The property is open, airy and light, and the variety and abundance of plant and animal wildlife in the grounds is amazing. Ray and the farmers were friendly and happy to chat.
We particularly enjoyed the hot tub / pavillion; lovely to spend evenings listening to the animal / bird noises and enjoying the stunning views over Kona and the nearby coastline.
From a practical perspective, the garage has a huge washing machine and dryer which was very useful! There is a box of snorkeling equipment available for guest use which is ideal as there are some good snorkeling spots around the west coast.
We used earplugs to sleep initially, as the noise of the frogs, crickets, etc is loud as expected, and we had the windows open to stay cool; but it is a very relaxing sound and we were completely used to it by the end of the week.
Overall, absolutely fab stay and would recommend this property to anyone that is looking for a spacious and relaxing property to chill out in and use as a base for exploring Big Island!
