This was a perfect combination of comfortable and authentic. The house is set in a lovely farming area on a hill with views of the bay. It was fun to relax and walk around the beautifully landscaped area and explore Kaimalu's small commercial flower growing operation in the back. The location on the hill and screened windows allows nice cool breezes to come off the bay, and the provided fans also helped keep the house nice and cool. There were also less bugs around than in other areas of the island, which made this place all the more relaxing. The screened patio was both lovely for enjoying both evening drinks and morning coffee and tea. The bed was very cozy. A short 5 minute drive gets you the bay, where we took a Captain Cook originating glass bottom boat and snorkeling tour that gave us some fantastic insight into the history of Hawaii and the area (I suggest this tour over the more expensive ones that originate in Kona). Very warm and friendly host who clearly loves the property.
