What a great little gem!
Of course I'm talking about both Louisa, and the Bali Hut. :)

Louisa's warm aloha welcomed us from the moment we arrived. After passing by the hand-painted mailbox and walked through the garden accented with turquoise pottery, we knew we were in a special place that had been curated with island love.

Literally off the grid and a world away from touristy Hawai'i, the Bali Hut is truly a unique taste of island living. The hut offered us the chance to unplug from our fast paced lives and reconnect to nature. Falling asleep to the sounds of the evening rains and the serenade of frogs was lovely, as was the refreshing outdoor shower. Louisa offered us the opportunity to access the wifi many times, but we opted to keep it simple. The hut is screened and there is also a bug net, but bring insect repellent if you are especially tasty to bugs.

The Bali hut is rustic, yet beautiful. It is relatively remote but not too far (20 min) from the nearby town of Pahoa for groceries and restaurants. There is a small market and cafe that is closer for some basics. (5 min)

Louisa gave us some great recommendations for snorkeling, local music events and dining, all of which were great! If you are staying on a Wednesday night, a visit to Uncle Robert's Farmers Market is a must! Louisa is a lovely, fun-spirited lady, full of spunk and was always available if we needed her, but she also gave us our complete privacy.

The location is great to explore the Puna area, as well as Hilo, although it is a little bit longer of a drive in (50 min). It's also not to far from a visit to Volcano Park (1:15 min), but we tend drive a bit faster than the locals. (We are from the mainland, so... you know) ;)

Mahalo Lousia!!!
