This home was a wonderful spot to stay if you like to be off the beaten path and away from the hustle and bustle. It is a private, mostly quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed sitting out on the lanai with our coffee—Iris has a green thumb and the property is full of beautiful plants and decorated in a way that just feels relaxing. It was a good spot to use as a home base while exploring volcano sites and hikes on the Hilo side of the island. Iris and Robert are very flexible and caring hosts. You can see that they love sharing their home and are full of great suggestions for site seeing. I would suggest their spot to anyone planning a trip to the Big Island!
