Wasn't going to review, but that's not fair to future renters. Positive: location is amazing close to lava and far from big city, secluded and immersed in nature. Al, he's a treasure that likely keeps this rental going still, he was helpful to no end and generous with eggs and fresh fruit, as well as tips and travel advice he really was a blessing. Spacious home we didn't need more than two bedrooms there were only four of us my wife and our two kids. But it was nice for everyone to have their own bathrooms. The night sky is beyond breathtaking. Lava close by is like a another planet.
Negatives: inaccurate description u don't get 5 acres, u get about a half acres of fence in locked gated yard, the kitchen is unusable and is completely infested with termites, the range and oven are gross and the cookware and utensils are not far behind that, spent 350 dollars on groceries on way in from airport and couldn't use anything not from fridge as termites would congregate in the thousands, Termites moved into almost all the rooms of the house. Furniture also had crawlies on them. Had to buy a 40 dollar pan to cook one breakfast in 5 days. Gave Al all the leftover food for a food pantry nearby. Every door in house going ourside is broken and falling apart. POOL is borderline dangerous with all the missing stones exposing sharp concrete edges underneath. Al did his best each day to keep it clean and clear but it needs more frequent and thorough cleaning between guests perhaps.
