Nothing feels more like Hawaii than being surrounded by tropical fruit trees, colorful flowers, geckos, and birds. This house is literally in the middle of an orchard, and feels just like a treehouse without any ladders to climb up.
The place was a great jumping off point for more adventures (recommend night-diving with the manta rays in Kona, swimming with wild pods of dolphins at Captain Cook, driving up to see the sunset at Mauna Kea), so we didn't spend as much time relaxing at the house as we could have. Still, the hour I spent every morning looking at the trees and view with a cup of Kona coffee and a book are what I remember when I think about our trip now.
