Sandy made us feel right at home right away with some delicious chocolates as a gift! The place was open, airy and the view was absolutely breathtaking! We loved falling asleep listening to the ocean and eating dinner out on the lovely patio! The kitchen was equipped with wonferful kitchen accessories!The bed was super comfy and it was great to watch netflix after a long day of hiking at volcano national park! Sandy's place was in a great location close to lots of little towns as well as being relatively close to hilo and the volcano. We would love to come back and stay here again!
