Highly recommend staying here! Michael, Greg and Hannah have created a wonderful environment that is welcoming, peaceful and relaxing. Breakfast every morning was fantastic, the rooms were comfortable, and the sounds while falling asleep were heavenly. Michael, Greg and Hannah were full of recommendations for what to do, which was very helpful since my friend and I came to the island with no plans. They had all the beach amenities you could want (umbrellas, chairs, towels), and this made our days on the beach much more enjoyable. We stayed here for a week and did day trips to Hilo and Volcano National Park; the driving was totally manageable. I highly recommend staying at Ka'awa; I cannot wait to return!
