This cliff house is perfect for a quiet get away from it all. We used it as our home base for exploring the Hilo side of the Big Island. We were gone most of the day, so the lack of AC was not an issue. The breeze off the ocean and the big fans provided were sufficient for the evening hours. We so loved using the grill and having a nice dinner on the deck after being out all day seeing the sights. The view is spectacular, especially for sunrise!
