We loved our stay with Ted, Pauline and Keo. Our family of four fit comfortably in their large private room. Our kids (4 & 6) loved the bunk beds and the kid-friendly cat and dog. And we all enjoyed the many kitchen table conversations we had with our hosts, whom welcomed us into their home as if we were long lost friends. Keo even shared his Legos and books with our daughters. The location is residential, but put us within a stone's throw of Hilo and the Volcano (and all of Pauline's other local recommendations). We're already planning our return trip.
