I don't even know where to begin... Big Island was the last stop of our trip and truly the 'grand finale'.
It started with the excellent communicaion I had with Kate before the trip. She made sure that upon arrival we had what we needed (milk, coffee and the famous delicious banana nut bread) and she sent an exact route description in case the navigation system failed to find the house. Thanks to that we found the place and it was even better than the pictures and the description depicted it!
The apartement itself is modern and absolutely clean. There is a small kitchen with everything you need to prepare some breakfast or even some pasta. The bathroom is fantastic and the bedroom very cosy. We felt right at home!
The view of the ocean is spectacular and the garden with the fruit is already higly praised in the other reviews. There were fruits we did not even know existed, like loquats and surinam cherries. What a wonderful experience to be able to taste those!
The thing I enjoyed the most though was the friendliness and warmth of Kate (unfortunately we did not get to meet Neil). She was so helpful, gave tips for our trips, helped out when I was a sick, and we had the most interesting conversations.
We had the most wonderful time and can only highly recommend this apartment.
