There are some people you meet in this world that have an incredible warm and welcoming spirit. Jade is one of those people. She emanates kindness and has truly a wonderful presence. After a series of unfortunate events I was stuck at the airport in Hilo with no car. She went out of her way to pick me up and drive me to her home as well as drop me off at various local spots until I got my rental car. She went out of her way to be an outstanding host and her generosity if something I will be in debt to her for.

As for the property, lava temple is the most unique experience of my life. Her home has a magical feel being beautifully decorated, fully stocked and open to the elements. If you want the true Big Island experience and away from tourist traps, this is the place to stay. I have absolutely no complaints and only gratitude for this incredible experience
