Came over from O'ahu for a short trip to go birding for my partner's birthday. Jean's place is super clean, quiet, and loaded with everything extra you need! We spent every day hiking and birding and coming home to such a quiet and peaceful place was wonderful; a nice change from the noisy O'ahu atmosphere. The bird activity (parrots, cockatiels, java sparrows, & doves) around the house during the day was awesome and the coqui frogs at night were actually peaceful to me. Loved all the extras like slippers and robes - made me feel like I was truly on vacation. The water feature just outside was super nice white noise for sleeping. The welcome basket was amazing and we ate almost all the treats Jean left for us! The place is only about 5 minutes from downtown Hilo and super close to Saddle Road to access some good birding areas. Great place to stay and hope to visit again!
