This property is absolutely magical and we can not wait to book again. We originally chose this location because we loved the beauty and privacy of the cottage with Lanai and kitchen and it did not disappoint! We were obsessed with visiting the beautiful garden picking herbs/veggies, making our own roasted macadamia nuts, retrieving fresh eggs from the chicken coop and feeding the goat, duck (on the porch), cats and dogs. ;). It was so magical to star gaze at night, wake up to morning rainbows and watch humpback whales everyday from the deck. We went to the local fresh fish market to enjoy the catch of the day such as prawns, ahi, Kampachi, Uku and to the local butcher to get dry aged beef to grill. The Ranch is perfectly located to go to the Kilauea Crater, Stunning Gardens/Waterfalls, Beach Hikes, Snorkeling, Whale Watching and much more! We also were able to pet donkeys, horses, cows, sheep and had friendly dogs, cats & ducks visit us on the porch everyday. Additionally Christie and Josh were very responsive to all of our questions, provided amazing recommendations and tips, even letting us borrow some warm clothes when needed...they just went above and beyond for us. We now consider them friends. This place is a dream come true and I cannot recommend it highly enough!
