As previously stated by others, this is pretty out of the way, unless you're going to Volcanos National Park and nowhere else. It's at least 40 minutes to Hilo, 2+ hours to Kailua-Kona. It's nowhere near the water, but the nighttime frogs and morning bird sounds of the jungle are something truly special. (keep your eye out for wild bamboo orchids along the road - beautiful!) The space itself is very basic, maybe a step and a half above tent camping. It is VERY small (hence the name tiny house) and there is NO bathroom privacy (unless you consider a curtain private.) There is barely enough room for two adults to stand in the "living room" together. That being said, it's a great value for the cost, especially as a (young, adventurous, able-bodied) single person or couple. We stayed here in mid-May and nighttime temps were quite cool (no A/C needed!) There is only a small cooler; no fridge, so be mindful about what you buy /leftovers you bring back. The power going out at 11 wasn't a big deal, but when it came back on at 7am, we could not connect to the internet and cell service was poor. (If you have Sprint, just leave your phone at home. You won't be able to use it.) Plan to bring your own towels for the beach and note that due to the humidity, very wet items will not dry overnight or maybe for several days! Not trying to deter anyone from staying here - we used this as a jumping-off point to see the entire island and lay our heads at night and it did just that. Perfect for anyone on a budget!
