We stayed in the big part of the house for 3 night, it includes 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathroom, big kitchen, living room and lots of amenities.
Overall we loved our stay and definitely recommend it for big families. Though in our case, it was only me and my wife but we still loved the place.
This house has a studio cottage as well, good for two people. Patio was shared between us, other guests and Mila (greeter for this house) but we hardly saw any one of them using it, so no issues here as well.
Mila was helpful and gave us a few home grown fruits as well.
Pros
- Big house
- Good stay for a big family or even for someone who wants to enjoy 3 bedroom house during their stay
- lots of good things to do near by including lava falling in ocean (near county view park), Kahena black sand beach, hot tide pool etc
- helpful hosts, quite place away from hustle and bustle of the city
Cons (not really cons but things you should know)
- you don't get the whole house, you get a big part of it which is private except patio
- patio is common for a studio cottage and Mila's room but I never saw anyone using it.
- 30-40 mins drive from Hilo
I think overall, it's a great place for a peaceful stay.
