"We have stayed at the colony I at sea mountain in pahala twice. We absolutely love this place, the people are veey nice and make you feel at home. I love the privacy and how quite it is. Its also a 5 minute walk to the beach where you can see the green sea trutles."

"needed a good update-repaint, minor repairs, confusing to find place/with reservation-was a recent death of owner so understandable, mahalo for continuing the reservation and the upgrade to a slightly larger place, security was basic-better locks on doors preferred but small town so didn't feel unsafe, laundry availability was much appreciated, basic selection of amenities, about 1/2 hr drive to volcanos park, "

"This entire experience was nothing short of amazing. At first I was apprehensive to live completely off the grid but after staying here I would definitely do it again. When we first arrived the host met us, gave us an entire tour of his property, including his beautiful animals as well as explaining what it’s like to live off grid. Made us feel right at home as if we had been friends a long time. The home was cozy, it does get a little cold so be prepared. The grill and fire pit was a nice touch...

"Beautiful & peaceful location on the big island away from the busier areas. Our host was very welcoming and always made sure we had everything we needed. We really enjoyed falling asleep to the sounds of a crackling fire every night. Large house with everything we needed and a very unique private yard setting."

"Wonderful place. Close to green and black beaches. Convenient to volcano park. Easy access and parking is close to the unit. Great landscape. landscape "

"Nice motifs. Got luckily with clear sky's. Spectacular if you enjoy star gazing. "

"A nice location away from the hustle and bustle of Kona but within reach of Captain Cook and Volcanoe / Hilo areas. We enjoyed our short stay chilling on the deck and exploring the farm with short drives to 2 step snorkelling and coffee farms and cafes. Nice place to return after a long day of exploring. "

"Everything was good. We are not city people so this was right up our alley. David and Wendy were responsive and helpful. The ONLY downside would be if you cannot climb a flight of stairs or cannot handle the frogs (lots of them) “singing” all night. Neither of these things bothered us. We would without a doubt stay here again."
