What a fun and well executed "near off grid" stay. Joe is such a gracious host. Great communication, easy to follow directions to find the property which is tucked away in the lush forest of Pahoa. comfortable bed, well equipped kitchen in this two story separate house. Power is from solar, water is from filter rain catchment so be prudent about use. Wifi was reliable for us. The bathroomwas on the first floor, bedroom on the second. An evening serenade from birds and frog was calming, if a bit loud. We got used to it quickly and there are earplugs if needed. It was a great stay with good advice about local places to eat and sightsee. Joe's place come with a high recommendation from us, judt know in advance you're getting a pleasant off grid experience.
