The location is great (for us). It’s on the very quiet side of the island, and stocking up on provisions in Kailua is a good idea. The unit provides great access to the Volcano park, local black sand beaches, etc. it’s comfortably set up with washer and dryer, tv, kitchen etc. The unit is a little worn around the edges, but provided us with a good base for day trips to Akaka falls, the Natl. park, local hikes… and we enjoy the bakery in Naalehu! K’au Coffee mill is also worth a visit.
