We only spent one night here, but it was nice! The location is just off the main road, so it can be very loud with passing cars, but the property is completely and entirely secluded with a view of the ocean and the faint sounds of a stream in the gulch next door. We were also super lucky to have a perfectly clear vending evening with a new moon and the view of the stars from the yard was just 😱😍
The house is very spacious, though we were just 2 and didn't use the loft at all. It was very warm and humid (mid-Sept), and the fans with all windows open helped a little, but not enough. The windows all have screens to prevent bugs, so that helped, but there are still a few big open gaps in places (like between the sliding wood doors across from the kitchen), so there's no hope of avoiding crawlies, though it definitely could have been worse Then again, geckos also get in, so at least they can help manage the population!
Kitchen was stocked, shower was warm, and wifi and roku was available! Plus a lovely large porch with a hammock and BBQ. Also a convenient location, about 40 min south of Waipio Valley and 20 min north of Hilo.
