The house is beautiful, very clean, comfortable, and exactly as described, with endless, sweeping views of the lava rocks and ocean. We loved eating dinner on the back porch at sunset and listening to the crashing waves. We were disappointed not to spot any whales or dolphins...until our last night, when an enormous humpback put on a show right in the backyard.
It's a good base to explore this whole section of the Island -- 30 mins to Hilo, 20 mins to Pahoa/shopping centers, and about 45 mins to Volcano (we went twice during our 5 day stay). It's the jungle, so there are a lot of rules/procedures to prevent bug entry--but on the whole we had no problems, save a few ants here and there. All the amenities you could need or want (fast internet, fully stocked kitchen, bbq, washer/dryer, closets full of beach gear and towels).
