We spent a terrific month at Richard & Natalie's wonderful house on their 10 acre organic farm. What I wanted to experience was a relaxed, non-rushed lifestyle, and that's exactly what we got. The house was a pleasant surprise, totally situated to the gorgeous view of the hills, ocean & Maui (when it wasn't shrouded in clouds). I made the deck (with that view) my office away from home, which was very energizing. Richard & Natalie were gracious hosts, and more than willing to share their knowledge about local history and tips. Whenever we needed organically grown supplies (fresh herbs, lettuces, papayas, limes, etc) from the farm, they would deliver fresh-picked product in beautiful wicker baskets. Very nice touch. We were a short walk (5-10 minutes) away from the delightful little village of Hawi, where the locals were very friendly and welcoming. Hawi is on the northern tip of the Big Island, and while there are a few very fun things to do up there, this is not the Kona Coast with all the resorts, white beaches, etc. This property is for those who want to slow life down a bit, take a breather, rejuvenate. Oh, and one of the best things is the outdoor shower outside the master bathroom. Definitely a fun way to start the day! I'd highly recommend a stay here--the longer the better!
