Loved this place and would highly recommend it. The room is very clean and is equipped with small fridge, microwave and Keurig, for your basic needs. This was perfect for me as I spent most of my time exploring the island. The host provides a binder with instructions with wifi info and how to operate electronics, which I thought was very useful. Wifi can be a bit sketchy, but that could be because you’re on an island.
Magic Sands Beach is a short walk away and the host provides beach & snorkeling gear, so you don’t have take or buy your own, including a cart so you don’t have to carry everything. This was very useful during my beach days. The waves at Magic Sands are a bit strong, so be careful.
Shops and restaurants are about a 10 min drive into town.
Driving to Hilo or Volcano National Park is about 2 hour drive.
I would definitely stay here again and will recommended it to friends and family.
