This cabin is an ideal spot to kick back and relax, and from which to explore the southern end of the Big Island. The view from the veranda is amazing. It is about a 50 minute drive to Volcano National Park, 90 minutes to Hilo and 80 minutes to Kailua. Closer to home there is Black Sands Beach at Punaluu. If you want to get away from the crowd and enjoy this spectacularly desolate south most point of the USA then this is an ideal base. But do be aware that it is very quiet here. So if you want shops, restaurants, white sandy beaches and crowds then this is not for you.
