The house is big, spacious and clean, and charmingly tucked into the hills above the tourist fray, which helped us first-timers get a nice sense of local life. Also, the nearby Holuakoa Cafe restaurant was probably our best dinner during our whole stay on big island. The breezes at night made for great sleeping, the laundry was very helpful, the snorkel and beach gear was great to have on hand, and the property is big enough to keep you from noticing any neighbors - felt nice and secluded. Thanks, Sue!
