If you are planning on visiting most of the island and don't mind driving this is the best place for you to stay on the island. Centrally situated you can go to the most desired locations in a half an hour. Nights are truly spectacular with the stars so close that you can touch them.The morning view with the sun coming up over Mauna Kea was awe inspiring an never failed to get me out of bed right at day break. The gated community is extremely pretty and convenient for seniors to do any length of walk you desire. The apartment itself is clean comfortable and quiet and the setting is uniquely beautiful . We highly recommend Erica and Andrew as hosts their responses were quick and precise especially for a couple that is technically unsophisticated . We would love to stay with them again.
