We enjoyed our time in Pāhoa; it was definitely off the beaten path. When arriving you are met with gorgeous jungle like views and ocean waves. The stars at night were breathtaking and completely indescribable. Plus black sand beaches are within walking distance.
The house itself was accommodating to 13 people but not comfortable. Our opinion was that it could fit 10 comfortably. There were minor things like no door knob on a room door, the dishwasher and smoke detectors were non operational, and some of the windows would not close.
It was definitely a drive to get anywhere. If you are looking for a remote and more secluded residence THIS IS YOUR PLACE!!
