Delia's Makanella Home is in the perfect location - conveniently close to downtown Hilo and a short scenic drive to the Volcano National Park and the Botanical Gardens.
Delia was sweet enough to draw us out a custom map with great suggestions and even checked up on us after we checked out to let us know there were flash flood warnings! Plus I forgot a ring and she let me know and mailed it back to me (free of charge)! ♥
The terrace has an amazing view of the bay, protected by a much-appreciated screen to keep bugs out while allowing you to hear all of the frogs and birds - which we loved!
We stayed on a resort on the Kona side after but really missed the Airbnb - very highly recommended!
