Summary: This was a repeat stay for us because we absolutely love Gale’s property. Best spot on the Big Island because it’s close to town, but still accessible if you want to go to Waimea, Hilo or Volcano National Park. Very private spot with a beautiful lanai where we enjoyed breakfast each day. Absolutely favorite vacation spot and we will be back! The property is so clean and has everything you need to have an enjoyable time - love that Gale thinks of everything - from banana bread to welcome us, to beach gear and coolers, to kitchen implements and various coffee makers.
