Welcoming hosts, beautiful grounds, and nearby scenic spots make this a wonderful location on the eastern coast of Big Island. We were mesmerized by their gardens and fell in love with their dogs.
During our stay, we took a scenic drive along 137 and snorkeled at the local tide pools. Dennis and Paul were kind enough to lend us their snorkeling gear and pointed us to a great local spot.
Getting to Mangolay can be a bit challenging especially after sunset as it involves traversing unlit roads and dirt pathways with spotty cell phone coverage, but we followed the provided instructions and got there without issue.
We'd love to stay again on the future.
