Wendy - Mahalo for making us feel very welcome, providing a place of tremendous beauty and solitude, for the delicious fresh fruit, for great adventuring ideas, suggestions for good eats in Kona, and for insights into Hawaiian culture. For us, Waiola will always be a really special place: simply, beautifully, and tastefully furnished with ample cooking (and coffee/tea-making supplies!); a complete absence of light pollution for incredible star gazing; and a lack of noise pollution that let us appreciate the quiet, lovely setting and sleep deeply. It is amazing that one can have all this and still be such an easy drive from great activities! Until next time... Aloha!
