We had a great stay. Excellent view and pounding waves from the ocean. The surrounding is very green and picturesque. Note that the flip side is the remote location as Liv already mentioned in the listing. Be prepared to 40 minutes’ drive into the Hilo town area where most attractions are. The summer early evenings can get very humid and hot without AC. It cools down well into early morning. Overall it was a nice 4 days we stayed at Liv’s house.
