This place is perfect if you are looking for a secluded rustic type of rental. There is no air conditioning, no tv, no hair dryer, and no microwave. It’s set up sorta like a studio in that the living/dining/kitchen/bedroom are really all one room in an L shape. Nice touches like a piece of candy left on the pillow and a few basic necessities to cook with. Comfort wise we struggled with the lack of air conditioning. I missed that key piece in the description so I take fault in that. There are storage closet trainers that have been renovated into bedrooms on the same property which I wasn’t a huge fan of. I felt like we lacked a little privacy.
The house itself is beautifully maintained and the yard is awesome. Much like many places in Hawaii and the attraction of certain bugs in homes due to the beautiful landscape, be prepared for the potential of a few bugs during your stay.
Jacob has the best communication skills of any air bnb host I’ve dealt
With and did a great job describing how to get there. If you are wanting to stay somewhere near Hilo or kona- this is not your place. This is, for lack of better words, in the middle of nowhere. But that’s the charm of it. Grab groceries well before you get there and enjoy the seclusion.
