we loved the place. It feels like home. It is much better than the photos. Very clean and welcoming even fresh flowers. Dennis is a great host. we had our privacy even though other people were staying at the property. you will need a car though but that's true for the big Island. it is very close to the airport and shops and restaurants but not walking distance. Dennis is a great host. please read the check in email Dennis sends for a smoother check out what we didn't but we should have. An excellent stay. Highly recommended.
