The rental unit was very comfortable. I appreciated having multiple separate rooms, so that I wouldn't wake my partner while she slept in.
The area was both quiet and very scenic.
Jess was very welcoming. She even provided some fresh fruit, and (when asked) she provided some great restaurant recommendations.
If you're looking to visit Waimea regularly during your stay, be aware that it requires a 30 to 40 minute drive--the shorter route up and down some winding (yet scenic) roads, while the longer route along a much smoother coastal road. The rental unit is very close to Hawi and also close to Pololū Valley.
