We are a family of five with 3 kids under 8. Overall we had a very pleasant stay!
Daryl was friendly and always responded quickly whenever we had a question. The kids enjoyed the little swing set outside and loved visiting with their friendly cat. Because the entire property was fenced, we felt safe about letting the kids run in the spacious yard while we made meals etc. The kitchen was equiped enough for us to make a few meals. The property is very close to the highway so that was convenient (but it is slightly further from the Hilo and Keaau city centers than we thought). There is a rooster in the vicinity that crows at all times of the day and night but it didn't hinder any of us from sleeping. And we're really thankful that all five of us could have a hot shower the same night without it getting cold! Note that while laundry is available, it's $4/load. Check out was super easy (no clean up list). Thank you Daryl for hosting!
