Tom and Adrienne were extremely gracious and generous hosts. From the time Tom waited up for me to arrive due to my delayed flight, to the morning of my departure, I had a GREAT experience staying with them. They each suggested places to visit and routes to get there, and their "insider knowledge" got me to very enjoyable and beautiful places not in the guidebooks. Tom loaned me snorkeling equipment and beach towels and chairs--as a result I had one of the best beach experiences ever. He even let me park my rented bike in the garage and loaned me his pump to ensure the tires had enough air. Adrienne gave me tips on finding a black sand, beach, too. I had breakfast each day on their gorgeous back porch, with a view of the ocean. In general, I was able to come and go as I pleased, and parking the rental car was no problem. Their dog, T-Bone, was very friendly--he was always happy to see me. Their location is great--easy drive to resorts, airport, Waimea, Kona, and Hilo, and they are convenient to an excellent grocery store and Lava Java in the shopping center. Tom and Adrienne work to make a good location a great experience. Extremely highly recommended!
