This is a great oasis in the middle of the jungle with an incredible ambiance. Very quiet with just jungle sounds and nature all around you. The house is spacious and comfortable, and the bedroom absolutely lovely. We felt right at home and were very comfortable, and Joe is a great host sharing lots of information, fruits and vegetables- as well as his knowledge about everything local. This is the perfect spot to relax, go for walks, and use as the starting point for excursions to Volcanoes, beaches, Pāhoa, and Hilo.
