Wow!!! When we found this location we were blown away by the pictures, but they didn’t even begin to do justice to this beautiful home and scenic location. Waking up to a spectacular view of the ocean followed up with a view of the majestic Mauna Kea from the shower was mind blowing!
The house and property are cool in of themselves. The house is off the grid and they made it super easy to keep everything charged and running easily, it really was no hassle at all. The loft was beyond amazing, such a great view! Most of our time was spent on the deck, enjoying coffee and breakfast outside as we’d see the occasional horses and flock of peacocks (to be clear, none of the animals were ever remotely close to being a nuisance).
*In an earlier review someone mentioned that the refrigerator didn’t keep things cold, but we had no issues like that at all over our four night stay. We did find that there were a couple of times when we didn’t close the door all the way, that may have been the problem.*
As an added awesome touch Ashley, Keith’s daughter, enjoys making trail maps of the area and was a wealth of local information. She was super upbeat and did a great job of making sure we were comfortable and felt at home.
I would recommend an SUV of some sort as the road is a little bumpy. At one point the road was out due to flooding, but it was no big deal at all as Ashley had taken the time to walk us through the secondary route to the house (which turned out to be incredibly scenic and we took once again to enjoy it in the day light).
Overall, I can’t even begin to state just how awesome our experience was. We had some very high expectations, but they were totally blown out of the water. The next time we head to the Big Island I won’t even consider another location, this was amazing!!!
