Karelyn is an amazing, kind and thoughtful host. She really made us feel at home. Right from check in she was so warm and welcoming, opening up her home to us. We arrived late in the evening and she was still up and happy to show us around. We slept on a beautiful memory foam mattress and she had candles and twinkly lights in the room set up, which made it feel so welcoming. There was a lamp as well if you wanted to read but the little homie touches were the sweetest. She also had treats out for us in the kitchen if we were hungry. The next morning she made us coffee and helped us decide what to see that was around. We met her beautiful animals that she has on property which was a very cool experience if you’ve never been around True Parrot’s before they are really spectacular and so beautiful with all of their colors. They are so smart and really funny if they want your attention with their talking and acrobatic moves. She has a beautiful property to walk around or two private porches to hang out on outside. One was screened in so it was perfect once it got later with the mosquitoes, if any. She has chickens and we were able to enjoy their eggs which were amazing. Definitely a beautiful peaceful stay and not too far from Pahoa town. I’m definitely coming back. Thank you Karelyn!
