This is a super special place! Far enough out there where you feel completely surrounded by nature, but also close enough to town for all the typical amenities. Very comfortable for cooking, chilling, and sleeping. The road getting there is also spectacular - the tree lined streets Puna is famous for!
The whole structure is screened in as noted, so you do hear all the natural sounds of the birds, frogs, rain, etc, but I found it very comforting. Also no wi-fi and limited reception (T-Mobile here) but I drove a few minutes down the road towards the ocean for reliable reception.
Amalia and Kyle were great hosts and lovely to talk to. Very cool to see them create this space / life that relies on the land - from solar power to rain catchment and farming a lot of their own food.
