We found this place extremely interesting and different from most. It is secluded in the jungle and has a very calm feel. There was mention of Internet, but we were unable to receive it. No direct washer and dryer as advertised, but I'm sure she would let you use it from her house. Everything natural and organic. No roaches were seen in this place, but the geckos were cute as hell. At night the coqui frogs become rather loud...music to my ears, but hated by my partner. Host was helpful and caring.

We spent several days at Linda's place and couldn't have asked for anything better.The house has so many intricate details, everything you could possibly need and feels cozy. Linda is an amazing and generous host, we loved all the fruit.

This place was such a treat. It was like a hidden tree house with all the luxuries you need. The location is not near the busy town, so you really get a laid back experience. Linda was a great host and provided fresh fruit from her property almost every day. The house has windows, but most of them are just screens so you’re really immersed in all that nature has to offer. Just make sure to pack warm clothes to sleep in, as it does get colder at night. The closest beach is about 5 minutes away and mostly secluded. You will quickly learn to make friends with all the geckos, they are your friend not your enemy. Definitely make sure to have some sort of SUV because the drive up to the house is intense. Overall we had an amazing experience at Hale Meow Meow and will make sure to come back next time we’re on The Big Island !

Yes, my FAVORITE!! This place truly is an oasis. It is perfectly located directly off the main road but tucked away down a beautifully bumpy and overgrown driveway, the moment you get there you will be in aw. The vegetation, the house, the outdoor tub, the garden, fruit trees everywhere, color everywhere, the happiest place I have ever experienced! I couldnt find a single complaint about this place. I will never stay anywhere else on the big island!

This property was a great stay. Linda, the owner was marvelous to communicate withWe arrived strangers and we left friends. The Balinese style house was great. My upstairs room was unique and comfortable and a perfect hideaway. The gardens were lush and pretty. OB the Cat was a delightful greeter on our arrival. I would recommend this property to anyone as long as you're not afraid of geckos.They are so cute.

Nothing but praise for this wonderful island style cottage; Linda has provided EVERYTHING you could need and is such an attentive host. The kitchen is complete with everything you need and plenty of condiments and spices. Loved the comfortable bed and quality linen. We enjoyed the cottage overall and mature surrounding gardens. Linda pointed us to a good nearby beach to snorkel and swim. This is a unique place, decorated so tastefully with treasures from Bali and island produced art. Good privacy and discrete assistance and interaction with host Linda and her friendly cat, OB. You are in a tropical forest with ocean views, A real find, we would definitely come to stay again. The photos don't show how spacious the cottage is. NOTE: Pick up groceries at Costco or the supermarkets in Kona !! Not much to be had locally, but we did love the Mexican(Honduran) food at the nearest tiny grocery store, about 10 minutes away, really authentic, tasty and not expensive. Nice owners as well. Thank you Linda for providing just what we were looking for - away from the maddening crowd!

We were delighted to return to Hale meow meow and were spoiled again...a uniquely charming and comfortable home tucked into the most lush tropical garden. Everything we need is handy. We love to use the barbeque outside for dinner and soaking in the outdoor tub after a day's adventure is so fabulous. The sunsets are outrageous and Linda is the absolute best. Mahalo!

We spent four magical nights and enjoyed every minute, the house, the lovely gardens, the sunset views, and all the DVDs to watch in the evenings. Plus the host! She is a jeweller and made me an exquisite necklace during my stay. Will definitely return for more!

Great place to stay to get a true Hawaiian experience. Linda was a great host, very helpful. The fresh fruit from Linda's gardens was delicious. Ask Linda for a tour of the garden if you get a chance. She takes great pride in it and loves to show people around.

I can’t say enough about our stay at Hale Meow Meow. Not only is it in a beautiful garden setting but also has a gorgeous view of the sunset over the ocean. Linda is an incredible host and made us feel extremely welcome. When I come back to the Big Isle, I will definitely be staying here.

Linda could not have been nicer. We received a warm and friendly greeting upon arrival. Once inside the most gorgeous arrangements of tropical flowers from the surrounding garden and fresh fruit were left for us to enjoy. Attentive without being obtrusive. A unique cottage with lots of individual spaces to spread out - each with its own separate entrance to the outside. Lovely Indonesian furnishings and artwork reflecting Linda’s travels around the world along with an evening serenade of frog song created the peaceful retreat we were seeking for our stay on Hawaii Island. Rustic in the sense that the tap water is not potable and must be filtered prior to use and a fair amount of mosquitoes present to contend with all the nightly rains during our stay late July-early Aug. Citronella candles and spray were provided. We adapted with mosquito nets for sleeping. Hale Meow Meow is an indoor/outdoor experience in a truly special and beautiful setting surrounded by lush and spectacular gardens.
