Richard's place is just 'Wow!' It sits on 10 beautiful acres overlooking the ocean and is surrounded by a beautiful working organic farm. We enjoyed the bounty of fresh fruits and farm fresh eggs. The outdoor shower in a secluded garden off the bedroom was a highlight to my morning following by the sunrise and a cup of coffee on the lanai. Spent many afternoons in the hammock while the family tossed a stick to the resident dog and petted the two cats. Blissful getaway. We toured the island, but struggled to tear ourselves away from this sanctuary of a property. The little town of Hawi has several restaurants including Bamboo (great restaurant and art gallery) and a delicious coffee shop with crazy good ice cream, but we equally enjoyed dining on the lanai at the house. The little mountain town of Weimea is a short beautiful drive from Hawi, and we enjoyed dining there, too. Richard was always available to assist us with any need or question and remarkably accommodated us on short notice. Great host! Great property! This one is a do-over! The only downside was we had to leave to get back to 'real life.'
