We booked a room at Jacqueline's place because we needed a place to stay the night before taking engagement photos in Waipio Valley. Due to the weather, we had to shift our check-in and check-out dates and Jacqueline was very accommodating.
The property itself was beautiful with a lot of unique character. It was very peaceful within the natural surroundings. There was a great selection of books for the avid traveler in the library/living room as well. Do note that there are lots of frog noises in the night, but earplugs are provided just in case one is bothered by them. The room we stayed in was clean and cozy with a very homey feel. Bonus points for the friendly cat named Sweety!
Jacqueline herself was very hospitable with great conversation. She greeted us with hot tea and cookies before giving us a tour of the property. She made an incredible breakfast for us which consisted of organic fresh fruit, matcha banana bread with local lilikoi butter, a pesto-mushroom-avocado egg scramble, and a papaya smoothie. Jacqueline was also a great resource for travel tips and local activities.
We had a wonderful stay with Jacqueline and we will definitely be back again! What a wonderful, quiet place to stay and relax!
