This is the kind of review you hate to write, because if you say how utterly amazing the Pualani Upcountry Villa is, you are afraid it will never be available to book again. The photos - as appealing as they are - can't even begin to capture the peace and beauty you will find in this gorgeous place. Birdsong, breezes, views for miles, sunsets that last for hours, a perfectly stocked kitchen, exceedingly comfortable beds, room to stretch, rules that make sense, historical interest, hosts who are present in the best ways ... yes I could go on and on. It just doesn't get better than this, if you are looking for the getaway of a lifetime. You'll need a car that will make it up the hill and to make it to the grocery store before it closes. But if you are anything like my family, you simply won't want to leave.
