Linda's place is beautiful! It is a rural property settled into the rainforest with some amazing tropical plants and trees complete with visiting roosters, hens and feral pigs. We loved the location for exploring Hilo, the northeast coast, southeast coast, the Saddle area and Volcanoes. We looked forward to getting back "home" each day after exploring the Island and relaxing on the porch with some nice beverages. The house is well furnished with a complete kitchen and some nice amenities around the house. We used the washer and dryer for a small load of clothes and the outside 2nd bathroom came in handy too.
