This was a fantastic place to stay! We were a group of 5 adults and found the home spacious, clean, and well stocked. The location was close to Hilo yet it felt like you were in your own private tropical oasis in the backyard. Our group took advantage of a lot of the amenities of the home such as the well appointed kitchen, grill, pool, washer, and dryer - all were fully functional and of a high quality. There are AC units in each of the bedrooms and on the first floor and we used those in the evening to keep the moderate humidity at bay. That said, there are numerous ceiling fans throughout the house and they keep the home cool as well. This home is close to numerous great places to explore (definitely check out the Botanical Gardens and the Hilo Farmers Market, to name but a few). Sharla was very welcoming and responsive to any messages that I sent her. Overall, our group really enjoyed our time in this home. Mahalo!
