This place worked out great for us. Is very close to the lava hike and about 45mins from Hilo. We didn't have enough time to check out the local beach or tide pools so we will have to come back. The kitchen is large and well stocked and the house had plenty of room for our group of 6. We appreciated the towels and thinks the house is stocked with as well. Would recommend to anyone. They were so nice about meeting us for our late check in as well.
