Glamping in the Bush
A wonderful, surprisingly elegant and private rainforest retreat: immaculate, well-appointed, and very comfortable for two. We stayed four nights during the Merrie Monarch Festival, driving the 12 miles to Hilo every day.
A rental car is a must.
Surrounded by ohia forest with beautiful ornamental tropical landscaping on the perimeter of the property, the sound of birds and coqui frogs is all one hears. The coquis can be loud at night, but we slept right through them.
There is a fully equipped indoor bathroom, but the outdoor hot-water shower was one of our favorite features.
Connie met us at the property to provide a tour, and very complete instructions and many guidebooks on the Big Island are provided in the house.
Great rainforest experience!
