Just returned from a three night stay at Scooter's place on the Big Island. We could not have been more happy with our stay. The studio is as described, very clean and well equipped, including items like a cooler and snorkel gear. (Note that there is a microwave and toaster oven, but no stove or range top for full on cooking.) Scooter lives above and maintains an absolutely beautiful garden and grounds that you are free to roam and enjoy. The place is private and Scooter is there when you need him, and not when you just are hanging out on the patio. Like mornings with your provided Kona coffee watching the saffron finches dart around. Check in was a breeze and Scooter has all the information about the Island you need and great recommendations for anything you would want to do. Yes, the local frogs are up all night trying to get lucky, but it didn't bother us at all. Great place and great host in everyway.
