This is a great example of off the grid living… It is peaceful and you feel as though you are in the middle of a jungle, because this location actually is. A short walk to the ocean is an added benefit of Joe’s place. If you have never tried living off of the grid, this is a great option for your first experience. There is plenty of room and yet the place still feels cozy.
Joe, Petra, and Brando are amazing hosts… They will take care of anything that could come up and are always available for recommendations or questions about the area. They are friendly and quite knowledgeable about the area. Brando is the sweetest dog, and warms up to you quickly.
The jungle area is amazing and is my favorite part of our two week trip to Hawai’i. The government beach road is just what I imagine when driving around a tropical island.
Joe will do anything to help make your stay more comfortable, from providing ear plugs if needed for the frogs at night, to topping off the coffee supplies as needed. He is a very interesting person, with the most unique stories about his life. Do yourself a favor and spend some time with him and Petra, they’re just great people, and really fit what I would want in a host!
