Wonderful experience staying at the Avocado Tree House. We wanted a more authentic experience of the island than a resort could provide and that is exactly what we got. Hugh and Elvira provided everything we needed and (as mentioned by many others) were a wonderful resource for things to explore on the island. Welcoming and very friendly! We were by no means roughing it here, but do be aware that this is, as promised, in the middle of the jungle: limited access to wifi and cell service. This was perfect for us. If you're looking for a place to unplug and experience the beautiful Big Island, like we were, look no further!
