I do not really know how to begin this review except to say that it felt like FAMILY. No, wait. Let me correct that. BETTER than family!! The accommodations at the Chateau Kilauea were perfect, with a very comfortable bed and lovely bedspread, pillowcases and extra pillows (thanks for thinking of my bad back, as I had to use them to 'prop' myself up to a reclining position in bed.) The bathroom was decked out with great natural and organic amenities. The shower was lusciously hot, the toilet flushed well. I never thought catchment water would be so...NORMAL! lol
Sitting on the porch in the morning was one of the highlights of each day, with luscious organic coffee on demand with chocolate filled croissants, chocolate chocolate chip muffins and coffee cake every morning! Just sitting there, listening to the wind chimes, birds and feeling the refreshing rain made you feel ALIVE. This is the way to live. There is no other life I could want. The animals were sweet, especially Ranger, the big mush lol. We were EXTREMELY sad to go. We stayed at 2 other B+Bs from AirBNB on this trip and did not have this, how should I say, SPIRITUAL experience of being really ALIVE and completely atuned to our environment and the earth, wind, rain and forest. The only thing I regret is not getting a chance to enjoy the hot tub! Next time, though...and next time you will be the ONLY B+B we stay with!! I want to give Chateau Kilauea at Lazy Acres 6 stars, but I don't want the secret to get out! lol Was that a good enough review? M-A-H-A-L-O and we will be there sooner rather than later. The plan is in the works. Love you both...so much aloha on your property...Anne Marie and Gaetano
