Susan and Andre's house was just as pictured. It was very quiet and in a lovely neighbourhood. My family and I only booked for one night but once we got there, we wished we would have been able to stay longer. The house had everything we needed, towels, fully equipped kitchen, laundry facility and lots of space for the 6 of us. We didn't get to meet our hosts but they were very responsive with messages and phone calls.

The location is fairly isolated but not too far from grocery and convenient stores. It's a short drive (by Big Island standards, 45 mins) to Volcano National Park and there are nearby parks/surf spots to enjoy the beautiful volcanic beach scenary. We took the Kalapana-Kapoho Rd back into Hilo and it was absolutely a gorgeous drive.

If you're looking for a tranquil place to spend your time on the Big Island, we recommend this place! :-)
