This cabin is very neat, tidy and modern. The appliances are state-of-the-art. The rooms feel comfy and spacious.
Michelle and Axel have been impressively responsive. Whenever we needed something (e.g. once, we locked ourselves out of the bathroom), they were down at the cabin within minutes. Once the washer/drier wasn't working, and they instead did our laundry for us, and we found it washed, dried and folded on the kitchen table!
They offered a plethora of advice about local activities, destinations and food options. We had many pleasant chats about their experience of living on Hawaii.
The wildlife around the cabin is amazing. Geckos will venture onto the balconies. You get lulled to sleep by coquís. Chickens running around. From the many windows you can watch the cows. Kids will have fun feeding fruit scraps to the goats.
The drive up from Hilo is quick and through pleasant scenery, and the car can be parked right in front of the cabin.
