Our favorite stay while on the Big Island! We were surrounded by pristine nature and sounds of birds all around.
It’s in between Hilo and VNP, so it’s not in town, if that’s what you’re looking for. We always prefer to stay a little away from the main tourist towns but within an easy drive when we have a car. This place was perfect!
It was spotless and had everything we needed to have easy meals, morning coffee? and to keep things cold in the fridge.
There were bathroom extras, sunblock, beach towels, access to a washer/dryer, in case you forgot to pack it.
If we’d planned better, had more time, and known how awesome it was, we’d have a couple extra nights just to relax in the very private-feeling “apartment” and lanai.
We feel quite lucky for opportunities like this to be able to have a more local experience than the usual lodging.
Thank you to our hosts for sharing their place and being kind, responsive hosts.
