This place was exactly what we needed... a quite, beautiful, Hilo sanctuary. The mornings were beautiful with light rains and a beautiful tropical setting. It is close to Hilo and access to groceries and dining. We found amazing gems in the Hilo area including the farmers markets on Saturdays, Manapua from a house in Hilo and other amazing spots very close. Tami checked up on us to make sure we had everything we needed although we are pretty low maintenance. Tami is an awesome host... Highly recommend.
