It is difficult to put into words just how amazing this place is-even our kids felt right at home. The early mornings, drinking kona coffee on the patio, were especially sublime. The drive into Kailua Kona provided gorgeous views of the ocean and mountainside, and the elevation kept it a wee bit cooler than by the coast. If you want to experience the best of the Big Island without dealing with the plastic culture offered by the resorts, do yourself a favor and book a stay at LeeAnne's- you wont regret it.
