This is a good location at a reasonable price for everything along the Kohala coast, Hawi, Waimea, and also easy access to the Hilo side of the island (saddle road)---including the Volcano! Beautiful beaches are 10-15 minutes from your door..........Windows were open 24/7 and we were comfortable in our room with private bath. It is a quiet location where we listened to the birds and gecko's. We were comfortable in the house with friendly hosts who graciously offered usage of their kitchen and tourist necessities such as coolers and beach chairs!!
