Staying at this jungle farm tree-house was truly a once in a lifetime experience! The design and details of the space are so beautifully thought out and designed- who knew being completely off-the-grid (no TV, microwave, computer or consistent cell service) could still feel so luxurious! The washroom was nicer than a lot of hotels even with being physically separated from the living space by an outdoor ramp ‘hallway’ connection. Crystal has truly brought the outside-in and we did too by opening the gorgeous bi-fold doors and instantly expanding the room out into the awe-inspiring vistas of the farm. The local small town of Pahoa was so colourful and we had a great sit-down meal at Kaleo’s and the best take-out at Pahoa’s fresh fish! Another gem was that we were staying only a 10 minute drive away from some of the most spectacular sights on Big Island: the tidal pools (warning- it’s weirdly residential), the lava tree park, and the lava viewing fields where we biked and hiked at dusk to see the glowing mountain of the live lava flow. Truly incredible. Hilo is also a great nearby town to spend a rainy wandering day. Make sure to allocate 2-3 hours to get to Kona / the international airport but the saddle drive past Mauna Kea was worth it. We were so thankful for Andrea’s helpful assistance in making sure we had everything we needed including fresh fruit and goods when we arrived! Even though we did not get to see the famed Milky Way with our stay during the (torrential) rainy season, we wouldn’t have changed a thing. Thanks again! Evelyn and Nick, Toronto Canada
