Beth was an amazing host and the her home was exactly what my husband and I was looking for. The house is nestled in a nice neighborhood and we could hear the ocean waves each night. Waking up each morning to all the tropical birds signing was an added bonus. It was so nice having a fully furnished kitchen, as food is very expensive on the island, so we had the ability to make breakfast each morning and pack a lunch for day time adventures. Beth has coolers that she allowed us to use. There is a BBQ so we took advantage and BBQ'd steak, shrimp, and corn on the cob one night. My Husband and I are definitely planning to go back to the big island and will stay at Beth's if it is available.
