Iris and Robert were the most gracious hosts! Two eager thumbs up - they ensured the accommodations were spotless and had everything we needed and MORE. They provided the kids with legos and use of snorkle/masks, gear for the lava viewing and boogie boards for our trip to the beach. We were blown away with their hospitality, recommendations for things to do and overall care for our well being. Highest recommendations for staying at Hale Mapuana...if we are ever back on the big island, cannot imagine staying anywhere else.
