If you can visit this gem of an oasis -do! We did for my daughter’s 21st birthday & had such a wonderful , fun & restful time! Sure you’ll encounter a small bug occasionally, a frog croaking at night ,your in their territory for goodness sakes 🙃 but more than that you’ll experience majestic sunsets at dinner time, fun walks with your kids to the goats , their pet friendly so our small pup was thrilled to see the goats and even my teenager was all “ look mom goats” 😅. My hubby enjoyed the lanai each night , sipping and reading.. I appreciated the waterfall showers and the open kitchen, stocked with really useful spices! The cookware is chef quality and made each meal easy to cook.. loved the Keurig thank you! Kitchen has all appliances needed, my teen said it made her feel like home! even had liquid stevia of which i’m a fan, each room was well stocked with extra blankets and the absolute more comfy beds and pillows , I work NOC shift so i really appreciated the good night sleep and feeling refreshed & rested when i woke up.. my newlywed daughter and her husband took off each night we were there to go to downtown Hilo 5 mins away for honeymoon time, they enjoyed all the quaint restaurants and taverns of which we all agreed Pesto Cafe was sooooo good!. Just two seconds away is a scenic route where you’ll find several small bridges each going over small creeks and one had a beautiful cave that spouted rushing water. A botanical garden is along the scenic path! I cannot say enough about Hilo Orchard.. you’ll have to see it yourself.. Kurtis was QUICK to get back to me with my questions , in seconds my text were answered..we will definitely be back , we decided this was a new family get away spot! Mahalo Nui Loa to Kurtis and his team for making this Kama’aina family stay-cay( we’re from Oahu) feel like we truly are in paradise! See y’all soon!! AND oh the pics don’t do the house justice! They’re beyond accurate and never had any problems with anything! This is truly my favoriteAIR BNB & we’ve stayed at plenty!
