Khym’s house is private, beautiful and clean. There are more amenities than you would possibly need, including kitchen supplies and spices , beach supplies , extra blankets etc. The house is close to all the major attractions on the east side as well as groceries and restaurants in Hilo. We visited Volcanoes NP, beaches in Hilo, Akaka, rainbow and Peepee falls , as well as drove all the way to Mauna Kea visitor center to see the sunset. The stay was very peaceful . Khym and Josh were very quick to respond to any questions. We had an issue with the TV and Josh immediately came over and resolved it. There are detailed instructions on how to use the amenities. Personally we love staying in homes where the owners live nearby since it really helps in case of issues. Having Khym and Josh right in the next property( on the other side of the fence) was a huge source of comfort , but they gave us complete privacy during the whole stay. If you are in the east side of the island , we would definitely recommend Khym and Josh’s house. For reference, we were a family of four - two adults, a tween and a teen .
