Iris's place was a perfect fit! To start off we were allowed to check in early which really helped us after over 12 hours of traveling and three flights to reach Hilo. We were exhausted and very grateful to be able to unpack, relax and nap! Iris & her husband were so helpful with planning our adventures and showed they really cared for our Hawaii experience by making sure we had plenty of water and gear for lava viewing! We didn't even think of flashlights and binoculars which were a must! They have everything you could need in this Airbnb especially if you want to cook and eat in like we did. Even from spices for cooking to sandwich bags to pack lunches, this place is fully stocked with anything you could possibly need. (& I'm serious Iris really thought of everything!) I loved how clean and spacious this Airbnb was as well. Lots of Windows to let in the Hawaiian breeze and sunlight. Not to mention the area is absolutely peaceful and stunning! Views around the neighborhood are awesome! A huge bonus was that our best experiences (lava viewing & hanging at the beach with sea turtles!) were absolutely free! I only wish we could have stayed longer! Definitely would stay again!
