Michelle's place is a great spot for exploring south of Hilo, and only about 40 mins from Hilo itself. Michelle and Joe were extremely welcoming and shared lots of tips and advice with us. The outside kitchen/lanai is really nice - though as clearly stated in the description - just for the basics. Perfect for morning coffee or heating up easy things. Bedroom is very comfortable, bathroom was spotless. Fast Wifi - we were able to do some work calls while there. 5 min walk to the rocky shore. Would absolutely stay again!
