Malia greeted me at the entrance, even though I was arriving later in the evening. It's a wonderful setting amidst green lushness and the clean accommodations are more spacious than comes across in the photos. It was very comfortable and clean with nice touches and details that give it a homey feel. The Keaukaha coastline just across the way is so beautiful, and the location is very quick and convenient to Hilo without being right in Hilo town.
