Ka'Haiya's place is cozy and comfortable, clean and quiet, and a great place to recharge. Hearing the birds in the trees in the morning along with the gentle sounds of the wind was so soothing. Hawalai Haven is every bit as charming as her photos, and then some.
Ka'Haiya was very responsive to any and every need, yet gave us our privacy during our stay. She provided numerous suggestions on what to see and do, as well as where to go for meals and groceries. She had fresh fruit set out for us as well. The local coffee place just up the road is within walking distance and it doesn't disappoint! Such a lover space and great coffee too! Ka'Haiya has taken great care to provide clear, accurate directions to her place, and we had no trouble finding it, knowing where to park, and what to expect on arrival. We loved staying here and we're sad to leave.
If you're looking for a great place to explore the Big Island, Halawai Haven is a great jumping off point for your adventure!
