The Rainforest Bungalow was the perfect location for us in Hilo. We looked for a quiet place not too far out of town. The bungalow was equipped with everything we needed. Kitchen, diving masks, snorkels and other utilities for the beach, even a bodyboard. We did not miss anything. In the kitchen there was fresh fruit for welcome. The bungalo has very beautiful furniture and is decorated with individually created items. We felt immediately welcome and enjoyed the cozy atmosphere. Its very open, fresh air comes in all the rooms at every time. And yes, you can hear the coqui frogs in every room at night. But a rainforest is never quiet at night. For us it was relaxing and we slept well even that we used earplugs which were also provided in the bungalow.
Laura was very friendly and offered everyday tips what we can do, including local events in town. She also sent us one of our luggage items which we forgot at the bungalow. One day after we left we had it back, sent via UPS.
So, summarized: the place is great. The hosts are great. Go there! :-)
@Laura: thanks again for everything
