We had a wonderful stay at Jordan's when visiting the Hilo area. Jordon & his family were great hosts and were quick to respond. The house is new, clean, and comfortable. The room was spacious for a family of four.
Most of all this is a great location in the Hilo area as it is conveniently located about 20 miles from Rainbow Falls, Kuman Caves & about 30 miles from the Akaka falls & Volcano National park - the popular attraction in the area when you want to beat the tourists coming from Kona.
However, these were the real gems. We enjoyed the 2.5-mile hike through the forest & lava rocks to a secluded bay, shipman beach where we saw a lot of turtles & fish - the kids were able to play and enjoy the shallow clear blue water. About 1 mile away [drive or hike] you will be able to visit the beautiful Paradise cliff and watch the waves crashing on the cliffs while walking along the lava rocks. There is a scenic drive that takes you to a beautiful bay ( Onomea) and botanical gardens
