Aloha spirit is embodied here! My partner and I felt a deep connection to the 'aina and the incredible people of this community.
This home is perfectly located right near Manini Beach, the sacred fresh water upspring on Kealakekua Bay. Looking out from the beautiful garden you can see across the Bay to the cliffs on the other side. Inside the apartment, you are blessed with a plethora of wonderful books ranging from Old Hawaiian spirituality to Japanese poems of love and longing. Kona coffee, ripe papayas, and aloe vera gel were the cherry on top!
Heidi is an incredible hostess, and embodies the spirit of Aloha. She went above and beyond to help us get a kayak when we slept in and missed the rental, as well as telling us about all the best snorkeling spots. We felt tied into the Kealakekua Bay community, which is priceless.
I cannot recommend staying here enough!
