This house was just what my wife and I were looking for - a secluded yet centrally located spot for our base camp on the Big Island. It was surprisingly upscale, with canopy beds for sleeping and reading, a well thought out kitchen (no oven) with all the necessary pots, pans, utensils you could want. Matthew and Rose also made sure there were beach chairs and towels for trips to the beautiful beaches - within a ten minute drive down he hill. We especially like Spencer State Park - with shade trees and restroom facilities steps from the water. Our favorite restaurant for many years on the Big Island is Merriman's and this home is about 10 minutes away from there as well. All in all we can't give this anything but rave reviews. We will definitely try and book this again on our next trip over to Hawaii.
