Our stay with Rich and his family was fabulous! They are all so friendly and helpful. This is a no frills place, but it was comfortable and felt very welcoming . Their yard is a wonderland of beautiful Hawaiian vegetation, the pool was clean and fun, and the dogs became fast friends with us. All the suggestions that were made by our hosts were beautiful. The guide to the big island provided is also a great planning book. If you are really private people and would prefer to not see your host, This place is not for you. But, if you’re an extrovert or can challenge yourself, you won’t find better company than Rich, Barb, and Jenny. They felt like immediate family. It truly is a little hideaway in the jungle ❤️If we go back, there is no doubt I’ll be calling rich up to let him know we’re on our way!
