Volcano Hawaii Travel Tips from Aloha Juncton

Before you Arrive:  Rental cars may be in short supply at the Kona Airport.  Be sure to call in advance to reserve a rental car and avoid any delays getting on the road. 

Upon Arrival:  Most flights to Hawaii's Big Island arrive in Kona.  The drive to Volcano from Kona takes about 2 hours via Saddle Road. The Volcano Village is an isolated town where the stores and restaurants are only open until about 9:00 PM.  If your flight lands in the late afternoon or evening, we suggest that you stop for dinner before your drive to Volcano and stop at a grocery store along the way to get any essentials needed for your first night in Volcano Village.  There is a Costco close to the Kona Airport for the best prices and selection.

Security:  Hawaii is a fabulous place to visit, but like many tourist destinations, security is a concern.  Be sure that your personal belongings are secure and out of sight in your parked car. Always lock your car.

Early Check-in: As a guest of Aloha Junction Guesthouse, you can take advantage of our free luggage dropoff (if you arrive before check-in time on the day of your stay) and then head out for a worry-free day of adventure in Volcano Hawaii on the Big Island.  If you prefer to check in early (no earlier than 1:00 PM) and have booked directly on our bbvolcano.com website, you can order early check-in or late check-out for an additional fee (subject to availability).
