Amazing Rainforest stay
Peaceful, tranquil, amazing find at a wonderful price. Guests have access to the main part of the house with a living and dining room, but can choose to stay in their rooms since each has a private entrance. There was a beautiful backyard tropical garden with a few fruit trees and chickens that can be enjoyed sitting on the back wrap around porch. So quiet during the day! At night, enjoy the eery but lovely sound of coqui frogs and gorgeous views of the starry night sky. Be prepared with warm layers and rain gear as it gets cold in the evenings and there's mist or rain nearly every day--it is a rainforest. Also beware the earthquakes! Volcano apparently has them frequently, and they feel kind of like the wind is shaking the house. However they don't last long, and added to the sense of excitement and mystery of the stay. 5 minute drive to Volcanoes national park, 40 minutes to Walmart, Target, and cheap gas in Hilo. Access other areas in about 2 hour drives to the north east coast or west coast. Can't wait to stay again!
