This is an amazing property. The house is well equipped and very comfortable. The location is stunning, located at the end of a long private driveway with a long front lawn leading to bluff with water on 3 sides. We had 3 couples and were all very comfortable. Each bedroom is equipped with ceiling fans and large windows. One bedroom is in the separate Ohana unit with a small kitchen. The surf crashing on the rocks below was almost too loud at night. There is no AC but there was a breeze most of the time. The house has a large covered wrap around porch with comfortable furniture including a large dining table where we at all of our meals. The kitchen is nicely equipped and we were able to easily cook dinners.
The location is great. It is on a one lane scenic road 15 minutes north of Hilo and only minutes from the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden which is beautiful.
We really enjoyed Steve's house. It is not only a great place to use as a Hilo base but also a great place to just hang out and enjoy the ocean.
All arrangements with Steve went well. He was very responsive to our questions and his property manager Lester was very helpful.
