Jeanette and Andrew are the ULTIMATE hosts.... so warm and caring! They shared their gorgeous home with me and made me feel welcome from the very first communication. Everything was provided to make my stay comfortable.... the gourmet kitchen, the self-serve continental breakfast (delicious!), the beach equipment/towels and the comfy bed and sparkling clean bathroom! Jeanette made us mango daquiris... so frosty cold and delicious and refreshing after my long flight. Andrew is a professional concierge and gives you travel information... itinerary, restaurants etc to customize your plan for a perfect stay on Hawaii and Jeanette knows all kinds of great tips.They are there to interact with you as much or as little (to give you privacy) you may want. Their porch area is so peaceful and relaxing with the landscaping and the beautiful birds that visit (you can feed them). And the private BEACH! WOW!! What a gem..... gorgeous protected little bay, good snorkeling, and a restaurant right there! Who needs the high cost of a resort.... this is the BEST relaxing beach I have found on the Big Island. It was just what I needed to recharge and relax. And the neighborhood's pool and rec area is lovely and never crowded. Wonderful, sincerely caring, lovely people and the location and amenities are perfect! I would love to stay here again if I am ever able to get back to the Big Island. So beautiful and relaxing.... sigh, I miss it already. Mahalo, Donna
