Our stay in Kohala gave us a true sense of Hawaii's jungle. The house provided us all the amenities to cook, relax and explore. Hap and Mely we're gracious and friendly hosts. Hap allowed us last minute to extend our stay and let us borrow some snorking gear. Mely gave us some delicious fruit from her garden that brightened our mornings. I would recommend staying here to any one who wants to experience Hawaii away from resorts but close enough to some amazing beaches.
