We loved the house- there was so much room and extra space. I wish they would up the amount of people allowed to stay because there is plenty of space to fill! The house itself provides that traditional Hawaiian style twist. The fruit plants and trees- SO yummy! Turkeys? Yes please!
The location was amazing- a very quick- back road drive to our favorite beach- hapuna.
The beach that was somewhat walkable (15 minute walk) was pretty rocky but a beautiful spot (not somewhere I would lounge for the day though).
The puako store just a minute or less drive down has a surprisingly diverse selection of goods!
The only con I would say would be the lack of beach equipment. they say they have all the beach stuff- but no cooler and no boogie boards (though someone gave us some and we left them there to add to the collection).
We go to big island every year and have stayed in a variety of different locations- when someone says beach gear- I expect all the goodies 😉
