From the moment we walked into Kawehi's place, we knew it was someplace special. We enjoyed exploring and looking at all the wonderful, interesting things throughout the house. There are several different sitting areas, both inside and outside. All are comfortable and homey. The kitchen is great and had everything we needed. We loved the way things were set up. It made it fun to cook. The shower was wonderful. The bedroom was comfortable and cool with air conditioning. The whole house was very clean and nice. One thing we loved to do was watch the birds from the gazebo. There is a bird feeder and it was really fun to watch them eating and coming and going. The gardens outside are beautiful and there is a little fountain going which is really peaceful. The house is a great location with easy access to all the things to see and do in and around Hilo. Kawehi was a lovely host. We loved meeting her. She was kind, helpful, communicative, and we liked her very much. She left us delicious fruit and croissants which was really nice and very much appreciated. We felt at home and like we were with family. We were sad to go. We highly recommend Kawehi's place and hope to come back again.
