The place is wonderful.
Location/Check-in: Accurate and easy check in. Eliot walked us through the house and gave instructions. Eliot was reachable easily and was very responsive to messages and calls.
Cleanliness: The house was clean inside and outside. But there are green lizards (Gecko?) inside the house which scared us at first. But Eliot mentioned that they are absolutely fine. Also, there was lot of noise from the frogs in the night and you need to get used to them too. There were a few mosquitoes (2-3) which I killed with hand.
Kitchen has all the things, including a rice cooker, toaster, gas stove, cutlery/utensils. Eliot even got us a peeler when we asked for one.
Even though the property doesn't mention laundry, Eliot was kind enough to offer his laundry machines.
Neighborhood: There were good restaurants nearby in Pahoa town. We tried the Pahoa Fresh Fish and the Mexican restaurant which were amazing. There were 3 beaches to the south/east side which can be covered in a morning. Eliot gave some directions to see the fissure nearby and also the secret hot pond.
The Hilo side of the island rains a lot and be prepared for it.
