Mara’s place is stunning! We love this side of the Big Island and this cabin was the perfect place to enjoy the luscious vegetation. I absolutely loved falling asleep to the sounds of coqui frogs and waking up to peacocks and roosters- but if you do not, book with caution. Mara’s place has beautiful, full-length windows that give you a virtual 360 degree view of the property. There are no curtains but we felt that they weren’t needed as this place is tucked into the jungle. Again, be aware if you feel that this may affect your stay. The property is totally off grid and we didn’t have any issues at all. Be aware that the water is not good for drinking so plan to buy a jug of water. We went to the local CVS in Pahoa. Our stay was everything we wanted, the shower had cold and hot water (a plus for me because I got chilly! Which is very rare in Hawaii). The shower curtains could use a wash and I wish the the linens and comforter smelled fresh. Overall, a great place, I would book again. Thank you Mara for a great stay and communication!
