From the moment you pull into the carport and enter this amazing vacation stay, be prepared to exhale and enjoy your time in paradise. This house is beautiful and so comfortable that you'll feel right at home, and the pool, views and privacy create the feeling of being in your own resort. The caretaking team is there at the snap of a finger if you need any help or have questions, and BONUS: the property offers you the chance to try local fruits and nuts, honey made from local bees, and a space to get up close and personal with the flora and fauna that makes Hawaii so beautiful. The location is central to all that is 'must see' up and down the east coast of the Big Island, and a quick trip into Hilo for dinner out or local experiences (hike the breakwater, take a dip at Carlsmith Park, see Akaka or Rainbow Falls). We felt so safe and content here that we really got our 'Island time slow down' on and will have many fond memories because of this as our AirBnB choice for our stay.
