Noelle's home was quite spacious for our family of five -- one bedroom had a spacious alcove where we could keep our suitcases. The bathroom in the house was large and it was very helpful to have a 2nd modern bathroom outside by the garage. The kitchen was well-furnished and the dining table was very expansive for our family. The owner provided a lot of swimming paraphernalia - masks, snorkels, flippers, water shoes, boogie boards, even a surfboard - for the guests' use and they were much appreciated. The house was a nice base to explore the Volcanoes National park and the beaches at Hilo; we usually stopped in Keaau for take-out. A drive to the black sand beach at Pohoiki shows the destruction of the 2018 eruption. (We had been looking forward to seeing the tidepools at Kapoho Bay but they're gone.) The grounds are lovely and the house feels secluded (though there is another unit in the back). The coqui frogs are really loud at night but you get used to them.
