Steve’s place is truly a gem. I was looking for a place that had enough space for me, my husband, my mom, and my aunt. His property exceeded our expectations—there were so many places to sit, to work, and to lounge. It is beautifully decorated—the light switch covers were my favorite touch, and there were plenty of games, books, and even an instrument (I think) to keep everyone entertained. All the flowers and plants on and around the property were beautiful!
Hopefully you do enough research to know Hilo is the rainy side. We loved hearing the rain and coqui frogs at night. It was a good location since we knew we would mostly be staying on the Hilo side and only making it to the Kona side once or twice.
Steve is so friendly and communicative. His place made our stay on the Big Island all the better!
