My best friend and I visited the Big Island for 10 days and choose Cynthia and Marcus's place based on the remoteness as we didn't want a big city feel. We definitely made the right choice! The pictures don't do the home justice as they don't capture the tranquility and beauty of the home and space. If you're looking for a relaxing stay away from the city that's also conveniently just a drive away, look no further! We were only 20-30 minutes away from central locations and even the drive to the Kona side of the island was reasonable.
In addition to the great stay, Cynthia was beyond amazing in her response time for any questions or concerns we had! From questions about the property to questions about souvenir shops and the like, Cynthia was always extremely responsive and helpful. It was such a relief to have a local so easily accessible as we were getting settled in!
One thing I will note is that there aren't street lights on the main road to the home or the actual road of the home. This was a little shocking our first night as we ended up reaching the house after dark; it was great afterward as it gave us a chance to really appreciate the beauty of the area during the day and night but I wanted to note for those who may not be as comfortable with driving in the (complete) dark. Cynthia made sure to inquire about the time of flight arrival to leave the lights on and gate open if we were arriving after dark.
Overall, definitely a 10 out of 10 experience and we plan on staying at Cynthia and Marcus's again if we journey back to the Big Island!
