Frommer's Highly Recommended

Tucked away in the town of Kilauea, looking out on a tropical landscape is this 650-square foot, one-bedroom apartment in the lower level of a family home. A private entrance looks out on the bamboo and exotic plants and view of the Kilauea River Valley. The large living room, with rattan furniture, has huge windows that bring the outdoor inside, and the comfy bedroom and kitchenette (fridge, two-burner stove, microwave, and everything else you need to cook a meal) make this a very complete accommodation for your stay. Host Conrad Schmidt is a contractor and has made the unit sound proof, so you feel like you have your own private oasis. Complimentary high-speed wireless Internet access, cable TV, and CD. Barbecue and laundry facilities make the price of this retreat a fabulous deal.
