You know when you find a place so uniquely special you want to keep it secret but at the same time shout it to the world? Hamakua House is just such a place. If you enjoy sleeping outside listening to the sounds of nature, this is your place. Matt & Doug are gracious hosts and provide everything you need for an enjoyable stay. My concerns about sleeping in a hammock never came to fruition - I found I slept better than in the luxury beds in Waikoloa! An amazing experience, especially great for kids. We loved the swimming hole, Mr. Ed's Bakery, the Pau Cow, the Honomu Goat Dairy, Akaka Falls, (all local) the rainforest sounds at night, the view from the shower, the fun of meeting like-minded people from around the world. 5-star experience we will always remember!
