We had a wonderful visit to the Big Island. We received very timely and helpful recommendations from the host which helped us to plan our stay and not to go home starving after a very long day! :) Even though the house is a bit out of the way we really enjoyed the quietness and "living like a local". It's very convenient to enjoy the coast. We especially enjoyed the local market at the end of Rd 130 as well as the black sand beach!
