This is a very classy studio apartment located in a tree lined nook of one of the most peaceful places I have been to, in the Volcano village. Its a short drive to the National Park and the huffing-n-puffing of The Earth. There are good restaurants close by, and a gorgeous highway to take you all over the island.
The kitchen is well-appointed, the bed is comfortable, and the shower area is brilliant. The place is full of elegant small touches (fresh fruits, flowers, rustic covered parking, curtain of bamboo branches for shower area, wifi credentials on a tiny chalkboard, etc.) and functional amenities for the place (such as umbrellas, ponchos, flashlight, etc.). Please be advised that this apartment doesn't have cable/TV ...since the real show is live outside. Although our stay wasn't for long, folks coming in for longer stays may find a washer/dryer useful.
Finally, one cannot ask for hosts as attentive and kind as Melissa & Dan.
We were there during the recent activities on Kilauea's rift zone, and Melissa's texts and emails kept us constantly updated during our flight, drive and stay. Another reason to stay here is to meet Charlie, who's very keen on saying hi at a fence while standing on his hind legs.
