Space: Lisa's place was everything it appeared to be and more. This pristine and light-filled studio was such a peaceful and happy place to end our stay on the Big Island. I loved looking down from the loft at our toddler happily dancing around below. And he loved the "shower in the rainforest" the best. We appreciated the beach towels as well which came in really handy since we didn't bring our own.
Location: I'm so glad we stayed in Volcano because we were able to go see the crater from the Jagger Museum lookout on multiple nights, which was great because it was so foggy and drizzley the first night we could only see the glow. It was also a central spot between Kohala and Hilo and enabled us to do the Kalapana lava bike (a five mile bike ride on a gravelly road that ends with a view of the lava crashing into the ocean about a mile away) and make it back in a reasonable amount of time.
A few things to note: There are no blinds so you'll wake up with the sun, but this didn't bother us at all. And the loft rail is made of loose wire and of course has no gate, and the heat is a central fireplace, so if you bring a toddler like we did, you'll have to keep a close eye on them. But we had no problems and loved the space so much!
