Chad and Jennifer are wonderful hosts who will go above and beyond to improve your stay on the Big Island. The property is lovely, with ocean views and lush vegetation. A 20 minute drive north from Hilo, the location is in a quiet neighborhood and easy to find. Friendly and well trained outside dogs live on the property. The use of the pool attached to the host's house is easy and right next door.
This is a large and actively maintained property. There are small construction projects still finishing up as well as yard and animal maintenance work that occur during normal working hours on weekdays, some of which produce noise.
I'd recommend this place as a good home base to explore the eastern side of the island. Kona is about 2 hour drive; 1 hour to Volcano NP. Just relaxing on the property is well worth the stay: morning breakfast in the rising sun on the porch, enjoying the pool, and sitting surrounded by the ocean on the point.
