Shannon's place was centralized for all we did in our two day visit in Hilo. She communicated well on arrival/ how to check in. We had the pleasure of meeting the entire family not something we always get to do, because we're traveling so much. Shannon provided great hospitality throughout our stay. We enjoyed the space which was large and roomy. We visited Maunakea visitor information station , Akaka falls which are amazing, rainbow falls which are extremely close to Shannon that we stopped back by on the way to airport in the morning. We also were a 45 minutes drive from Volcanos national park, did all day touring, hiking also a black sand beach with sea turtles!! Eight to be exact. Would stay here again when in Hilo.
