We greatly enjoyed our experience at the Bali Hut! Louisa was a wonderful host and offered great suggestions for things to do in Pahoa including a Halloween party being held up the road at Kalani in addition to suggestions on where to eat in Pahoa and Hilo.

The property details were as described and the area is even more beautiful than the pictures capture. It rained a significant portion of the time we were there, but it was never a problem within the hut. The additional exterior screens provided protection from the rain. The songs of the frogs and toads combined with the sound of the rain was a beautiful lullaby for slumber. The mosquitoes were a bit of nuisance (as to be expected in such a lush area), but bug spray definitely helped. The outdoor shower was a new experience for us and it was very nice. Although it is a secluded area, the shower isn't completely enclosed by foliage and may not be for everyone who isn't comfortable being in the nude outdoors. Wireless internet was offered to us, but we declined as we really enjoyed feeling free from technology and peaceful with nature. We loved the eco-friendliness of the property. Louisa uses only solar electricity and catches her own rain water.

We really enjoyed our time at the Bali Hut and would recommend it to anyone who is looking to live in harmony with nature. Mahalo Louisa!
