Honokaa is a welcome change of pace, a slower vibe, lots of history, sunrise over the ocean.
The public swimming pool is free. 15 mjnute drive to Waimea, 10 to Waipio.
The place is comfortable, everything you need is there. For the price you pay it's a very good deal. Mattress is exceptional. I'd sleep again just for that. Shout-out for the books in the lounge too!
