We were beyond thrilled with Len's place at Koili Point. It was spectacular. I stayed with my husband and two kids ages 3 and 6. We used the house as a jumping off point to the local waterfalls, botanical gardens, beaches, and Volcanoes National Park, but we loved coming back to the house. The interior is beautifully done, and it is eco friendly - completely solar powered and still very comfortable given how temperate it is at Koili Point.
The kitchen was well stocked, and the appliances were new and very nice. We used the griddle attachment on the stove to make pancakes in the morning, the grill was great for making fish, and there was a nice rice cooker as well. The kids kept discovering things around the house that kept their interest - super soaker water guns, a tiny piano, a little wind up clock, and tons of great board games / puzzles for the whole family. There was also some nice snorkel gear in the garage closet with multiple different sizes of snorkel fins and a snorkel mask. The place will be super amazing when the pool is completed.
Lyman the groundskeeper was fantastic. He was very communicative and easily reachable. He helped us get settled on the first day, and he gave us some good local tips about where to swim/snorkel in the area. My husband struggled to husk a coconut from the property, and later, Lyman husked two and left them on our doorstep! What a guy! Thanks Lyman!
We have been back home for a couple days and are already missing the sun. Truly hope to come back someday!
