I have to say that this Airbnb was even better than pictured. Quiet and peaceful, surrounded by lush gardens, perched on a mountain side with stunning views of the ocean and sunset. Lovely furnishings and modern. Huge lanai with kitchen and grill. We could have just stayed at the house and been happy with our vacation.
Martina was a terrific host. She greeted us personally, gave us a tour with instructions, and made sure we had everything we needed to hit the ground running with our vacation. We appreciated their recommendations for points of interest, restaurants, and places to shop for supplies.
When you book your stay, you MUST ask them about the nighttime swim with manta rays. Do yourself a favor: skip the commercial tour companies. Martina and James have decades of combined experience and will take you on a small, intimate encounter that is unforgettable.
My family is already discussing our next trip to the Big Island, and there’s no question about where we will stay. Martina and James get my highest recommendation - without hesitation.
