This is perfect for a family wanting a beach house feel. It is a very earth friendly home. The kitchen is open air and was well stocked with dishes/pans and cooking utensils and the outdoor shower is really nice. Lotus was so thoughtful of our family, very open, friendly and helpful - we had a great time. We had our three young adult children with us and she made up a forth room so that everyone could have their own room. FYI (especially for parents) the neighborhood has a friendly/communal feel and the walkable Kehena beautiful black sand beach is a clothing optional beach. The Isaac Hale state park nearby has warm hot springs and life guards for the beach (although the waves can get rough) and is a short beautiful drive along the coast from Lotus’ place (about 15 minutes). Pahoah has great restaurants (Kaleos) and a volcanos museum dedicated to the 2018 events on the area. Volcano national park was about 50 minutes away.
