We loved the Hale Kea! It was hands down the best airbnb place we stayed at while we were in Hawaii (both the big island and Oahu)! It was so spacious, in a great, quite neighborhood, and just felt like home. Thomas was very welcoming (via airbnb notifications) but also gave us some distance, which was great since we were on our honeymoon! I'd totally recommend this place to anyone, it was so comfortable, clean , private, and welcoming.
