We thoroughly appreciated this peaceful, private home away from home, which far exceeded our expectations. It was spacious, light-filled, had phenomenal ventilation, and was equipped with thoughtful amenities: refrigerator/freezer, hot plate, microwave oven, and coffee maker with all the fixings and snacks to boot. The kindness of the Hosts was so apparent in their lending to guests outstanding Hawaiiana reading material and maps, user-friendly cable TV, flashlight, ice chest, binoculars, beach towels, and dog food. Our outstandingly positive and stress-free stay at this special luxury suite, took the concept of hospitality to a whole new level. We applaud and thank our kind Hosts, and look forward to seeing them again soon!

Jenipher and David were excellent hosts, the room was well equipped and the perfect home base for the two nights we spent in Hilo. Our first night, we arrived home and the sky was so clear we saw the Milky Way. Thank you so much for providing us a home away from home in Hilo.

Loved staying at Jenipher and David's hale. They were very welcoming and place was perfect for our 3 day stay. Not too far from town and it was quiet except for the coqui frogs at night - but you get used to it. I would definitely return. Mahalo!

Very nice room with everything you could need for a visit to Hilo. The hosts were very friendly. We would definitely stay here again

Great location and great hosts! Everything is spotless clean and hosts put in a lot of thoughts to make us feel like home 👍 Their complementary fruits, snacks and hot coca made our day for my daughter. It is close to great restaurants while it's in a quiet neighborhood. Jenni and David took my daughter and her friend to play and feed puppies they are taking care of. They just loved it. If we come back to hilo, we will definitely look up this wonderful place again.
