Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan Sep 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication This is a beautiful, spacious country side property. The kitchen is fully equipped. There is a complete spice rack, olive oil, some coffee, sweetener packets and creamer. Liked the 2 queen beds (one sofa bed) and a king. Most places here have full instead of queen. Bath was well stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Shower floor was non-slip. Hair dryer provided. Our favorite thing was the free petting zoo. Many goats, sheep, ducks, dogs and a cat. They love people and will come up to the fence to greet you upon arrival. These guys are don't smell and they are not noisy. Something else was noisy on the first night. Every 3 seconds, ko-key, ko-key, ko-key! It was loud and seemed to be right outside our bedroom window. We asked the owners, who live next door about it. Raul and Stephanie are so wonderful and kind. Gave us earplugs and said it was a frog. The following nights, the frog could barely be heard far away. This home is very close to attractions like the Boiling Pots and Kaumana Caves. Rainbow Falls and Akaka Falls are nearby. Kilauea is about an hour away. We had the live cam on You Tube running all night on the big TV, waiting for episode 33 of the Kilauea eruption. As soon as it blew, we got in the car at 3:30 am. and drove to Volcano National Park. The drive took less than an hour. For us, witnessing the eruption was a once in a lifetime experience. High recommend this property! ##### Susan Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John B.

It is close enough to all the beaches in Hilo. Raul and his family are very kind and welcoming. ##### John C. Stayed 12 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alison W. Nov 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful, very comfortable, clean, updated space! My family of 3 very much enjoyed the peace and quiet, backyard deck (with amazing view) for eating meals, plenty of space, comfortable beds and clean linens, as well as the beach towels to make our visit effortless-- just what you want on vacation. The instructions were very clear for what to look for when at the home/parking and entering. The host/hostess understand what travelers are hoping for when on vacation-- Very relaxing, comfortable, quiet and peaceful. Location is up the hill from Hilo and removed from the city yet very close to several outdoor attractions, which is exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend--5 stars!! ##### Alison W.

Sep 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### So great we came back twice in 1 vacation!😀 We loved this house! The hosts were great. It was very clean, nice sheets & towels, very modern. Great view of ocean from the deck also. We booked our stay here for the first 3 days of our vacation. We needed more rooms at the end of the week when the rest of the family was arriving so we had to move to a larger 5 bedroom house thats was horrible to say the least. We quickly called this host back and told him we wanted to come back if he still had availability and thank God he did, so we went back for the remainder of our trip and had an amazing stay. . We will be coming back for sure! ##### Ana E.
