Loved staying here! Was very cute and rustic... with just enough comfort so that it wasn't too rustic. It's Hawaii, so you will see the occasional gecko or bug, but I didn't have any big issues here! I stayed here alone and it felt very safe and Angela was super friendly and great about providing me with guidance for visiting the Big Island and the local area. Loved the friendly pets around the property (missed them when I moved to a different location!). The hammock and outdoor fire chimney were wonderful. The area was secluded and took me about an hour to get to most places around Hilo (or more)... but the scenic area made up for it COMPLETELY! Driving down HWY 137 was incredible. It was the most beautiful drive of my entire trip on the island. The house was right on the coast almost, so there were a few beaches a few minutes away - and natural hot baths. The area is very hippie Hawaii which I enjoyed. Angela left me daily fresh eggs from the chickens and fresh fruit from their fruit trees which was amazing! Highly recommend staying here.
