Most “touristy” stuff is on the other side or north of the island since the volcano national park was closed, but we seemed to spend an almost equal amount of days on each side. The red and orange glow from the volcano at night was amazing! Valerie went above and beyond to take care of a plumbing issue that came up. Comfortable house overall. There is no A/C but it was not really a problem since we were gone all day and only at the house to sleep. At night the breeze and fans were sufficient.
