The view is even more amazing than the pictures show! The location is great to explore that part of the island, the town is cute with a small grocery store, a couple places to eat, etc; the house huge and really pretty. It is perfect for a couple but not great for more than two guests sleeping in the same bed; there are lounging chairs but they are not meant for sleeping and the pull out bed was uncomfortable as a bed. Frogs really are loud. Check in could have been better as cleaning was still going on when we got there at 5 pm (even though check in is at 3) because the previous guests had been allowed to stay until 2:45 pm. Please be mindful of the next guests! If you dont mind the frogs and want to explore the Hilo side, this is a great find!
