We had such an amazing time during our stay at Jessica’s place! The home is spacious, clean, and in such a wonderful location. It’s in a quiet, safe neighborhood surrounded by a lot of greenery - which gives it a unique jungle vibe! This is the perfect place to stay at if you’re going with a group of people, as it is large enough for everyone to have their own privacy.
At night, you can also hear the enchanting Coqui frog symphony - takes some getting used to but by the second night it’s the same as listening to a sleep app that plays white noise.
The home is located within walking distance (5 mins) to Kahena Black Sand Beach. The sunrise here is absolutely stunning! It’s listed as a clothing optional beach but don’t let this deter you from checking it out, everyone was wearing beach attire both times we went. I also recommend hanging out in the patio at night for some beautiful star gazing and meteor showers.
The location is about an hour and a half away from Hilo and from waterfall attractions. I would definitely plan a future stay here for myself and my family.
