The Kona Mamaki is truly a magical experience! You can enjoy fresh bananas and papayas from the yard each morning, listening to the sounds of coqui frogs in the evening, sitting out on the lanai and even watching the sun go down over the ocean. The house has everything you need, including all the pots and pans for cooking anything you might like and extra bedding. Having the dryer was wonderful, since towels and things don't dry very well in the humidity. There's lot of beach gear you can borrow, including boogie boards and snorkels. Midori was a wonderful host and was on-hand if we needed anything or had any question. Staying there was one of the highlights of our trip to Hawaii!
