What an amazing find this was! Scooter did a great job of hosting us. All of his recommendations were excellent; nearby restaurants, hiking, snorkeling, and beautiful white sand beaches that we felt like we had to ourselves. We especially loved the fish at Kona Grill House which is right down the street, and he suggested two snorkeling spots which were the best I've ever seen in Hawaii. Full size fridge and microwave in the kitchenette. No stove, but who wants to cook on vacation anyway :) It's a little off the beaten path, but we actually preferred the location - less than a five minute drive into the town of Kealakekua. Getting to the beach was a quick drive and the property is really beautiful - lots of native trees and flowers all around, with plenty of birds to listen to when we hung out on the patio during the day. Even though he lives above the unit it's especially private - feels like you have the entire house to yourself. Scooter really cares about the island and his guests and we felt the Aloha the entire stay. Thanks Scooter!
