A true gem of a place in the middle of paradise. Perfect sized for our family of 4, with the adults in the master (with a walkout to the lanai for morning coffee or nightly sunsets) with the kids (11 and 9) feeling like they had their own space too. During the week we wound up making fresh lemonade (twice!) after picking lemons off the property. The aloe plant out front came in handy for quick fixes on minor sunburns. Ryan invited us to take a fresh batch of apple bananas he had just cut down. He was also quick to answer any question but also we felt like we were in our own peaceful space on the island. We also enjoyed the “mini adventure” side of encounters with roosters and the entry ride up the bumpy hill (4-wheel drive helps; by the end of the week we felt like pros). The separated bath house allowed each of us to get cleaned up after a day at the beach, almost as if we were camping.
If we are blessed to come back to the Big Island again, I cannot imagine we would want to stay anywhere else!
