We loved staying at Dan & Myra's place! It is so much more beautiful than the pictures made it seem! The view of the stars at night is gorgeous through the telescope, the bed was extremely comfy and big, the bathrooms and kitchen were beautifully renovated, and the BBQ was our best friend. Also, the fireplace kept us nice and warm during the cold nights (the property is at 2400ft elevation).
LOCATION: It's closer to Kona than Hilo but was definitely central to everything and we loved how close we were to the black sand beach nearby, the green sand beach, and South Point. We met a lot of nice locals in the area and also Myra gave us some great recommendations.
AMENITIES & EXTRAS: Definitely browse through The Big Island Revealed book they have on the shelf; it's full of must-do's and must-see's on the island. We loved that it had everything we needed (full garnier shampoo and cond, washer/dryer, beach towels, snorkel equipment, first aid kit, sunscreen, etc).
Overall we'd definitely recommend their home and would love to stay again!
