What a great find! A peaceful and beautiful setting. The room was outstanding -- especially the semiprivate lanai and the comfy Sleep Number bed. We enjoyed bird-watching on the lawn and in the orchard, and eating fresh fruit from the orchard. We only used the common room once, to cook a pizza in the oven, but the kitchen over there is fantastic. Also the available (and free) laundry room was nice. Mahana House was a good jumping off point for things we wanted to do on this side of the island: Volcanoes National Park, Mauna Kea stargazing, a vanilla farm, and just the beautiful drives in the coastal rainforest. Hilo was about a 20 minute drive, but it seemed shorter as we got used to it.
The pillows weren't great -- maybe having a couple more would have helped. And the frogs sang loudly all night, as advertised. No big deal -- we did close the sliding door to reduce the noise a bit. Ear plugs are provided, but we have trouble sleeping with those in. There was no one in the room next to ours, which was good because even conversations or TV noise two rooms down were quite noticeable inside ours. That's an unavoidable consequence of needing to have windows and doors open most of the time for the breezes. Or having to have the TV loud enough to hear over the frogs :) Also, be ready for rain. A LOT of rain. We knew this coming in, so again, not a problem.

We absolutely loved our stay here! The room was very spacious, peaceful, and quiet, while still being an easy drive from Hilo. The hosts were incredibly kind, welcoming, and flexible. We came to the Big Island hoping to catch the volcanic eruption, but the timing kept getting delayed, and they were so understanding and willing to help us coordinate around our changing plans.
The Wi-Fi was also excellent, which made it a great place to work remotely.
But the best part, without a doubt, was the cats. 🥹 Every morning, we’d open the door and be greeted by the sweetest little faces saying good morning, and whenever we came back after a long day out, they would be there to welcome us home. They were all super friendly and somehow made all the travel exhaustion disappear instantly.

We absolutely loved our stay here!
The location is incredibly beautiful and scenic, with stunning ocean views and lush tropical greenery everywhere. At night, the sounds of nature were simply magical, falling asleep to those natural melodies was such a special experience!
The room was spacious, with a very comfortable bed and a large bathroom. Everything we needed was provided, and we felt right at home!
The host was amazing, so kind and welcoming. She let us know as soon as the volcano started erupting, and thanks to her we were able to witness it ourselves. That became one of the most unforgettable moments of our trip!

The facilities and the grounds are amazing. The main house (common area) has everything you need for cooking and even light entertaining. The guest rooms were spacious and made for a very comfortable 5-day stay.
It's about a 20 minute drive to Hilo and a gas station so you need to be prepared to take care of several errands if you head into town.
