Incredible Views -- Comfortable and Quiet Home; A must visit!
Submitted: August 9, 2012
Stayed: July 2012
This house had a million dollar 180 degree Ocean View! The sunsets were spectacular. One morning, we got up early and watched the full moon set. The house was stocked with everything you could need on a Hawaiian Vacation. The internet service was fast and the laundry worked perfectly. We made most meals at the home after a quick stop at Costco for supplies and were able to prepare everything at the house. In planning the trip, the home owner contacted me within minutes whenever we had a question. The Tempur-Pedic Bed was so comfy. There was no need to use the air conditioner because the airflow and the constant wind kept the home at a perfect temperature. The home is near a market and close to our favorite beach on the island, Hapuna Beach. We have stayed on the Big Island many times but this home was by far our favorite accommodation. We loved it so much, we have made an offer on a property in the same subdivision!
Things that could maybe be different:
(1) The TV does not have a DVR which meant we weren't going to watch it! We don't do commercials. We ended up relaxing and reading books which only enhanced our visit. However, if you want to watch TV, this could be annoying.
(2) If you want regular air without air conditioning like we did and the wind stops, the home is equipped with ceiling fans. These weren't quite enough for us. We ended up purchasing a nice box fan at the local Kmart and checked it as baggage on the return flight.
Overall, pick this home! You won't regret it.
