Cleanse Your Soul
This is a very special home about a 1.5 miles from the Waipio Valley Lookout. It's most suited for a couple with small kids or a single traveler. The front lanai view is gorgeous and their is also a lovely back patio with a small orchard. You are fully immersed in nature and the wonderful geckos combat the insects. It takes a few days to get used to their clicking through the night as they are loud and locquacious. Walking to Waipio daily was fantastic.I was extremely pleased with the fully stocked kitchen including a wok and rice maker. For a long term stay it has pretty much everything you would want and there is also a gas grill in back. The only thing I might add would be a few more sheet pans and a crock pot. And perhaps an immersion blender. The location is outstanding if you prefer to be in a non-touristy area. You're gonna do some driving for sure, but you're closer to Hilo, the Volcanoes, and only 10 mins from Honokaa which has several good restaurants and a grocery store. It's also only 25 mins ftom Waimea which has more food options. The management (Grace/Bonnie) and owner (Julie) couldn't be more accomadating, but truthfully I had zero issues during my month long stay. If you a lucky enough to visit the Big Island for a Iong-term stay I would highly recommended this property over anything in Kona, Waikoloa, Kawaihae, Waimea, Captain Cook, Hilo, etc. It’s also incredibly reasonable. I hope to come back in the near future.Bill T
