We stayed a week at Kalapana and the place was absolutely beautiful. The deck was amazing and the views from there were fantastic. The hosts provide everything you could possibly need including snorkel supplies, umbrellas, cooler, beach chairs, beach towels and water shoes. We snorkeled at the warm pool called Ahalanui and it was fantastic. This is a volcanically heated pool that is just a short and beautiful drive from the home. We also thoroughly enjoyed Wednesday night at Uncle Roberts which was walking distance from there. The feel there and people were fantastic. The food was amazing and you can bring your own alcohol and enjoy the Hawaiian band and many vendors who attend. We loved it. This home and the views from the balcony are a taste of paradise. The hosts have done everything to make sure you feel at home there and we really did. We will be back and refer all our friends there too. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us. Tina
