Better than pictured! We appreciated having a large covered outdoor space to sit outside and eat or play cards while it was raining. The space inside is bigger than it appears in the picture and stayed nice and cool. We used the hot tub often and the outdoor shower in the jungle setting is a nice touch. It was the perfect "home base" for our no kids, just us, anniversary trip. We stayed the first few days on the kona side and then the last week here. We much preferred the privacy and seclusion Marsha's place had to offer.
