Comfortable accommodations along with immaculate landscaping makes this home away from home one should not pass up. This far exceeded our expectations and is a best value. The hosts Jeff and Jennifer were very attentive to our needs and made sure we weren't wanting of anything. Again great hosts.- you won't regret booking your next stay here!!!

We stayed here a few nights during Hilo side of the trip. Really great property that felt secluded but still close to food and grocery options. The property owners were very friendly and helpful with local recommendations for us. We would stay here again.

Great little place tucked away from the busier Hilo area. Probably a bit better suited for 4 than 5 given the overall size and having to use an air mattress. Owners were nice and let my kids feed the koi, which was exciting for them.

This guest house was the most wonderful and beautiful place I have ever stayed. The peaceful koi pond and fountain were so calming, and the grounds with the beautiful gardens and fruit trees were such a gorgeous backdrop. The pictures don’t do the estate justice. It’s beyond words. Jeff and Jennifer were incredibly kind and thoughtful and very helpful with suggestions of how to make the most of my time on the Big Island. The bed is very comfortable, and the house was so tastefully furnished and decorated. It has everything you could need and more. There is even a ukulele, which I played a few times! When I wasn’t out exploring, I spent most of my time sitting on the porch taking it all in. Truly did not want to leave. Highly recommend. Can’t wait to return!!

Immaculate garden and studio guest house; very clean and comfortable with all immediate necessities; peaceful and secluded; friendly, low key and communicative owners. We had a wonderful two night stay, a perfect place from which to explore the western side of the island. The location is away from town, very relaxing, with stars, stars, stars... We have already told many friends, and will return.

Wonderful paradise setting and the hosts, Jennifer and Jeff do a great job. The room was clean and absolutely beautiful. The property was one you could spend every day just relaxing in the beauty. This is an outstanding rental.

Very nice, large gated property with friendly hosts. Guest house is a large single room with queen bed as described. There are penned-in chickens with roosters that will crow in the morning. At night you'll hear coqui frogs and other typical night life but it's fairly quiet inside with the windows closed. I did have to find and relocate a very loud coqui frog that took up residence in the Y-support for the overhang close to a window. There's no stove but there is a mini microwave, hot plate and large toaster oven. Standard refrigerator had some supplies including milk and peanut butter and various sauces. No AC. Fans only. Good, mostly quiet location to many local points of interest. Storage container outside has some snorkeling gear, beach chairs, umbrellas and water toys. Very nice, personal experience.

Our family of 3 loved our stay at the guesthouse. The house was very clean and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked for cooking. We enjoyed the view from the lanai over the lush property. Our daughter especially loved feeding the koi fish and chasing frogs.

Jennifer and Jeff have a beautiful and peaceful guest house with inviting decor and the property is extremely clean and comfortable. We hiked in Hawaii Volcano NP and the guest house was perfect after tackling the trails. We hope to return to the Big Island and stay here again
