Near the beautiful black sand beach
Love the location. However the listing states there is a queen pull out bed but there is not. It's a small uncomfortable couch.

Very nice accommodations. Host was very helpful and touched base once during our stay. The black sand beach was amazing. Saw turtles every day. Very peace and quiet. Wish we would have stayed longer than 2 nights.

Quiet relaxing area, black sand beach is pretty cool...

This hotel is very remote with a great beach, hot tub and pool. Do your food shopping before leaving Hilo or Ocean View. We enjoyed it very much, but if you are looking for a lot of shopping or night life, this hotel is not a good match for you.

This property is within walking distance to Punaluu Black Beach. I visited this beach between 6am-7am in the morning and saw sea turtles swimming in the ocean. This is a perfect secluded spot if one wants privacy.
