Natasha and her husband were lovely! Natasha communicated promptly and was helpful! Her husband also gave us suggestions on where to visit on the island. We had a lovely stay. Mahalo to Natasha and her family!
Clean, gorgeous house surrounded by nature, just 30 min drive from Volcano National Park. Wonderful stay: sunrise, stargazing, nature, birds. We loved our stay here! Our kids enjoyed it too!! Thanks !!
We needed a place to stay for the paddling crew, and luckily we found this place. It was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. The area was beautiful and calm.
House was good, Instructions were clear. You will feel close to nature surrounded by crickets and frogs sound at night. Only 30 mins away from National volcanic park. We got to see live volcano eruption which was highlight of our trip. Equipment's were all in good condition. Carry any necessary items with you, since location is remote.
My Daughter and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. The listing was exactly as described if not better in person. Everything that you could need was supplied…it worked out perfectly for us as my sister lives nearby in Hawaiian acres. I would definitely come again thanks for a great stay.

Everything was wonderful during our stay. Good communication, very clean, wonderful location. The water pressure was not great.
Very unique home nestled in the rain forest added to our enjoyment of an authentic Hilo experience. You feel like you’re staying in the middle of the jungle with the sounds of wildlife all around you. As other reviews have said, the sound of frogs and other animals at night can be very loud. We didn’t mind it at all but if you’re a light sleeper you might want to bring ear plugs or a sound machine. The location was halfway between the National Park and Hilo (about 20 to 30 minutes to either) and was perfect for multiple trips to the National Park. We were fortunate to watch the volcano erupt during our night visit to the park which was unforgettable!
Remote quiet house with all the necessities.
Clean, modern and simple
We took the grandkids for a fun week on the big island.
The little ones loved room to roam and explore. Nights were very quiet and restful. The beach chairs and gear were well appreciated. The kichen had everything we needed.
We would look forward to staying again.
Easy 5 stars
When we arrived the instructions were very clear and if we had a question they responded really quickly! I came with 4 friends and everything was clean, there was some chocolates on the table and it was really welcoming :) Also the house is fully equiped with towels, hygene things and the kitchen has a lot of things included such as rice cooker or minioven. The location is perfect, as is a quiet place and not far from anything!!! (just the birds at
night that make the noise hahah)
The whole house was clean and kitchen was equipped with everything you need. The only thing I would suggest would be to get a bigger by the street address sign so you can see it at night when you try finding in the dark. This was one of the best VRBO stays ever. I would strongly recommend.
Wonderful experience at this property. My kids had plenty of space to run around inside/out. Property was very clean, comfortable and spacious. Thank you for having us!
This place is in an excellent location for our purpose of exploring the east side of big island, we like sightseeing here and there, not hours sitting on a beach. the vocano park only took us half a day to explore, glad we didnt stay by the park. Natasha's place is super comfortable and clean. I slept better here than at home, the nightly chorus of frogs and bugs is heavenly to my ears, it didnt affect my sleep at all even though it can be loud.
This was a 1 bedroom, bath, living room and small kitchen. However the space was so roomy and didn't feel small at all. I loved it. Would love to stay there again if there was an opening.
