Magical is right! This place is absolutely amazing. Suzie and Scott were very welcoming, with a perfect blend of being available and giving us privacy. They were there for anything we needed, including the day we were leaving for the airport and our car keys got taken by an ocean wave! They immediately offered to drive us to the airport and do anything they could to help. They really helped us stay in the Aloha spirit.

The nearby town of Pahoa was so cute, and we enjoyed several delicious meals there. There was a health food market that sold terrific coffee beans, groceries, and the best fresh liliquoi juice on the planet! The place was central to Hilo, the volcano park, many local farmer's markets, and a pleasant drive to Kona and many other island sites.

The compound, as we like to call it, was such a special place to stay. It had so many cute touches, and the birds and frogs sang us to sleep at night. Between the hot tub, the outdoor barbeque and sitting area, the comfortable beds, and the well stocked kitchen, we were in our very own private paradise. It was hard to leave to see the sites! I couldn't recommend this place more!!! Don't miss out on this once in a lifetime experience.
