We've been there a couple times, stayed in Kona area and Waikoloa and visited the Volcano area. Still I'm wondering what you think would be the best combo for a 10 day trip split between the Volcano area and the west coast. We're taking a family group and not timesharing. We need at least 4 bedrooms. The family is very interested in the Volcano national park, hiking, etc. Would 4 days by Volcano seem right? Which would you do first? Other ideas/suggestions?
 
We have stayed 3 times in Mauna Lani, in 4+ bedroom houses. Not everyone wanted to VNP so those who did drove over. I just don't think a 10 day trip is enough for a split, but if you chose to I would suggest 7 - 3 West vs East. There are fewer options near Hilo for a four bedroom, so you may have to adjust.
