My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights - the house itself was so great, and in an absolutely perfect location for lava viewing activities; we were about 5 miles away from the start of the hike/bike ride to view the lava flow into the ocean in one direction, and about 8 miles away from the boat launch location for a lava viewing boat ride in the other.
Although the weather didn't cooperate while we were here, we did have 2 awesome lava experiences in the brief rain respites! The rest of the time we lounged in the house in comfort.
Mike was super helpful and answered our many questions with endless patience, and he gave us some great insider tips that we explored (tin shack bakery - yes!)
Definitely recommend staying at this wonderful house in a great location with awesome hosts!
