I enjoyed my stay there very much. Riaan and Lisa were away, so their Mom was the host. She was very helpful and gave good advice as to what I should see. I enjoyed talking with her. The place was spotless. It is in a rural area away from the city, which I especially enjoyed. You do need a car to stay there. A restaurant where they gave me more than I could possibly eat is only a few miles away, as is a grocery store. It’s an easy drive, about 30-35 minutes, from Kilauea Volcano, which was my main reason for staying there. To go to Hilo and the surrounding area is also an easy drive. I love dogs, and their dogs were friendly and gentle, and an added, unexpected pleasure. This was my first trip and my first stop at any place in the state of Hawaii, and I’m glad I stayed there. The place is accurately advertised, and I would highly recommend it.
