This is a great place to stay if you want to feel like you live on The Big Island. The hosts make you feel like a part of the family. Our boys just loved the dogs and the yard. The house is very comfortable, and we just loved that it has a truly Hawaiian feel. This isn't resort-style, for us, it's better than that, it's ohana-style. We also loved the fact that the house is very sustainable, with self-contained (filtered) water, and solar power.
