We greatly enjoyed our stay at the Hale Kukui orchard. The great pictures still don't do justice to the amazing views. The two-bedroom cottage was basic, but clean, and had everything we needed for our stay. Dan and Paula were friendly and greeted us each morning with a bag of freshly picked lychee (which was delicious). We more or less explored the entire Big Island and Honokaa was a great starting point. Also, if you're looking for places to eat nearby, Grandma's Kitchen in Honokaa had tasty food and an incredibly friendly staff.
