Very friendly couple who was accommodating and gave good suggestions for nearby attractions. Property was clean with a beautiful view (can’t emphasize this enough) and good breakfast prepared by the couple. The road to getting to the property is difficult to find in the dark and is hilly (recommend a car in good condition with good brakes), but the lady came to a nearby easy to find intersection to lead us to the property. Would definitely recommend this property as long as you are okay that it is not in the most well lit area but has beautiful views!

We are only giving five stars because the software doesn’t allow ten stars. This is such a wonderful place. The two owners are doing an absolutely wonderful job. Every day breakfast was a bit different, each with delicious fruit grown on site. Very spacious room, super clean, and a breathtaking view. Excellent as on local sights. It was hard to leave.

We enjoyed an idyllic adventure at the Beautiful Edge of the World bed and breakfast. Kurt and Caena were the ideal hosts. They provided us with a welcoming atmosphere into their home. The breakfasts provided were healthy and delicious. The setting on a coffee plantation enabled us to enjoy nature while relishing their warm hospitality. The only challenge is that to reach the inn requires driving on unpacked roads. It was raining when we first arrived and our GPS stopped working. We called and Caena drove out to meet us and lead us to her home. The next day she led us out to the highway to ensure that we were familiar with the route. After overcoming this minor problem, we had a marvelous time at the Beautiful Edge of the World, which truly lived up to its name.

Kurt and Kana were wonderful hosts. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our stay with them! Kana made us a wonderful breakfast each morning. We got to try lots of tropical fruits they grew on their land, and the coffee was amazing. It was so peaceful and quiet, we could hear the waves from the few miles away the beach is. Kurt recommended some really good places to eat and beaches to go to. The sunset from the lanai was so gorgeous. The view was breathtaking. The bed was comfy. We also liked the water pressure in the shower. Also whatever soap they have for guests in the shower smells amazing and the shampoo and conditioner made my hair feel soft and look shiny. If we ever find ourselves back on the Big Island, we’re definitely going to stay here again! I would recommend The Edge to anyone and everyone.
Sunset from the lanai downstairs
Sunset from the lanai downstairs and arguably my favorite sunset photo from my whole trip.
View from the lanai in the crows nest, the room we stayed in. I enjoyed this view for hours each morning.

Great ocean view from the large, comfortable porch(lanai). Wonderful breakfast! We had the smaller room but it was sufficient and the living room and lanai were very comfortable to hang out. Bathroom was not in room but just a few steps down the hall and large and private. Jungle road to get there is awesome. A little hard to find at night. Jungle noises, mostly frogs, in evenings was nice. Roosters at 3:30 am not so nice but we got used to it. I had thought from the write up on it that we had use of the kitchen but it didn’t really feel that way but we did have our own small fridge to use. There were coolers and swim and snorkel stuff and beach chairs to use which was great. Easy access to good snorkeling and points south but a lot of traffic to go toward Kona. Overall it was a great place and we would stay there again. Nice hosts.
