These warm, welcoming and courteous hosts provided us a sense of home away from home. Our space was clean and comfortable and communication with the hosts was very helpful to enhance our stay. The breakfast items provided included fresh fruit, fresh macadamia nuts and fresh baked goods daily. We hope you stay here and enjoy it as much as we did, the hot tub is a MUST after a long day of exploring Hawaii’s big island. We’d love to come back!

The inn was clearly run very well. Clean, well maintained, beautiful, peaceful, and real unique rustic character as far as aesthetics go. There was a fully stocked kitchen that we could use. Literally the only downside of this inn was an overzealous rooster. But that's Hawaii. There are wild birds all over the island. If you don't like nature, then maybe a resort will treat you better. For those who want a more immersive and real experience with genuine heart, I highly recommend it. This is a place that I'll strongly consider coming back to on a future visit.

Beautiful place making our first visit to the island such a peaceful, relaxing stay! I enjoyed the open windows in our room. There was no air conditioning, but fans were provided. We visited during February and the temperatures would get down in the 60s at night. The only time we saw other guests was during breakfast or at night during our return. My favorite memory was the coqui frogs you can hear at night and the fresh baked goods put out every morning.

A long stop over, and an amazing stay.

Amazing building in the hills of Kona. If you do not mind being a bit out of the town for the joys of nature, this is a perfect place. Maybe a 10 minute drive to downtown restaurants, etc. if you love frogs croaking and chirping it is great. Gardens, beautiful flowers are a treat.
