What a great experience!
We had plenty of space at Guy and Trey’s beautiful home, they were so welcoming and made us feel like family.
The kitchen was stocked with any appliances or gadgets we needed to cook our own meals and even had some fresh fruits from their fruit trees.
This was the last stop on our trip and falling asleep to the Koki frogs must’ve helped me get the best sleep I’ve had on my vacation. The smart TV is large and easy to use and the internet speed was fast enough for several devices streaming simultaneously. The restaurant and activity recommendations were fabulous.
There is so much to see nearby (great beach for surfing, botanical gardens, close to downtown Hilo), the home is in a great location.
Trey helped us know where to rent snorkel gear and showed us a great snorkel spot where we saw 17 sea turtles sunbathing(!!) as well as many tropical fish and eels.
We rented their CRV which was perfect for getting to Volcano National Park and up the mountain for the most incredible view of the stars.
It was so nice having local hosts who were a message away with recommendations, cooking spray, or anything else we needed. They gave us our space but fortunately we took advantage of the opportunity to get to know them over ice cream cake and decadent lotus-shaped mango sticky rice.
You will love the greenery and quaintness of the area and won’t regret your visit or especially your stay with Guy and Trey. If you’re looking to feel the aloha spirit, this is the place.
