I have been traveling to the Honokaa area for the last 30 years and I have stayed in many types of accommodations. What sets Jacqueline apart from the others is not only her willingness to assist travelers beyond what would normally be expected but also her intimate knowledge of the area. The location of Waipio Wayside is perfectly situated for visiting the area. The accommodations are immaculate and charming, as this was the plantation managers home. The views from her deck are spectacular! She also maintains a large number of books about the history of the area—which is helpful since many of the guides and tours do not provide much depth. I did not have the breakfast but it did appear to be popular with the other guests. Although her website says there is no phone service and only internet, keep in mind that most service plans include internet calling so I had no problem (Verizon) making and receiving calls to the mainland. In short, I highly recommend Waipio Wayside as I doubt you could find a better host or accommodations! Dave
