My boyfriend and I were looking for a peaceful place to relax for a couple of days, and the Waiola Guesthouse exceeded our expectations. The photos simply do not do this place justice! The studio is charming and has everything you need, including a well-appointed kitchen, extra towels and blankets and a wonderful soaking tub. The view from the veranda was magnificent - we could have spent all day in those rocking chairs listening to the birds. Wendy and David were lovely hosts and made us feel very welcome, and we also loved their beautiful dogs. Our only regret is that we weren't able to stay longer - but we look forward to visiting again the next time we're on the Big Island!
