"This house was a wonderful place to stay. There was no air-conditioning in this place but it was not needed. The wind coming off the sea was sufficient to cool the house and sometimes at night it was cold. The sounds of the waves crashing against the cliffs was the best "white noise" to fall asleep or read your favorite book. The place is stocked with the tools you need to cook with. The neighbors are quiet and friendly. The place is conveniently located close to the Volcano National Park so you can vist the Volcano. We did get to see the eruption during our stay. Several hiking trails beaches located near by. Kona is about two hours away but is worth the drive for the beautiful scenery. Mauna Loa is beautiful. The owners are very nice and are easy to reach if you have questions. Don't feed the chickens! Lol"

"We felt so much at home that we forgot that we had to leave. Never have i felt so stress free that i lost track of the days & time. Woke up this morning & realized that my trip to heaven on earth was over."

"Spacious, clean, furnished "home" located in quiet area. Host very responsive to inquiries and requests. Fully furnished with sports equipment. Property full of fauna that produces fruit (albeit we were there at low season) One drawback - house is located some time from Hilo (depending on traffic) so plan your excurstions accordingly"

"Amazing views turtles and whales galore. "

"clean and friendly. Great breakfast. Host went above and beyond to accommodate us!! Thank you Kelly! "

"This property is as described. The hosts and her husband were helpful when we checked in making sure we were able to enter (even though we already had been given a code). Melanie was patient with my many questions prior to arrival. The property is kind of off the beat and path, but only about 45 minutes to an hour from Volcano National Park and was a good spot to explore Hilo and Rainbow Falls and Apoka Falls and the Tropical Botanical Gardens. It isn't a fancy place, if that's what you are looking for, this isn't it. It is comfortable and being in the rain forest is unique. The screened porch is a nice place to hang out. The bathroom is tiny, but functional. Some complained about the frogs croaking at night and keeping them up. The frogs did not bother us, but the rooster woke us up. It was just a fun and different experience and a GREAT value for the money. I would recommend this place. "
