Great place, marvelous views. While a little farther from Hilo activities and volcano National park, it’s very close to a botanical garden and Akaka falls and is a great place for exploring the east side of the island. The hosts are super nice, they came through with something from their kitchen when we realized we overlooked something in our food shopping, and even shared some fruit from their property. This is a real gem of a place, not a corporate run AirBnB, that is quiet and private and reflects the spirit of a beautiful Hawaiian BnB and would fully recommend it to anyone.
