    My family stayed in this home for a month and it exceeded our expectations. The home was everything we expected and more. The house is at the end of a dead end street and is super quiet and private. The home was stocked with everything we needed plus more. Would recommend and would definitely stay here again.

    Plenty of room for the family to spread out, great home base for the Hilo area.

    We absolutely loved our quick stay here. The house was clean and we were able to have our pets with us. It's a great location and is in a very quiet, relaxed neighborhood.

    The property description was accurate regarding the space, but many other aspects were misleading. While the yard was lovely, we encountered issues with the neighbors, who made it clear that they did not want us there. We experienced yelling and felt unsafe, with their dog barking incessantly at our children while they issued threats, such as telling us their dogs would jump the fence at our children who were not instigating anything. Phrases like 'get out' and 'go home' were directed at us multiple times.Additionally, the condition of the property itself was disappointing. The cleanliness was subpar, with dirty furniture that was either broken or worn. When raising the blinds, we found dead bugs—lots of them—on every windowsill, and there was food residue all over the cabinets in the kitchen. One of the beds had a mattress that sagged significantly in the middle, and the bedding was cheap and quite old.Traveling all the way from California with five children on a tight budget, we found ourselves unable to relocate, especially during the holiday season. We are very disappointed with VRBO and Evolve for not adequately vetting or representing this property, leading to a distressing experience overall.

    We especially enjoyed this property because it backs up to the jungle. So many birds and wildlife roamed around. The many fruit trees were also welcomed.

    Relaxing stay for a rainforest retreat. Lots of space; we enjoyed the downstairs with comfortable couch and TV after long days. Appreciated that there were plenty of toiletries and towels. Host also provided water bottles which was a nice touch. Excellent washer/dryer as well. Communication was great.

    The write up for the property is accurate. I really liked the location, it was ideal for getting around and seeing the sites without too much driving. There’s also good food options around Pahoa. The lack of A/C was hard for us just because it makes the inside more humid and attract more pests. There’s also a lot of wildlife singing their songs at night.

    We were a group of six friends vacationing at Big Island, and stayed at Hilo for three nights. The accommodation here was spacious, in a quiet neighbourhood, and midway between Hilo and Volcanoes National Park. The host was very accommodating and got us items that were either missing or had run out. We had a nice stay.

    A group of six of us stayed here for three nights. The property is very spacious with one bedroom at the top level (with a king bed) and two bedrooms on the bottom (with two queen beds) and very comfortable. The neighbourhood is quiet (although the coqui frogs sure were loud), and the location is convenient to both Hilo, and the Volcanoes National Park. The host was very accommodating and got us items that were either missing or had run out. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
