Having business in the Waimea area, a colleague and I stayed at Hale Kohola for three nights while making customer calls. I know I won't do justice in this review because my expectations were so greatly exceeded by the location and quality of Arieh's home! Everything was fantastic! The home was very comfortable and was equipped with everything we needed and so much more! The place would be perfect for a family or group of friends visiting the Big Island, and also served perfectly to wind down at the end of several days of the work. Communication with Arieh before and during our stay was always great and never imposing. I have every intention of staying here again on future trips!
