This spot is the most lush, tropical, serene and peaceful area in Honoka’a. Its the only area I’ll stay. What a treat when I realized this place was in my favorite neighborhood and around the corner from a friends’ house. It is actually a great spot for anyone traveling around the island. To the right you can drive to Hilo and to the left you can head toward Waimea or Mauna Kea—which I missed this time. Big room, comfortable bed, hot shower and even Netflix. The rain and the coqui frogs sing you to sleep and the rising sun wakes you in the morning. The place is well lit and has all the essentials you need. Privacy is very good and so is security, the way the property is set-up. Check-in beats any hotel, you just log in your password and boom you’re in. Head (left) around the corner on Kanaha for a run or morning walk, and you’ll return refreshed. Host communication is excellent, but no need to bother her as you have everything you need. Truly one of the best finds on the Big Island. I’ll be back real soon. FOOD: Head to Waimea for groceries, and next to Foodland is a food court that has the BEST burgers on the island, and take-out ThaiFood that is amazing. For a quick breakfast, head to Honokaa town to a place called Tex. Their breakfast burrito plate is delicious.
