Allan's place was very private, homey & comforting, the place was well furnished and kitchen well equipped. All the needed appliances seemed to be available including coffee maker, electric kettle, toaster, large toaster oven, microwave, regular sized refrigerator and hotplate portable stove. We appreciated the local flora and surroundings surrounding the entrance and living space. Parking was available directly beside entrance. Allan has compiled a binder with info regarding the living space and things to do & eateries in Pahoa & the island which was very helpful.
Location in Pahoa (Leilani Estates) is situated 10 mins from old Pahoa Town, local eateries & supermarket. Distance to Hilo is approx 30 mins and quite convenient as we had the opportunity to check out activities & attractions there. Nearby, within walking distance is a community centre where locals can bring their families & I'm sure guest are welcome too.
