This was our first trip to the Big Island and we were on a tight budget. We needed a place to accommodate traveling with our 17 year old son and give privacy for all. This property allowed us to keep our budget and have privacy. I had read in someone else's review about it being best to arrive in daylight. We weren't able to do that with flight times and it was very intense arriving in the dark and rain. After you know where you're going and have come and gone a time or two the road to the house is fine, but that first time is hard. The house was adequate but a few things to note: the toilet walls are very close to sides of toilet, the shower is comparable to an RV and hot and cold water doesn't mix. It's either scalding hot or freezing cold and fluxes back and forth every 30 seconds. Water is wasted trying to wait for the next 20 seconds of ideal temperature before quickly washing.
The geckos are very friendly and curious but until you warm up to them you might be a bit jumpy.
