About the host

Hosted by Guy Berryessa

Host profile image
We're a two dad family with two beautiful daughters who used to spend our summers on Hawaii and now we live here full-time & love it!

Why they chose this property

We wanted a well-built home, in a very quiet, neighborhood (on a private dead end street) with gorgeous yard and lots of wood and space, that we could share with family and friends from around the world, as well as occasional guests who would like to enjoy our little slice of paradise! We loved the location and setting--a perfect balance of quiet, lush surroundings, yet a beautiful short drive to town.

What makes this property unique

It has an amazing yard on a tropical rainforest, sauna & new hot tub, gorgeous rural location on a roaring stream and waterfalls, yet very close to Hilo and its conveniences. That we can bike or walk to beaches is a plus as well!
