This home is a quiet, private, open-feel, gorgeous house tucked intricately into the landscape within walking distance to a winery and Volcano National Park! The host was responsive, and the house was so clean and stunningly gorgeous, with incredible attention to detail in designing the artwork, windows, and views to make us feel like we were in a private location without being remote. We spent our mornings drinking coffee on the private lanai and serenaded by the local pheasants and birds, and we cooked meals in the full kitchen. Having a full size washer and dryer was a really nice addition, as many other places I saw on the island did not provide this amenity so easily on site. The host gave us viewing tips for the volcano when it started erupting, and tons of other amazing sites to see all around the island. Lots of trails all around the house, and ideal location from which to explore Hilo, eastern coastline, and southern coast areas. Highly recommend!!
