Great place and a great breakfast in the morning. Very talented people own this place and make you feel at home. The place is a bit of an art gallery with custom pieces, local art, and info. Kelly appears to put her heart into making her guests feel welcome, comfortable, and well fed if that is a part of your adventure. Plenty of parking for the amount of people that can stay there.

Location was perfect to avoid Hilo traffic it you frequent to Volcano National Park or Mauna Kea or Kona. Kelly is an amazing host and her breakfast was amazing that personalized vegan/ vegetarian preferences as well. Kitchen was well stocked that guests can use for preparing their own meals. Hot tub is well kept and open till 10 pm.

I can see why Kelly is so highly rated on Airbnb! She has a very organized facility and it is all newly remodeled and in great shape. I would highly recommend using her Airbnb for your stays in Hawaii. Thank you, Kelly for being a wonderful host and for the breakfast.

Checking in had some hiccups, we had to wait half hr for our host to open our bedroom, once we got settled in our room and she was able to set up a second queen bed. We had the master bedroom, it great to have our own bathroom. Bfst was served the next morning and got to meet the rest of the occupants, was very nice.

We had a short and sweet stay at Kelly’s home. The space itself is warm and inviting. The room and bathroom were clean, And the free homemade breakfast is an incredible bonus. Her papaya muffins are simply divine, light, flavorful, and made with love — the perfect way to start each morning in paradise. If you’re visiting Hawaii, don’t think twice. Kelly’s hospitality and attention to detail will make your trip unforgettable!
