Our stay at Denise and Brian's was perfect. Denise and Brian were so warm and welcoming in addition we felt like we had our own personal tour guides. It was a great location for everything around the Hilo area and we were able to travel to the Kona side with ease and a beautiful drive going route 11. We felt like we were in our own oasis at the house a beautiful yard and the symphony at night was amazing with all the sounds from outside while relaxing on the lanai. Everything inside was spotless, beds super comfortable and we had no need to use the AC the fans in the house kept all of us comfortable. Would definitely pick this spot again!
