Pua's place is in a great location just a few miles outside of Hilo, making it a good home base for various types of adventures. We really enjoyed the peacefulness of Pua's place, and particularly liked spending time on the balcony overlooking the backyard with its banana and other trees. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a nice meal. We appreciated the maps and books that Pua has at her place to peruse, and truly enjoyed the conversations we had with her.
