We had an amazing time at Maria and Steves! Maria met us when we got there and walked us around the beautiful property. She helped us pick papaya which were delicious! The kitchen was already fully stocked but when I mentioned I was going to bake Maria brought over more supplies from their own kitchen! We cooked a lot our own meals and ate on the lanais. Their two off leash dogs were so sweet and loved belly rubs. We were minutes from two beaches which made the towels, snorkeling gear and watershoes they provided come in handy! The location was close to downtown Hilo, next to beaches and close to the roads to volcano national park and the saddle road to Kona. We plan on coming back and staying here! Thank you Maria and Steve and puppies!
