Staying at Kaeo and Karl's place was a amazing experience. If you're looking to 'get away from it all' in an exotic rain forest setting while still being close to all the attractions of Hilo, Volcano etc. this is the ideal choice. While the accommodation is relatively small it has everything you could need and more. On top of that, there's the little treats that appear now and then (cookies, chocolates, drinks etc.) even though there's a great selection of food waiting for you when you arrive. While Kaeo provides all of the privacy you could want, she also works in the background to ensure your stay is perfect (taking towels away to dry and responding to requests immediately). A couple of tips; the chirping frogs are all part of being in the rain forest but you might want to bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper and make sure to check out the night sky while you're there, the number of stars you can see is breathtaking!
