While we did not meet Kristin, I feel like I met her because she was so incredibly communicative with us.
We stayed in three airbnbs on our week long trip, and this was the best in terms of convenience and ease of parking and walking to the room.
It is also the only place where we felt the most secluded. There is not a peep from anyone, no view of anyone. Completely lush and quiet and romantic.
A personal note of welcome, little chocolates, a fridge stocked with breads and bagels and jellies and creamer... There were assorted coffees and teas. There was a basket of things others left like suntan lotion and ponchos. In the bathroom, shampoo and conditioner.
It's a cozy room, and all the windows make it feel spacious.
We visited in the beginning of April, and it was in the 50s at night, so we definitely needed extra blankets. You may want to consider having an extra throw or two with you; we used the extra comfy blanket provided in the room as well as our two fleece blankets from the plane. You will need extra blankets at night...Or pajamas. :)
The Volcano Village and park are super close, although there is slim pickings in the village. Try to get supplies in a bigger town and make your sandwiches at the house.
