The owners/hosts were very hospitable & friendly. It was very clean and welcoming. We really enjoyed the screened in lanai for our morning coffee and afternoon drinks as well as the rest of the day. We had plenty of room with fans in every room for better air flow and enjoyed the peacefulness listening to the birds and other animals while only being 15 minutes from downtown Hilo. They continue to work hard on their organic farm and treated us to many fresh fruits! We hope to return.

Exactly as described. Comfortable. Had everything we needed. Outstanding host. Enjoyed the garden tour and fresh fruits.

My family and I LOVED staying here! Malar and Sam were wonderful hosts--so thoughtful and courteous. The house and property were lovely, but what really made the difference was their sweet hospitality. We loved learning about their story as well--really inspirational. Thanks for making our stay great!

We ahead a lovely stay at the farm. It's for nature lovers : you can hear lots of birds and animals and sea beautiful fruit trees. The hosts are welcoming like no other. We had a very interesting tour of their farm. Our children could also play in the garden with a swing, badminton. Only minor note : master bed could be upgraded (mattress way too soft). Overall a positive experience

This was our first family vacation as a family of 4. We knew we wanted to stay in Hilo to be close to volcano national park/beach etc and away from the tourist crowds in Kona. It was really important to me that my urban babies get a chance to explore nature. It was everything I hoped for and more! Malar and her family were incredibly welcoming, we had a lovely tour of their farm! My girls got to feed their baby goats (huge hit) eat fresh eggs/honey/fruit from the farm. The screened in lanai was our favorite spot and we made beautiful memories just eating breakfast there and counting the lizards we spotted in the trees. Home was clean, and welcoming, the perfect size for us. The kitchen is well stocked so we could cook at home. We will definitely be back, thank you so much for hosting us!

We have really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful place with lush vegetation. Clean and beautiful inside. Wonderful lanai. Thanks again for the farm tour. Was interesting to learn about your experience. Hope we can stay there again!

We enjoyed our stay at this small family farm at the edge of Hilo where the city meets the tropical forest and farm. Malar & Sam and their family are working well with nature to successfully demonstrate their commitment to sustainable agriculture and a tropical island lifestyle. The accommodations and the hospitality were first class with a very modern kitchen fully equipped with a deluxe kitchen range, dishwasher, and a hi tech refrigerator-freezer complete with icemaker capable of producing crushed ice or cubes. The house had two bedrooms (one queen and two twin beds) a front porch and an enclosed screened lanai in the back that puts you right in nature where you will be amazed at the singing of the coqui tree frogs and the birds. There is plenty of dining and sitting space for a family of four either in the kitchen or in the lanai. We were very comfortable here and enjoyed the educational tour provided by Malar of her family farming operation. We would definitely come back and stay again if we are able to get back to Hilo in the future. If you like living in harmony with nature, this is a great place to stay. We also learned a lot about tropical food production. Mahalo!
