Jim’s old school hospitality falls short of what you get during your stay. Jim makes sure to welcome you personally to the property and give you a tour with back stories of where every single part of the house came from. We even got a tour of the main house during the weekend. We stayed for more thanksgiving week to explore the Hilo side of the big island, everything was within a a reasonable drive: Hilo, volcanoes national park, Mauna Kea, etc. The house itself is ample, fresh, and with a zen vibe. There is wild life roaming around that’s fantastic to observe: wild pigs, hens, roosters and chicks, birds, and a koi fish pond!m that we enjoyed feeding. We did work during the weekdays and the Internet did work as expected, not as fast but working in the living roomier handled two simultaneous video conferences just fine. We will stay here again when we make out way back to the big island.
