"Excellent, outstanding, will return. Close to Volcanos secluded in a great way. Beautiful cabin."

"Clear communication, easy to find, great location for Hilo activities as well as Volcanoes National Park. Jeff greeted us and was available for any questions we had.Really felt like home with the amenities, so very comfortable! Coqui frogs sang us to sleep. :) Would love to stay again!!Great hosts!!Mahalo!"

"This was an amazing space to stay in for our visit to the big island! The home was immaculately clean, had everything we needed to be comfortable (including a washer & dryer), and afforded incredible views of the ocean (just steps away). The location is convenient for those based around Hilo and the neighbohood is quiet & walkable. We appreciated Liz's responsive communication prior to arriving and the ease checking in & out. We would definitely see if this home is available for a return trip! Rich & Traci"

"So peaceful. While we wanted to be near some attractions near Hilo, we did not want to stay near a lot of people. We knew of this little community in Keaau and this property did not disappoint! While we were initially nervous about the lack of AC (for medical reasons I typically need it), we ended up having excellent sleep at this home and there were many ceiling fans that helped. The screened in porch was a huge favorite along with the charming garden and exotic fruit trees in the backyard. It could not have been a more peaceful and welcoming home! Would stay again!!"

"The entire property is ideal for a tropical vacation. Not necessarily a Hawaii vacation. It was about 45 min from Kilauea, an hour from a swimmable beach, 5 minutes from Fissure 8 (private property in spots), and 25 min from the ocean. The worst part of the house was Kilauea didn’t erupt! I don’t blame Matt but I think he could’ve done something to help it erupt. All pictures were taken within 45 min of the house. One thing I didn’t take pictures of: the fruit trees! The strawberry guava tree is right in front of the house and they were so good! I ate some every morning for breakfast. Matt has supplies for the house, for the beach, for everything. It’s like going to your family’s house where they know everything to do so they prepare for it vs a hotel. Last but not least…the greatest treasure of the house, Mango!"

"A very unique and wonderful location."

"I enjoyed my stay here. The place is one of a kind and each room is unique. I was reluctant at first because of the shared bathroom, but I never had issues when I needed to use it. There is also an additional bathroom outside that I didn’t read about or see until my last night. The outdoor hot tub and shower were all placed uniquely in the back of the property amongst nature. The location is super remote and takes some patience trying to find, but you stay here for that reason — off the beaten path. The grounds indoors and out were well maintained. The artwork at the entrance and books inside are provocative and edgy which matches the vibe of the place. The kitchen, dining area, living room and patio were spacious enough for those who want to be alone. Locks are provided on every room door for security. There is a house cat that lurked around. Not a fan, an allergic, but that was minor compared to the beauty of the place. Complimentary snacks are provided in the room, however some water in the kitchen for guests would have been good. Highly recommend "

"Very serene and quiet home."
