This place is incredible. You really can see lava flowing in the distance when you lie in bed at night. And the area is great for trips to Volcanoes National Park and exploring around the Hilo side of the island. It's also just a strange and magical area of the island. Very simple accommodations but they worked fine for us. Keep in mind there are no doors or windows or screens so it's a little like camping except for the hot shower.
Jade was responsive during the planning stages and Dani, the caretaker, was great. We had arranged for her to pick us up and drop us off at the airport and she was really responsive and reliable. She also drove us to a grocery store so we could pick up what we needed before heading out of Hilo.
We were originally planning on sharing the house with some friends will little kids but we realized when we were there that it would not have been a good experience for them. Not great places to play and crawl. Lava is sharp! Also we had to spend most of our time at the house under mosquito nets which would have been frustrating for them.
Also we were there on some windy/rainy nights and the metal roof made the rain and the coconut tree slamming against the side of the home quite impossible to sleep. I know that would have been very hard to remedy but I wanted to make a note for fellow light sleepers.
