Rachel’s place is incredible. The lava field in the backyard with the waves of the ocean crashing at the shore alone is worth staying here. It is quiet, peaceful, and feels like a real piece of the big island away from the more touristy locations. The sound of the frogs at night is absolutely incredible. Even though it feels remote, this place is only 15 minutes away from all the restaurants and shops you might need. Very convenient location to explore the east side of the big island. We love it and would definitely come back!
