Our family's first trip to Hawaii was wonderful thanks to Chris and his family allowing us to stay in their beautiful home on the Big Island. The location was perfect not too far from most things and just far enough that was very quiet. The view of the ocean can't be beat. All of the amenities of home in such a beautiful setting. I am also an IT guy and appreciate the good internet connection as well. If we come back to the big island we would definitely stay here again. I highly recommend this place for any family looking for a quiet place to stay, 10 days for us was almost not enough. Thanks Chris !
