A pristine oasis in the jungle. We were charmed by the dogs and cats who kept us company on the hammocks and the fresh fruit that arrived on our lanai each morning. Joe's tips for getting around the South Island were very helpful and took us to pristine beaches. The property is perfect for exploring the Volcano National Park and Two-Step snorkeling on a day trip-- we rented from Kona Boys and they were very helpful. It's a bit of a drive to restaurants, but what a drive! Winding through lush tropics and lava fields with the coastline peaking through the trees. The house had everything we needed from cooking basics to a full kitchen. If you're there on a Thursday or a Friday, make sure to jump up to Randy's Huli Huli Chicken for some of the best BBQ rotisserie chicken. A very special thanks to Kat and Joe for letting us stay in their property.
