This house was beautiful and peaceful. Everything is as pictured, and Myra was great communicating with throughout our stay. The house was stocked with everything we could want, from cooking materials (pots and pans and spices, etc.) to beach gear, to info on good places to visit on the island. The proximity to Volcanoes Natl Park (about 45 min) made it possible to visit the volcano after it started erupting, and before it stopped again. Folks who had to drive from Kona weren't so lucky. My family had a great time and recommend this house to everyone!

Our stay was wonderful and quite. The ohana property is now solar, so that was important to us and happy he decided to commit to sustainability of Hawaii's resources. We missed out on the whirlpool open, which was one of the reasons for our stay, but priced reasonably for our needs and still very pleased.

Rooms are very clean. Atmosphere was great! Lisa was very patient and waited for us very late night for checkin.

The room was clean and it is basically like a big tent. It was raining and windy the two nights we were there and it was really loud with the sound of rain hitting the cover and material flapping in the wind. Everything inside felt damp including the sofa. The yurts are built on a rural residential area and there is nothing within walking distance. There is a very very distant view of the ocean if you stand on the property in the right spot. There is no running water inside the Yurt. It has a microwave, fridge, coffee maker, toaster and cooking utensils but no sink. The bathroom and shower is in a separate building a short walk away. The drive from the Yurt to the Volcano National park is an hour and 10 mins away. The advertisement says it is an 8 min drive. The internet wasn't working but it was not a big deal and we purchased a roaming package instead. We are used to camping and roughing it a bit but this yurt fell short of our expectations.

We spent the week with our school group and had an amazing time. The property was immaculate and well-provisioned. There was a variety of activities to keep the kids entertained. We will definitely be returning again soon!

I'm going to be extremely honest. There were things I wanted to let slide but decided shouldn't.Upon arrival we were greeted by Jen who was so drunk she could barely stand couldn't remember where she put our key or how to let us in the house. There was stuff that should have been done but wasn't, the fridge wasn't started and towels were just left in a garbage bag and bottles from drinking were scattered about. In addition to the stove being propane the fridge is also run by propane and because it hadn't been started previously we had to learn how to start it, with some help from Jen. It turned off several times during our stay, even without the propane running out. The tanks used to run all the things are just 20lb tanks like you'd use for a gas grill rather than big ones that should be used to run a house. Only 4 solar panels to run entire house and warnings about electricity usage. We didn't run out, but we did make sure to conserve. Water is not potable. At first we thought this was what offgrid living in HI is like but we stayed in another offgrid home in HI and it was nothing like this. ona storm hit while we were there. The owner should have been responsible and told us the house was not able to handle the storm and had us leave on Thursday before the storm hit. Instead we found out on our own how ill equipped the house was. There was a leak in the ceiling, dripped onto the bed 1st day. Then the rain poured through windows and puddled and dripped throughout home.
