Great location, feels like it is in a triangular location between Pahoa and Keaau, so you’re minutes in either direction from restaurants, supermarkets, etc. Fruit stand just down the street. 20-30 mins to Hilo. Good, centralized location (1-2 hours) to other sites as well, including the volcano, green sand beach, etc.
Almost need a car to get around in this part of the island.
We liked the “glamping”, open-air vibe; bamboo walls. We could hear the little tree frogs- coquis- chirping all night (we liked this, though it’s apparently a nuisance on the island). Little lizards seen often. Kitchenette well stocked.
“Hot tub” somewhat misleading; has time constraints. We were unable to use the pool.
Great place for resting up and open-air breakfast while traveling! Glad we chose this way of staying for our trip!
