We are only giving five stars because the software doesn’t allow ten stars. This is such a wonderful place. The two owners are doing an absolutely wonderful job. Every day breakfast was a bit different, each with delicious fruit grown on site. Very spacious room, super clean, and a breathtaking view. Excellent as on local sights. It was hard to leave.

Very friendly couple who was accommodating and gave good suggestions for nearby attractions. Property was clean with a beautiful view (can’t emphasize this enough) and good breakfast prepared by the couple. The road to getting to the property is difficult to find in the dark and is hilly (recommend a car in good condition with good brakes), but the lady came to a nearby easy to find intersection to lead us to the property. Would definitely recommend this property as long as you are okay that it is not in the most well lit area but has beautiful views!

Great b&b, amazing breakfast and friendly hosts

This b&b is one the best accomodations we have ever seen. The breakfast is really amazing (fresh fruit, handmade bread, eggs, homemade coffee, etc.); the hosts (Kurt and Kana) are very friendly and they gave us a lot of suggestions. The location is really beautiful ad the name is suggesting! If we ever come back to Big Island, we will for sure try to stay here again.
