There are also 2 sun-loungers with side table. Like most homes in the area, we do not have A/C, but all windows have screens to allow airflow through the house. Our location allows for cooler breezes to help keep the home cool. The living room, dining area, and all 4 bedrooms also have ceiling fans and tower fans.

A travel crib, inflatable bed rails, a high chair, step stools, kids' dishes/utensils, games, puzzles, books, and toys are all available upon request. The garden is fully-fenced. Please note: there is a set of stairs that are not blocked by a child gate, so please keep this in mind if your little ones are not comfortable with stairs.

TROPICAL WILDLIFE AND NOISES:
- Hilo's lush rainforest climate provides many great things, however it also means there might be more insects here than you are used to. Screens are provided on all windows and sliding doors, but sometimes insects will make their way inside the home. To make the indoors less inviting to insects, keep all food stored in air-tight containers and keep counters and tables clear of crumbs and dirty dishes. A bug zapper is available for your use if desired.
- The occasional gecko or anole lizard might find its way into the house. These are harmless. Please treat them gently if you choose to move them outside.
- You will likely hear the gentle chirping sounds of coqui frogs at night and birds during the daytime. Hopefully you will find these noises soothing, but we’ll have some ear plugs available in case you need them (or pack your own).
