We loved renting this “jungle house” for the weekend! It was the perfect location in between Hilo, Mauna Kea, Akaka falls, and Kīlauea. The property was very well labeled and documented so figuring out the operations of the house was a breeze. The host was super responsive and the best ever! The fresh fruit trees, avacado tree, tree frog sounds all added to the lore of this home. Highly highly recommend! We stayed with our kids for a long weekend and caught Kīlauea episode #49! Thanks for having us!!

Our family really enjoyed our stay at this property. Loved being surrounded by the beauty of the tropical plants. Enjoyed a cup of coffee on the porch every morning in our pajamas without the neighbors seeing us. Close to the sights we wanted to visit. Volcanoes National park and Hilo attractions. Only thing I would recommend is an additional porch swing. Thank you, would highly recommend.

Erin is amazing and very responsive. The house is well thought out and has everything we need. Amazing home that reminded us of Village back home. Pure rainforest experience with many fruit trees. We enjoyed fresh coconuts and sugarcane.The chickens are very friendly & woke us on time daily :) Had a really good time. Best place to stay if planning to visit Volcano National Park.

Cool cottage style jungle location. Good comms from Erin in checkin/checkout process. Amenities in unit as advertised including bbq, AC and w/d. Place can get quite hot during the day, but just open the doors and ceiling fan and hang out on the deck. Experienced some issues post check in and during our stay which Erin addressed as best as possible, given the circumstances.
