We are very glad that we stayed at Chewy's place. It looks just like the beautiful photos but also feels brand new and well stocked with new kitchen supplies, towels, furniture, and local guide books. Chewy gave us some great tips on nearby places to visit and genuinely cared about our trip from start to finish, (or after it finished since we left some items behind!) The property is near the coast, with many sites nearby including a black sand beach and a yoga retreat that also serves meals. It is a bit of a ride from Pahoa town area and about an hour from Hilo, (but nicer!) so bring supplies and explore the coastline and the volcano areas. We would definitely recommend Chewy's place to friends and will try to return again someday.
