Our family of 13 (ages 12-75) thoroughly enjoyed our stay on this beautiful property! The host Sammy was very communicative and had the house looking like a movie scene when we arrived. The interior is beautifully decorated, and there was even a Christmas tree! The house has good airflow throughout, and there are ceiling and stationary fans to assist when needed. The kitchen is not only gorgeous but very well stocked, and the fresh fruit (and juicer!) were a good touch. The pool and hot tub were welcome amenities, and there were pool supplies and towels provided. The grounds were fun to explore, and my kids enjoyed the horses and friendly cats. We found beautiful black sand beaches not far away but otherwise trips to the National Park, Hilo, Mauna Loa and Kona are a little bit of a drive away. The nearby town of Pahoa has what you need for groceries, restaurants and great food trucks. Would come here again and again!
