This is the perfect location to chill out. The birds singing in the morning and throughout the day with the coqui frogs taking over at sundown; it was a beautiful symphony! We arrived around 6 in the evening and the hot tub was a pleasant way to end a long day of travelling.
The location is perfect for exploring Volcano National Park and we appreciated the eco friendly details: reminders we were on solar power, using filtered rain water and the towel warmer was a nice touch when things in the rainforest tend to stay a bit damp. We dried towels and swim suits on it. We drink coffee every morning and that was provided by our host, along with some other treats.
We stopped in Kona for provisions at Costco but BE WARNED the fridge here is just a small one. Like a dorm/ Convenient fridge. Example Our Costco taco tray, caeser salad, and one other deli item barely fit. And when we had it all organized, we came back the next morning to find the items that touched the back wall of the fridge were frozen! Ruining the salad. If you are a coffee drinker who takes creamer, our half and half fit in the door of this small fridge. We thought we were being wise because the food options (especially past 6pm in Volcano) are very limited and we are later in the evening diners. There was delicious fresh veggies and fruits at the Hilo Farmers market- but again, note that this place does not have a stove either.
This location does not have mosquitos, but there is a small “noseeum” that does bite and we made sure to have the front door closed so that they could not continue to come in and bite us in our sleep. The downstairs windows have screens- but the higher loft windows do not have them.

The wifi mostly worked but had spotty outages that were brief and seemed to be cured by logging off and back onto the wifi.
The beds were comfy and the place was very clean. Our stay was quite and well enjoyed.
