My husband and I booked our 6 night stay on the Kona side but wanted to check out Hilo and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park to see the lava at night. We did not want to do the 2-hour trek back to Kona late at night. I looked for an AirBnB for 1 night just to get some sleep and came upon Kristin's place. It was described in the listing as a "Cozy Volcano Room" and that is exactly what it was. We arrived when the sun had already set so it was a bit of unknown terrain, but once we entered (via the red gate) and made our way into the house, it was like home away from home. Kristin's house is extremely clean, organized, has a charming modern farmhouse vibe and was the perfect place to stay. Our room was comfy and the bathroom was amazing. I had the best shower of my entire trip. Kristin also had 2 rain ponchos and headlamps ready to use, which was perfect for our late night visit to the see the lava. We met Kristin upon returning from the park and she was so friendly and great to converse with. She gave us tips on where to get gas and other things to do on the island. I am so glad I found her place and was able to book it the night before our stay - it was definitely meant to be. I would recommend staying here for as many nights as your itinerary allows. I also recommend checking in when the sun is still out so it makes it easier to navigate back to when it is dark. Thank you Kristin for everything and we hope to be back soon. Mahalo and Aloha!
