What a wonderful, relaxing location!

We just returned from the Big Island and Bamboo Hideaway was one of the highlights. As soon as we walked in and saw the unit, the artwork, the immaculate kitchen and bathroom, we knew this was an "upscale" accommodation. The pictures with the listing are all accurate - the view really does look like that - including the sunset!
It is extremely well equipped - beach and picnic gear; full size refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, 2 burner hotplate, blender, coffee maker, electric frying pan, plenty of dishes, nice glassware. Absolutely everything we could have wanted for our stay. The lanai is awesome - we spent mornings and evenings just sitting there, watching the ocean, listening to the birds. The little geckos were quite entertaining. We appreciated the washer and drier.
If you need to be around lots of night life, shopping, activities, then you might prefer being closer in to the city. The drive from Captain Cook to Kailua-Kona is about 20 minutes. The only "down side" (pun intended) was the very steep road and driveway... but that came along with the hillside location and view.
We would definitely stay here again if we are on the island in the future. In fact, I'd be happy to spend my whole stay here! Nancy's information and directions were perfect and she made sure we had emergency contact numbers, though we were happy to not need them.
