We didn't meet Liz in person but she did email us LOTS of info about things to do in the area, including good places to eat and who to talk to about current lava flows. The jungle hut itself was great (and clean) - looks just like in the pictures. It does now have a stove (with a propane tank), though we didn't end up doing any cooking. The jungle sound at night is amazing, but mosquitoes do get in through the screen door and they are relentless (we ended up turning AC on instead). Take a drive to the end of Makuu st as well where you can get to the coast and watch the ocean. It is breathtaking. Overall I'd say this is a great location if you want a cottage-y vacay that is relaxed and away from everything. We were mostly in and out because we wanted to see what the island had to offer.
