We couldn’t have asked for a better experience or host, especially during quarantine. Dusty went above and beyond to give us an amazing vacation experience. He was there for us from the moment we booked, making sure that all of our needs were accommodated. When you book through airbnb you typically lose the aspect of hospitality, but Dusty made our experience a special one, and catered to us as his guests. The home is brand new, and looks even better in person. The pictures don’t do it justice! The views are beautiful, and you have everything you need for cooking as well. It is easy to feel at home, as everything you need is provided. We enjoyed sitting on the patio and feeling the ocean breezes or picking up coconuts that had fallen in the backyard. There are plenty of games for a nice evening in, and the rain shower is amazing. We never expected to have the kind of experience we did, because we had to quarantine, but because of him, our time at his home was fantastic. He gave us our privacy, but was very engaged when we wanted him to be, sharing his experiences and knowledge of the island. On our first day off of quarantine, he even took us sightseeing through Hilo. He also gave us great tips for the rest of our time here. Dusty made us feel like we were true friends with his hospitality, and if we ever return to the Big Island, we plan to stay with him again!
