Summary: Wow! This property and home are absolutely gorgeous! As you enter the property, lush ferns, baby pineapple plants, puakenikeni tree line the driveway. The home is spacious with beautiful decor, flooring, and views of surrounding plants of the rainforest. Linda, the host, was so thoughtful in all the touches to make sure guests have everything we need, even fresh bowl of fruit 💞 She was very responsive, accommodating, and welcoming, checking on us to ensure everything was going well for our family. We were there for Merrie Monarch, which entails a lot of preparation and logistics. One thing we didn't have to worry about was any issues the lodging as everything went without a hitch. We would love to stay here again and my Aunty is looking into bringing her family back. Mahalo SO very much Linda. We are beyond grateful for you and your hospitality.
