This place is fantastic! The view from the back porch was amazing. We are from the hot south and were worried about not having AC and it turned out it was absolutely not necessary. The breeze coming through the screen slatted windows was fantastic and listening to the ocean all night was great. There are 3 pools, tennis courts, a beach access (but it's not a sandy beach, it's rocky but my teens said it was fun for snorkeling), and has the most beautiful views! It is a quiet place and we met some neat people. You will have everything you need there. They left us beach towels and we found boogie boards, beach chairs, tennis rackets (we left some tennis balls), board games and books in a couple closets.
It took us about 2hrs to drive to Hilo, abt 2hrs from Volcano NP (active volcano right now, be sure to go at night to see lava), 1.5hrs to get to parking at Green Sands Beach (worth seeing fyi, get there early, like 8am to chance getting beach by yourself). There are tons of beautiful beaches and eating places. We visited 2Step beach for amazing snorkeling and one place we ate at abt 20mins away was called Big Jake's Island BBQ, only open Fri-Sun, and it was DELICIOUS!! This was a great place to be local to most things plus get to relax. We visited the first week of July 2022.
