Lava Lookout was PERFECT. From the large, clean and quiet room with a huge balcony AND hammock overlooking lava to the freshly picked communal fruit bowl in the kitchen and the unbelievable stargazing, we couldn't have hoped for a better, more simple introduction to the Big Island. Be warned, there is a super bumpy/pot-holey road to get there, but it's all part of the taking-it-slow experience and is doable in any size vehicle.
