5 stars all around - we will be back! This is one of my favorite airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in - it was perfect for a couple or a small family. Heather decorated this home so artfully - it feels like a spa. There were so many afternoons basking in the sunny living room, teak details everywhere, and a view of banana, papaya, and mango trees with a backdrop of the ocean. It was so soothing and relaxing. The bed was very comfortable. Luxury towels, beach towels, and snorkel gear are also provided.
Treat yourself to fresh papayas, bananas, and limes grown on the farm. Heather is so generous in letting her guests enjoy that amazing amenity.
I was also impressed by how many kitchen tools she provided, along with an array of ingredients. I love to cook on vacation, and cooking here was such a relaxing experience.
You’re minutes away from two of the best snorkeling locations - two step and kealekua bay. We swam with dolphins and humpback whales- literally the mama and baby humpbacks were less than 15 feet from us while we were in the water! We saw the mama nursing her babe and it was a top five life experience, even for my husband who dives all the time.
Heather is also a masseuse and her massage studio is on the property! Both my husband and I got to experience her wonderful massages.
Like all remote airbnb’s in Hawaii, there are roosters - we’ve stayed in six airbnbs across all the islands and experienced early morning roosters at every one. It’s a small price to pay for the beauty of the home and the location. You’ll want to get up early to get out on the water on calm mornings to swim with dolphins anyway! We brought a portable white noise machine and earplugs for sleeping, and that does the trick! By the middle of our weeklong stay, we grew used to them and were able to sleep through it.
