Our stay at T’s place was seriously amazing. It’s perfectly secluded and had everything we needed. The lanai (outdoor sitting area) is perfect since it is netted, so we didn’t have to deal with bugs when we had meals, worked, or lounged out there. We could make full-blown meals in the kitchen and appreciated that it had compost. Overall, the place was great since it felt connected to outside but with the comforts of inside.
T was SUCH an awesome host. He provided us with beach chairs and snorkeling equipment to use during our stay. He even stayed up until midnight to welcome us and make sure we found the place on our first night! During our week stay, he took the time to give us a farm tour so we got to meet all the animals and pet some of the goats. There are so many interesting varieties of plants that we loved learning about.
Since the place is a little up on the mountain, it got a little chilly at night so we just needed a light jacket for when we got back from our excursions. It’s about a 30 minute drive to town and 45 to the beach which didn’t feel long for us since it’s such a beautiful drive. We bopped to a different beach each day all around the island so it was a great location. Easy to get to the resorts but also visit Hilo and even the Volcanic National Park on the other side of the island.
10/10 would recommend staying here. T is an awesome host and we can’t wait to come back some day in the future!
