Beautiful property, 20 min outside Hilo. Great stay for hiking, volcanoes, and waterfall adventure. Easy to find with beautiful surroundings.
Surrounding the property there are chickens, barking dogs, and a nearby house with lots of children, unsure of privacy at times. Outdoor shower is attached to the bedroom. Shower is small and not super easily accessible with a low shower head, if you’re over 6 feet you should stretch before you shower.
If you’re cooking, prepare to bring all kitchen stuff. There were lots of ants in the kitchen. You may have some furry friends come say hi, several different dogs wondered on to the property.
Although there were some inconveniences, the bath was probably the best amenity. Big windows facing the other side of the property (certainly private). Mornings and evenings were cool but during the day the property gets really hot. There are lots of fans but past 9 am you’ll be sweating. Hilo is also just more humid than Kona. We had to call the property manager a few times and she was very responsive and willing to help us right away.
