We loved our stay at Jim's place as it was a perfect base for us to explore the eastern part of the Big Island. First, Jim was incredibly patient and understanding as our original flights into Kona got canceled and we ended up getting in much later than we had planned. He also gave us the suggestion to explore the recent 2018 lava flows in the area which led us to discover great gems like Kehena Beach, Lava Tree State Park, and hot springs. We spent the second day at the Volcano Nat'l Park and the last day in and around Hilo. The accomodations were spacious and comfortable, esp. for a family of four. The shower was really unique and the scenery was gorgeous to see every morning upon waking up. This is truly a slice of paradise and we were so appreciative of being able to enjoy it!
