Roxanne's beach house was the perfect retreat for our stay over Christmas and New Year's break. The home was so cute, with all the personal touches (including a Christmas tree!) that made it a home away from home. She left a sweet fresh papaya and some delicious local coffee for us to try, as well as beach gear, towels, laundry detergent, brand new appliances, cooking gear... everything needed for a week-long stay. The coqui frogs were actually not loud during our stay - each night was very peaceful. The walk down Beach Dr. down to the sea cliffs is highly recommended! We even saw some Nene geese! Perfect location to go to Hilo town, or to Volcano. We were also lucky to meet Roxanne briefly, as well as Barry and Angel :-). We unfortunately had to leave one day early but hope to return again soon. Thank you so much Roxanne, and Happy New Year!
