Bob and Kady were professional from start to departure. They responded to our request to stay very promptly. We were given concise directions to the property. Upon arrival, they met us and showed us around their one bedroom guest house. Everything was clean and orderly. The roughly 500 square foot guest house was bright, comfortable, and inviting. We felt immediately at home. The owners live on the same property in the main house about 30 yards away.

Their place is set on six acres that are almost manicured. A property to be enjoyed, and honestly, envied. The lower end to the east has a creek that runs through the property. They built a small deck to sit and enjoy the privacy, sight and sound of the running creek. If you don't care to wander down to the creek, even though I highly recommend you do, you can always just sit outside on your own personal fenced in patio. If you want to BBQ, they do have a big gas BBQ on the patio.

On the inside there is a living room and kitchen, nothing extravagant but everything is new and boasts an island feel. Heads up, there is no oven/stove in the kitchen. They do have that BBQ on the patio and they also have a single burner induction type cooker. It is very effective.

The bed was queen size bed that was cute and comfortable. The rest of the bedroom was simple, but clean. There were two small tables on each side of the bed each with a small lamp, and a tall chest of drawers for your personal belongings. We felt good about using the drawers, very clean; no dust build up. from there you go into the bathroom.

I have remodeled a few houses here on the islands and a little work on the mainland as well, Bob did a great job building this bathroom. The entire guest house for that matter, but the bathroom stood out. The shower is huge, with a great shower head, but that is not the highlight. The shower floor is made out of colored glass used like tile. You would have to see it to fully appreciate it, but I'm telling you the whole bathroom is great.

Bob and Kady were there for what ever we needed but they were not intrusive. They left us alone to do our thing. They spent time outside working on the yard and doing what home owners do. They did bring us some fresh fruit grown on their property upon arrival, and some fresh eggs from their five chickens they keep on the lower end of the property.

They also have a very loving and energetic dog, Australian Shepard I think, Lilly. Lilly loves to play frisby and greet you in the morning. She is a very well behaved dog.

We will most definitely stay her again when visiting Hilo town on the Big Island.
