If you are looking for a secluded get away to use as your base camp to explore this magnificent island this is the place! my husband toddler and I had a very relaxing stay at the tiki house. It is so close to Volcano park and we also took advantage of the proximity to the Black Sands Beach and Green Sands Beach. Tiamaria provides an extensive guests binder filled with tons of areas to explore near by.
Only caution is many of the restaraunts in the area require reservations WAY out in advance. The Thai Thai restaraunt in
Volcano doesn't take reservations but that was all we could find in our short time visiting. Luckily the tiki house has a full kitchen available so grab some groceries in Hilo before heading out.
