We liked the area a great deal. Our first stay in Kohala district, but have been to the island several times previously. It’s a farm, so there are chickens, insects, geckos, and other people in nearby units, overall we really enjoyed meeting rev. Les and learning more about the aina. We were able to walk to the Hawi village in 20 minutes where there is a Saturday farmer’s market, rev. Les offered a variety of fruit, and vegetables, though no mangoes were ripe at the time.
Our cottage was quite roomy, with comfy beds, a generous kitchen, full size refrigerator, and a large shower stall. Unfortunately, a couple of critters got into the ceiling space while we were there and scampered around waking us up several times. That’s farm life, imperfect at times.
Access to the property is through a gate with keypad and I struggled with one of the numbers several times, then forgot to mention it to owners!
Not a resort, very low key, rural, frequent bird song, but relaxing for certain.
