It's hard to describe staying here without using words like "magical", "amazing", and "perfect". The view is magical room and there's a nice breeze that comes through during the night and brings the smell of the lime and avocado trees that surround the house. The sunsets are amazing, and the few times it rained the room just felt cozy. The location is perfect for adventuring, or for being on the beach in 15 minutes. Kona is 15 minutes away. I rented this room for a month as part of an Escape from Life plan, and now all I want is to go back.

Lorelle is a fantastic host. She's joyful, knowledgable, generous, and always friendly. I hadn't been in Hawaii for more than a few minutes before she'd invited me for Thanksgiving Dinner (which was delicious). I really can't say nice enough things about "Mamacita" (better ask before you call her that though).

A few things I would recommend: get a rental car and if you can get something with 4-wheel drive you will have access to fun places, eat sushi every day, get your veggies at the market (I went with Lorelle and I'm sure she can tell you how to get there and when to go), and know that the market near the house is significantly more expensive than in town.

Have a wonderful time, and hug Lorelle for me!
