We had a phenomenal time and we'll never forget it. Chris and Karla's place was perfect for our family of four (including a 3 year old and a 2 month old). Chris very graciously picked us up from the airport despite flight delays. We were greeted in the house with pineapple, chocolate covered macadamia nuts, and local coffee. There were even fresh flowers.

The hardwood floors were polished, the linens were fresh, the kitchen was fully stocked, there were plenty of towels for the bath and pool. There are ceiling fans in almost every room (including the bathroom) and there is great cross-breeze ventilation when you open the windows such that you rarely need the fans. They were super child-friendly (baby lotion and flushable wipes in the bathroom, fun pool toys, laundry machine). There was lots of sunlight.

The swimming pool was beautiful and well-maintained with lots of deck space to hang out and a sweeping view of the Pacific; the slide was very fun. Our three year old couldn't wait to get back from day trips so he could play in the pool.

The car was spacious enough to fit our two large suitcases and two car seats and small enough to navigate tight spaces and turns on the Island.

On the road up to the house, we encountered turkeys, chickens and pigs which our three year old loved. Because the house is at a higher elevation, you have a splendid view of the sun setting on the ocean and it is delightfully cool at night and in the early morning. Chris and Karla have a charming family and our three year old had a blast playing with their kids and Snappy.

Chris and Karla clearly take great pride in their home and keep things spick and span.
