Colette and Miles are superior hosts, we saw both on our visit. Both were very helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Communication was fantastic. The cottage is as described, very private and rural setting. The Hamakua coast offers many adventures and we used it to venture as far as the green sand beach on the south side of the island. The Waipio Valley is illusive and not easy to get to, although possible. All the way down the coast offers many beautiful areas! Thanks Colette for your hospitality and gracious accommodations!
