Our first impression upon entering was a musty smell, but it went away shortly after we turned on the A/C. I assume that’s normal for the island. Everything else was great! We appreciated the well-stocked kitchen with spices/cooking oil which we forgot to buy. We enjoyed the outdoor living space with the propane heater, and we played pool and games available in the cabinet. We didn’t use the hot tub, though it looked clean and functional. Queen mattress was comfortable, but the twin mattresses could be better. The living room furniture and tv set up we so nice after a long day.

We had a great stay! The house was clean and comfortable. Communication was excellent, and the check-in process was smooth. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting.

Great location for visiting the volcano national park. Dont miss the cooper center on sunday morning for good food crafts, thrift shop and. .. only a 3 min walk away. Also spent a relaxing evening in hot tub after hiking in park. All communications with host were promp and friendly.

The location of this place was great. The check-in was easy and the host communicated immediately when I sent a message. She actually called me in person to explain the switches for the fans. The kitchen was very basic. The nonstick fry pan needs replacing. There aren’t very many basic dishes in the kitchen cupboard so if you were more than four people, you might have difficulty. Is really only set up for four.The dishwasher is not screwed into the cupboard and was tricky to get to run. We had some difficulty figuring out how to run the heater that’s in the dining room above the hutch. It was cold in the morning. I’m not sure we ever really figured it out but the days heated up so it was just fine at night. We did not try the washer and dryer which are outside and quite rusty on the outside. Nor did we try the hot tub or use the game room. I’m sure a lot of people would really like that especially if they have children. The bathroom outside shower curtain looked a little mildewed and could stand to either be washed or replaced.While this is not a high-end place, its location can’t be beat. The decor when you walk in the front is quite lovely.I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place as long as you’re not expecting luxury.
