We loved this place! Couldn't be more convenient to Volcanoes National Park, also is walkable to a few local shops and restaurants. The house is very comfortable and nestled in the lush trees and vegetation - breezy, cool, and wonderful for sleeping after a long day of exploring the park or elsewhere.
The house has lots of character and charm, including a chest full of toys and children's books which kept our 3-year-old daughter very busy! Also, secluded and safely off the main road so she was able to poke around outside without any worries.
Todd was very helpful and stopped by shortly after we arrived to introduce himself, provide some local tips, and otherwise make us feel welcome. He lives a couple houses away and was easily available when I needed to run over to grab extra beach towels for a day in Puna.
