If you are looking for an authentic Hawaiian experience this place is for you! It is everything the Host describes as and then more. I stayed here for 2 weeks and loved every second of it. I was seeking peace and seclusion and I found it. The house is beautifully decorated, light and airy. The house has a wonderful south facing breeze. The garden has fresh papaya, and the outdoor tub is so nice that makes for a unique experience. The house is off the grid in a lava field, so do not expect a chain restaurant close by. Highly recommend a 4x4 vehicle, you drive a few miles on dirt/rock roads to get here. Perfect size for single occupant or a couple looking for rest and relaxation. The Host's recommendations are wonderful for local and authentic experiences in the area. Great spots near by such as Kehena beach, Uncle Rober’s (a must for Wednesday evenings and Saturday mornings for the market) Issac Hale beach park just to name a few. About an hour drive to Hilo or Volcano National Park. I cannot say enough about the Kehena house. I had such a great experience and will remember it for a lifetime!!
