The house was perfectly prepared for guests. The host had thought of all the little things that people sometimes forget. Home was neat, clean, and comfortable and in a nice quiet street. Convenient location to Volcano National Park and Hilo.

Quiet getaway on the Big Island

The house was in a quiet neighborhood a half mile walk from the Ocean. A clean, comfortable well cared for place. A great location to explore this side of the Island.

This is a wonderful place to stay. The ocean is about a half a mile walk down the road. Hilo is about a 30 minute drive. It was nice to have air condition in each of the bedrooms and of course the living room. The front porch was so nice. We had breakfast on the front porch in the morning and it was wonderful to listen to the birds and the breeze. This is a very cozy house. We stayed three nights on the Hilo side and then went to the Kona side. On the Hilo side we went to Rainbow Falls, Akaka Falls, and took a beautiful nature trail hike on Saddle Road, we went to several beaches closer to Hilo, and then we went to the Volcano National Park on our way over to the Kona side. We had a great stay in this home. And it is very well stocked. Thank you, Jerry.

Exactly as advertised, nice

Located in a neighborhood, away from traffic, among the trees, roosters, and frogs. Very pleasant stay, great laundry room, and large enough for four of us to not get on each other.

Great location in Puna

The cottage was a great home base for our stay on the Hilo side. The park is a beautiful spot for sunset and wave watching. We really appreciated the outdoor shower and extra bathroom with laundry. Pahoa is fairly close for getting supplies. Would recommend.

Very comfortable place to call home. Clean and everything needed

Perfect in every sense of a comfortable place to rest and relax. Be aware when they say tropical it’s in a rainy area of Hawaii. And that’s a good thing.

Absolutely Amazing Place

We found the house to be very clean and very comfortable for the 3 of us. We spent our mornings and evenings on the lanai listening to the sounds of nature. The carport was protecting us from rain when we got in/off the car. The addition of A/C to each room was a big plus. We loved everything about this place and definitely would like to return back in the future :)

Peaceful and perfect

We were incredibly happy with this home. It had everything we needed. Loved having air conditioning. It was clean. Beds were very comfortable. We personally loved tge sounds of the frogs. And we did not have any issues as some stated with roosters but the host has ear plugs in bathroom. We howrver did not need them. Slept wonderful. Will definately stay here again when we come back.

Great Location

We have been to the Pahoa area before and this house is conveniently located close to town, area shopping and restaurants. The setting is decidedly "rainforest" which makes for a very relaxed setting. The front porch is nice for sitting outside either during the day or evening. Jerry the owner is very easy to work with and the house is completely as described. I know some reviews have noted sounds from frogs and chickens. We really had no problem with this and it adds to the charm of the area. We would definitely go back on a future trip.

Honey moon in Pahoa

Thoughtful host. First thing I noticed was the earplugs left on the bathroom counter. At first I was confused but then the birds started singing at night. I didn’t need them since I enjoyed it but it was a nice touch

Hawaii Life

The cottage is located in a residential area and within a jungle like landscape. The frog noise (sounded like a bird chirping) never bothered us. The house is fully airconditioned, so no windows need to be opened. Everything is "as was pictured' and described. Very convenient to a shopping area with a very nice market. Immediate response to our two questions. Property is 35mins from Hilo except during rush hour - it can take an hour. During your stay, make sure you take a drive along the "Military Road", a rainforest along a beautiful coastline. Convenient to visit Volcano National park. Parking is covered and on a concrete slab. Neighborhood is pleasant, quiet and family oriented. This place is a Gem.
