WOW what a beautiful place to stay while visiting Big Island! A lovely retreat that makes you feel like you’re in the middle of a jungle. With all the amenities you could possibly need, the place is cosy and so cute.
Sanyu and her son Derrick are lovely hosts! Sanyu made a delicious quiche upon arrival which was all gone by dinner time! As locals, they both had amazing recommendations for us to do on the island which I believe we did almost all of them :) as suggested in the listing, a 4WD is highly recommended not only to get to this hidden retreat but also to enjoy what the Big Island truly has to offer.
I recommend doing a grocery shop at KTA in Hilo or Foodland on the way to the house and stock up on snacks, fruit, beer etc as it can be quite a long drive over the rugged roads, although we loved it and by the end we were driving over the potholes like locals ;)
We had such an amazing time and if we ever come back to Big Island we will definitely be staying here again! Best value for money, thank you so much for having us! We had an absolute amazing time in your beautiful retreat.
