My dad and I stayed at LavaLookout with Matt as our host for five days before going to other parts of the Big Island. This was by far the highlight of our trip. Matt was an amazing host with tons of interesting stories. He was always easy to reach and very helpful. He also makes a great Moscow Mule! LavaLookout is built on a lava flow and offers the best view we’ve experienced in Hawaii. It’s a very sustainable set-up running on rainwater and solar energy. Matt knows the area well and had great suggestions - our favorite was hiking across the LavaLookout lava flow! Overall would 110% recommend this place. The location was amazing and Matt was the perfect host.
