red glow when we went to the national park one night. I would love to come back for another getaway and would recommend to anyone looking for a stay in Volcano town. 5 gold stars! Mahalo Nui Loa!
