The host was great so kind sharing local spots for hiking food photography of gorgeous sunsets and beautiful beach excursions nearby. Each morning We had a wonderful time waking up looking at Maui in the distance with Haleakala, towering from the blue Pacific Ocean. Such a relaxing environment with fruit trees, animals, cool breezes and breathtaking beauty all around thank you so much for a great mini getaway for my wife and I.

What a peaceful place, juicing oranges everyday felt like drinking the sun, striking views of the ocean, Maui, and the stars, absolutely loved the outdoor shower.

To describe this place, with Donna and Kevin as the amazing host they were, feels near impossible. I had the amazing opportunity to travel to Big Island for a week and staying on this property could be the highlight of my own trip. So cozy, so privately mine, so beautiful. I highly recommend staying here and meeting Donna and Kevin because they were so helpful and wonderful and communicative to help me have the greatest week. Best recs from the hosts: Snorkel at Mahu Kona (best snorkeling I had all trip), drive up to Pololu and stop at Fresh Off The Grill for a poke bowl/nachos and then hike down to Pololu and sit and listen to the waves roll through the black rocks. Wow. Big Island is such a special place and so is Donna and Kevin's property. Please please please get out there and stay with these wonderful hosts and their dogs. Catch the sunset and say hi to the neighbors mini horse. Missing this place every day and plan to return! Mahola, Donna & Kevin

Staying at Donna and Kevin's place was amazing. Its out of the way, quiet and scenic, feels like a real get-away. I traveled with my 10-yr-old daughter and Kevin picked lemons and oranges with her in the backyard. A very memorable experience for her. Very much an outdoor feel, yet very cozy. A great home base to explore the north island. Hawi has a great local vibe on Friday nights :) We would definitely stay here again!

This property is a living botanical garden, replete with fruit trees and lovely plantings. Hosts Donna and Kevin have built a delightful, peaceful haven overlooking Maui across the channel. Not everyone wil enjoy using the outdoor toilet especially at night, but we didn’t mind, and the outdoor shower was a big hit with us! We had everything we needed for our 3 night stay plus had lots of advice from the hosts re local activities and resources. The location is not walkable to town but is about a ten minute, pretty drive there. We would stay here again!

Genuinely nice folks Kevin and Donna. I really appreciated their special customized touch to the accommodations which included a cozy bedroom and separate kitchen dining area. Bathroom and shower is outside in a garden area. Could use more lighting for walkway to bathroom area and maybe a dedicated umbrella. It’s generally quiet and peaceful giving one an immersive experience of the Hawaiian countryside. I really enjoy the occasional rain which is nice to sleep by.

It is unlikely you will ever stay at a more beautiful, private, picturesque place on the big island at this price. Driving into the property, I simply could not believe how gorgeous the gardens were, nor the views across the orchard to the ocean and on to Maui. Breathtaking. All of which makes it so surprising that the accommodation itself is so funky, lacking in aesthetics and simple comforts (eg, a bed light to read by or any light to find the outdoor toilet). The bed itself was comfy and there were ample towels & beach chairs. Grateful to host for jumpstarting car battery!
