Clean property and easy to find however the kitchen needs a revamp and the overall space could use some changes in furniture. No drawers in bathroom or bedroom even though there is plenty of space and the kitchen had zero pans to use in the provided oven.
The bungalow was quaint and lovely. Loved hearing the doves, frogs, roosters. There were bugs but thatâs expected in this area. No A/C but with the fans and closing the curtains while we were gone during the day it kept the place cooler. They also provide extra fans if needed. The tap water tastes good. The lanai is very nice, the table inside is great too. For a couple or small family who intends to exploreâŠthis is a great place.
We enjoyed a very relaxed stay at the Jungle Bungalow. Delighted in waking up to bird song in the morning and falling asleep to the sweet chirpping of frogs in the evening. Strolls along the calm neighborhood street and taking in the lush vegetation was enjoyed also. We did have to plan on at least a 20 minute drive to Hilo, let alone longer to other sites of interest, yet they always provided beautiful scenic views of the plants and trees abundant with life and gorgeous cloud formations over the mountains and coastline.
This was a wonderful place! We enjoyed our stay. It was easy access to Hilo and Volcanoes National Park. It was new, clean, comfortable and thoughtfully decorated. The washer and dryer were nice. There wasn't an AC, but there were 3 floor fans and it cooled down nicely.
The property is true to listing. The jungle bungalow was a perfect fit for our (couple) 3 night stay. Itâs a great size and beautifully decorated, also very clean, quiet, and private. The location is a bit off the beaten path, but is a solid home base. The unit does not have AC and it got quite warm during the day, but cools enough at night for sleeping. Owner provides a nice little guide book that was really helpful! Bungalow is well equipped with everything you may need. Itâs about 25 minutes from Hilo, which can be a pain during rush hour it becomes more like 35-45 minutes. Regardless, there are tons of things to do in any direction from the bungalow. We would definitely stay again!
Property was very nice. Clean and comfortable. Could have used some more shelves in bathroom and bedroom. Nowhere to put toiletries and clothes. Would have nice to have had an oven safe pan/dish for c use of the oven. And while I realize one x doesn't come to Hawaii to watch television, occasionally when it is pouring rain, or after a long day out, it'd be nice to watch some television on a larger screen. But all that is kind of nit-picking. It was a great rental and I'd be fortunate to return.
Our stay was short but nice at the bungalow. T he property was just as listed on vrbo. Small and quaint, perfect for four people Our only issue was being locked out of the gate on our last day and having to park outside. Communication with the property manager was unsuccessful by phone/text. They did issue a refund which was appreciated but would have rather not been locked out in the first place. We had to drag our luggage in the rain and haul over fence. They assured me communication would be improved for future guests so hope my experience can help.
Very clean. Loved that there was a kitchen. It was everything the add describes. Driveway was a little hard to find at night. Didnât know which cottage was our at first. Maybe some signs would be helpful. Other than that we were more than satisfied with stay.
