This was JUST what I needed after taking two days to get here from the Isle of Man and three days in a Kona condo with no outside space you’d want to sit in. Rev. Les’s place had everything outside - the kitchen was outside on the porch, the living room was outside under an open roof and the dining area too. A whole garden to yourself and just …. quiet and peaceful. I started to relax the moment I lay on the sun lounger with nothing but birdsong around us and the sight of trees and bushes around us. Inside was a lovely open, fresh bedroom with lots of space, a bathroom with shower and toilet and a storage room for bags with a sage. To top it off a nice big tv with satellite. There are other places around you but your space in front of the cottage feels very private, ideal for a sunrise coffee or a sunset drink. Was a great base for visiting Pololu Valley and a great snorkelling cove called Mahukona in the other direction from Hawi, 10 minutes in a car. Hawi town itself is a one minute drive away or a 15 minute walk each way. We found it a great quiet base to visit the above places and also Paniolo horse place too back up the hill towards Waimea, which I highly recommend too. Rev. Les was always quick to respond, very helpful and quite a character if you get chance to chat with him. I cant recommend this place highly enough. It was safe, peaceful, quiet, private, clean, convenient and the outside space was lovely at any time of day. Stay here!! 😁
