Hana is special and Sybil’s cottage at Hanapapalani makes it even more so. Don’t expect fancy, that’s not Hana. Do expect to soak in the sounds and scents of the place. Doing that requires open windows and no AC. Grumble for a moment and then slowly realize that you can listen - really listen - to the birds all around you. Walk out the door, across the street and down the path to Waioka Pond. Wear your swimsuit, drip dry on the walk home.
Time moves more slowly at Hanapapalani, soak in the luxury of not being in a rush. If you get the opportunity, take time to sit and talk with Sybil. You’ll be glad you did.
