Joe’s place was perfect for us. We were looking for peace and quiet and a base to explore the south of the big island. Volcano national park is a 30 minute drive, the green sand beach around 20 minutes and one of the best beaches in Hawaii (black sand beach) just a short stroll down the road where you can see Green Turtles in the water and on the sand. The space is stylish and well equipped. Joe is very friendly and keeps you informed on events/things to do in the area. Would highly recommend to other guests.
