From the minute we walked into Bali Temple I felt relaxed. Rachaelle has made a modern living escape in the middle of the lava rainforest of Hawaii. Even though we planned on going to the Volcano National Park we didn't need to because it was already in our front yard! We were able to get up each morning and hike the lava fields and watch the magnificent waves hit the shore line. There is a small secluded black beach that is forming a short walk across the lava field and when the tide is low and the waters calm would be great but we happened to be there during the beginning of the tropical storm, so only for viewing! In the evenings make sure to have a good glass of wine or beer to sit out on her wonderful balcony and star watch because you will be out there for hours!

Rachaelle was always available by text and email for any questions that we might have had and the house was filled with any other amenities that you might need from board games, great books, to bug spray. She also has a "house book" full of recommendations in the area which were great. I recommend going to Uncle Roberts on Wednesday night. So fun and local but make sure you walk from the house because parking is sparse and it is so close.

So don't hesitate any more just book a stay, you won't regret it!
