nice place. great to have an alternative to the overpriced resorts on that end of the island.
pros:
1. save money and avoid the resorts.
2. best beaches on Big Island are only 10 to 15 minutes drive away. Hapuna beach 10 minutes.
3. beach items available for use like boogie boards, beach chairs and umbrella.
4. very nice hosts! Matt was very responsive to text requesting a couple of extra towels. gave us a tour of the place.
5. grocery store about 10 minutes drive away.
6. nice laundry area (limited hours on this but nice to have available)
7. nice private outdoor shower so you don't have to track in the sand from the beach.
8. can see the stars!
Cons:
have to drive everywhere, too far to walk to town comfortably.

Tips: download movies or shows if you want to watch movies etc. If you have kids need to take toys or games for them not a lot for them to do at house other than play in yard.
download movies if you want to watch them, can't stream on their internet but can check email etc just can't stream.
be sure to bring your own toiletries such as shampoo or body soap as it not provided. hosts do provide laundry detergent and dish soap, hand soap.
