The house was spotless. Thoughtful touches were everywhere—overhead fans in every room, a closet full of beach gear, and everything was labeled for easy access. Anything we needed, we could find: plastic utensil, coffee, condiments. No doubt some of these were left by previous guests, but I really appreciate how Dayne and Blanche organized and labeled them for our use. It’s extra work. And we are thankful. Truly, they were great hosts.
The house was an easy five minute drive downtown. We used it as a base to go north to the Botanical Gardens (a hit for the 8 through 74 year old crowd) and Laupahoehoe Beach. It was also a good base to explore the green and black sand beaches south of here.
