Yearly Family Vacation
This property was absolutely perfect for our family. We enjoyed the location: not too far from amenities, but also not in a busy, congested area. Julie and her son were very helpful during our stay, offering suggestions on places to visit and making sure that we had everything we need.We have already recommended this place to several of our friends and when we visit the Big Island again, we will absolutely be staying at the Jungle Home!

Merrie Monarch Birthday Wish
We chose the Jungle House for our Merrie Monarch and birthday celebration. As a party of six, the Jungle House was the perfect spot for out family. Each person had their own bed. The lanai became our favorite gathering place. The property was clean and well organized. We enjoyed playing with the cats, watching roosters and pigs, and listening to the birds and frogs. The owner was quick to answer any questions, and even provided coupons to local places. We had a marvelous stay.

Amazing Tropical Rainforest Retreat.
When I booked this house, I knew it was in the middle of the Hawaiian jungle rainforest and was excited to experience that with my family. I found the driveway and house address easily even though it was raining hard and after dark. When we parked in front of the unit and opened the doors of our rental car, we were overwhelmed by the night jungle sounds. It was a moment my family will not forgot. My 12-year-old daughter and 15-year-old son were visibly nervous and slept in the same room that night with a light on. When we woke in the morning, we were surrounded by an amazing jungle full of life and bright Hawaiian sun. We all fell in love with the place. My daughter asked to sleep in the outdoor veranda. Peeper frogs, morning rooster calls, and a super friendly cat that loves to cuddle. (We named her Tiki). Thank you for the opportunity to stay at your jungle home.

It was very accommodating for me and my friends we had a costume party. It was wonderful, the place was very spacious and had lots of amenities. Privacy was nice and the jungle scenery was a huge relaxing plus. The host was very friendly and communicated very often. I would definitely stay again in this beautiful area.

Host is amazing!!!
Our host was more than helpful and always got back as quickly as possible when contacted. The house was clean. It was great to be able to do laundry. The jungle atmosphere and the sounds at night were amazing! We like to take the road less traveled so we loved the location being far from tourists. We loved getting up and driving local roads and finding hidden gems. I wish I had three hands so I could give the stay and my host three thumbs up!
