If you want a unique experience, this is it. The house is open air, meaning the windows are screened but that's it, so you are in nature, similar to camping. There are geckos but they are cute and harmless. No TV, but wifi is there so you're not totally disconnected. House is fully stocked, more than any place I've ever stayed - kitchen, bathroom, everything you need. Great kitchen and living space, plus a spacious balcony off that stretches halfway around the house. The outdoor shower is fantastic, and almost unlimited hot water. You could stand out there all day if you wanted. Also a bathtub inside if the shower isn't for you. Hosts were very quick to respond to any questions or concerns, and Connie met me onsite upon arrival to walk me through the place. It's a quiet and secluded area, as you only hear the occasional passing vehicle. Located 10 minutes to either Pahoa or Keauu, and 20 minutes to Hilo (as long as traffic is good). Less than an hour to Volcanoes National Park as well. Highly recommended.
