The house of Ted, Pauline and Keo was one of the best real airbnb's we stayed on our 11-month-trip and we enjoyed the 9 days with them so much before leaving home again. It began with a warmly welcome from Ted and Keo on arrival in the evening, showing us all facilities of their spacious house and giving us lots of advices for the fascinating volcano area. Next morning we met Pauline, a very remarcable, strong women and loving heart of the family. We felt like part of this extraordinary family from the first moment on, nevertheless our privacy was accepted all the time. They were very helpful and concerned about our wellbeing and communication was very easy going, interesting and fun. After 2 nights we got the possibility to move in the biggest of their 3 guestrooms and enjoyed the space we had there very much. Coffee was already prepared every morning by Ted, and it was nice to have breakfast outside on their terrace overlooking the big garden. The house is situated in a silent, natural area and a perfect place to visit the Volcanoes National Park, the lava viewing area, Hilo and the beautiful east cost up to Waipio valley, also the value for money is great. So we highly recommend to stay there when visiting the area. Thank you so much Pauline, Ted and Keo!
