Stephens "Enchanting Rain Forest House" is much more than just a house. It's a beautiful property in the Hawaiian Rain Forest. Classy in it's style, decorations and landscaping it catches your eye with every glance. We arrived at night and were at once taken by the night sounds of the rain forest. Frogs and other night creatures greeted us with a melodic chorus that seemed to say welcome to our "place."
Stephen greeted us and showed us through the house explaining all the details we needed to know in order to make our stay comfortable. All questions we had were answered.
Not a neighbor can be seen or heard. The house is hidden from the road by a winding driveway. Privacy, peace and solitude are the watch words describing the setting.
Stephen has lived in the Islands most of his life and is a veritable encyclopedia of information which we found to be most useful. He knows where the best shopping, open markets and sites are to be found. If you go take his advice.
Our stay took place the week of Hurricane/Tropical Storm Lane. Many of the sites we planned to visit were closed due to high waters or mud slides. Nevertheless we did spend a lot of time sight seeing and we did get very wet. Umbrella's are a requirement.
Another requirement is a real GPS. The GPS on your cell phone may not serve you well since cellular service is somewhat spotting. We took a Garmin GPS and it worked flawlessly. The directions on the web sight are very accurate and can be trusted if you don't have a stand alone GPS.
We'd stay at Stephens place again. It is deserving of the highest rating. Stephen is a definite super host.
