Wonderful place to stay! The house was clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we could need + a cute little cat who hung on the patio. The backyard was truly magical—very peaceful, lush, and tropical! Good location to enjoy Hilo and nearby attractions like the botanical gardens (highly recommend!) and Volcanoes National Park. Overall, we were grateful for this unique experience, which was the perfect contrast to our big hotel on the other side of the island. Hosts were super friendly and communicative. Tips: If you are someone who is very used to air conditioning, you might be uncomfortable. The fan and windows helped but we were quite warm (in October).
