Barbara and Michael’s jungle cottage was perfect for me and my girlfriend’s trip to the big island. Looks even better in real life than in the pictures and the price was very fair. The open air dining/kitchen area and outdoor shower are fun and far more authentically Hawaiian than any hotel room. Location/neighborhood might seem somewhat strange to someone who has never been to this part of the big island but it is well situated mid way between attractions in volcano national park and Hilo.
This was our first time using Airbnb and Barbara and Michael set an incredibly high bar as hosts. Not only warm and friendly, they went the extra mile to make our visit a joy.
