An absolutely perfect and magical experience. Hale Iki is gorgeous, private, pristine, and only about a 3 minute walk to all the adorable shops and food spots in little downtown Hawi. The space itself is beautifully appointed and spotlessly clean and has everything you would need (including beach towels and chairs!) all while sitting on a rolling green hill with the ocean in the distance. You can see the Pacific from bed :) The lovely host, Christine, was on the mainland during our stay but was easily reachable (though we didn't need to) and her wonderful friend, Brad, was on the property and made sure we were settled and comfortable. The perfect alternative to the resort experience in a more remote part of the island and we would gladly stay here any time we visit the Big Island. Truly amazing!
