It's hard to know where to start in my praise. Hawi is still a bit of old Hawaii.
The Kohala winds blow and keep the area cooler than many other places along the west coast of the Big Island. Ohia Hale is such a peaceful place, "Ohana" family land. Chiya is welcoming and gracious. The accommodations are lovely with beautiful woodwork and simplicity of design. We felt so at home. A perfect place to alight in Hawaii, welcomed and taken in, made to feel like friends......and left with the desire to BE friends.
