We stayed in Jan and Saima's "hale" for three nights in April. It's a lovely and comfortable apartment with a great lanai overlooking a back yard full of fruit trees and a wide distant view of the ocean. We much appreciated the cleanliness and fresh fruit Jan left for us upon check-in (pineapple, mango, avocado), and the bag of Kona coffee. We also appreciated the high-quality pots and pans in the kitchen and the closet of beach accessories. From the hale we drove to a great beach (Kua Bay) for fun, sun, and boogie-boarding, and hooked up with a snorkel boat for a great snorkel tour of Kealakekua Bay. Finally, Jan was a very gracious host -- he pays attention to details and didn't charge me for a wine glass I accidentally broke!
