If you can book Ann's place on the Big Island, you are very lucky!
Ann was a great host, very welcoming and communicative.
Check-in/out process was super easy, the place has nice views, and the little balcony area is a good addition for morning coffee and dinner.
The location is in a residential neighbourhood so there are no shops or stores within walking distance but it's very close by car which worked perfect for us - Nice and quiet yet close to beaches by car.
