The one we used was a one-bedroom type. I thought the room would have a kitchen, but the only thing in the room was a microwave and refrigerator. We were provided with glasses, but there were no plates or cutlery, so we had to bring our own. Since the kitchen is always available, it turned out to be a very disappointing dinner. Although it is close to the beach, you can't see the ocean from your room, and there are no other views. I felt like there was no point in staying here, even though it's in a relatively remote area away from the city of Hilo. Do you prioritize price? Do you prioritize satisfaction? This is a problem. In particular, I felt that accommodation fees on Hawaii Island were 50% higher than other tourist destinations.

Clean, functional place, peekaboo ocean view from the top porch, very friendly, non-intrusive landlord. His suggestions to visit the nearby coast were the best. The location is somewhat secluded and the waves and nearby tropical forests were stunning. Whales, turtles, tidal pools, all within minutes. People are very friendly in the area. Recommended!

Beautiful clean and comfortable room. Great communication with the manager. We would definitely stay again!

Clean and comfortable setting in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to the lava shoreline and minutes to Pahoa. We loved the natural sounds about including the songs of the chirping frogs at night. Andy was very responsive and provided great recommendations for local sites and restaurants. Highly recommend! Thoughtful touches made this day feel special for us. Look forward to coming back!

Quite clean, nice and quiet, the location a bit far from Hilo but very good if you are interested in volcano tours and visits. The directions were clear and precise difficult to get wrong. We entered late in the evening in the dark.

The room was perfectly fine. We were concerned about not having air conditioning, but it was not an issue! There is a good enough breeze, and there is a fan available. It would have been nice to have a ceiling fan, but it did not bother us too much. This stay is absolutely made by the 5 minute walk to Makuu Point to see the sunrise. The room itself was fine, but the location's proximity to Makuu Point made it amazing! This would be best suited for a short stay, in my opinion, because of the small quarters - but it was perfect for our one-night stay before heading to Volcano National Park. Overall, it was great!

It was a great stay. Host left us a personalize note and some fresh fruit. Just a short walk to the ocean. I loved the sound of the frogs at night and the birds in the morning.

Very clean comfortable stay. As advertised and photos accurate. Enjoyed sunrises from the park mentioned a very short walk from our room. So quiet and beautiful!! Check in instructions were very clear. Had a clean laundry facility that we didn't use, but would be a plus for those seeking laundry options. Close to what we had planned for site seeing, but far enough out to enjoy a quieter atmosphere and the beautiful sunrises.
