I really wish we had more time to stay here: We only spent 2 nights but really wish I had spent longer. The hosts are just lovely people - our son played with their children and we talked for quite a while both days we were there. The house is large with a big, comfy bed in the bedroom and great AC in that room. Our son slept out in the main room on the fold out couch and he loved it - it was a little warmer but still just fine temperature-wise, even for our over-air-conditioned Texas sensibilities. The house was stocked with everything we needed and shower and laundry worked great. Ever since our son was born, I've become a light sleeper but it really was pleasant to fall asleep to the coqui frogs and the falling rain. You really do get a slice of life of being in a rain forest with all the plants and animals on the property and it's really secluded and charming, up to and including the goofy chickens that a number of other reviews mention.
The location is good for east side activities. It's about 45 minutes to Volcano National Park and we went twice - once to see the park during the day and the other to see the lava at night (FYI: we got there around 6:20 and got one of the last spots for the night until they started opening up at 9pm as people were leaving). It's less than that to Hilo and a few minutes more to Akaka Falls. For food, we had a lot better luck in Pahoa than Keaau. Oh, and it's like 2 minutes to the shore, though we didn't spend any time there except to drive there and take a quick look - again, we really wish we had more time here. This was such an amazing and relaxing stay: it's a great location and a great experience at a great price.
