You have a little treasure here in paradise. Because of your attention to detail, you have made our stay here one to remember. We loved staying out here, close to Waimea shopping and culture, yet away from the hustle and bustle of Kona and Hilo …with all that comes with high traffic tourist areas. Yet, we felt very accessible to both towns, as well as other places…with just a very scenic drive which was a treat in itself. Most memorable to us was the trip out to visit the volcano national park to experience Kilauea and walk right out to where the lava covered the roadway. Truly an awesome sight to behold and experience. We wish you two the very best in your lives here on the Big Island . We will see you again. Mahalo and aloha, Gail and Rick , British Columbia , Canada .

Thanks so much for the beach toys and all the other beach equipment you provided our family. Nothing was lacking. It has been a great stay here. We RELAXED.
Our vacation has been everything and more thanks to the comfort, convenience and the generous amenities. The private laundry machines (even detergents) let us
use time on the beach and not standing in line at the laundr-o-mat in town. The location to the beaches (Hapuna and Mauna Kea beach---wow) as well as to shopping
was perfect. We will come back to stay.

We made it back to the Big Island and realized that there is so much to do here, we just might have to return. We really loved staying in this cottage and enjoyed the deck every day for dining outdoors. Thanks again for making our stay so welcoming. Hope to be back again in the not too distant future.

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us. We very much enjoyed our stay and really liked the area in which you live. There were so many nice touches to the cottage from the lovely fruit basket to having everything we needed at our fingertips. It really was wonderful.
Thanks so much. The Lewis Family.

Mahalo (thank you) for everything!! This was truly a home away from home for us. The cottage was so comfortable...and what a great location! We had a great time visiting the Mauna Kea and Hapuna beaches every day...those 2 were, by far, our nearby favorites! We had a beautiful, relaxing time. Tiffany & Kevin, USA

Well, this was time #2 at your cottage; actually it was visit #12 to the Big island!! We just love this island. In these past 2 weeks here, not even
a sprinkle of rain...and the lava flowed and we saw it !! We just loved your boogie boards....and each year we bring a guest along...and they
too loved being taught how to use your boogie boards!! The volcano is truly a wonder of the world. And, we think Hapuna is the #1 beach. Your
cottage is so clean, so quiet, so well equipped....everything is here: including internet, all supplies, beach equipment...and your
assistance.
Well, thank you so much for this visit, again. Donna & Rob, Canada.

Thank you so much for having our whole family stay in your 2 lovely cottages, again! Both of these cottages are so warm and inviting...it feels like going on vacation and staying *at home*...except for the beaches, the volcanoes, the scuba diving, the fantastic scenery all around us, the friendly people and the perfect weather.
We LOVE the Big Island. Mahalo from all of the Sterling family! USA

Many thanks, again, for a wonderful stay at your lovely cottage last week! We had the best time! We are now safely back at home (in California) and are missing your wonderful hospitality, cottage and all its amenities (all our needs were fulfilled).
We hope our next visit to the Big Island will not take us so long to return. Warmest regards, Nancy & Andy, USA

Thank you very much for making our trip to the Big Island so pleasant and memorable. It took us almost a week to stop waking up and wishing we were still there. Hopefully we'll be able to visit again as soon as possible. We are definitively planning on coming back and of course you will be the first to know.
With warmest regards. Olga and Dejan. USA

Your cottage is
terrific. Fully furnished!! Unheard of... everything is here: beach chairs, coolers, body boards, mats, kayaks, beach towels, sun hats, tote bags, music & film on cds and dvds, and the kitchen has everything!! The basket of garden fruit and flowers were a terrific aloha welcome treat and truly appreciated. Mahalo lui noa and aloha to you both. We'll see you again on our next visit to the Big Island.

We loved the Big Island ...and were very happy with our cottage. We moved right in and felt like we lived here. We slept so well and felt refreshed each day. Thank you for making this a cosy home. Hope to see you again.

Thank you again for another wonderful stay here in beautiful "vog-free" South Kohala. We sure did appreciate Kamuela's blue sky and sunny days after the days of haze in Kona and Captain Cook where we began our vacation. Here, sleeping with the windows open, fresh air, and the gorgeous sunsets every evening will be missed when we return home. Barbara & James, England

November - December 2008
Thank you for a warm welcome and a wonderful stay in Hale Plumeria Cottage. This was our first week as newly weds and it was the perfect place! It has much more character than boring old hotels and condos. So private and quiet here. We also really appreciated the little touches in the cottage. And, having boogie boards, snorkle gear, beach towels, ice boxes, beach chairs, was just great....even you're filling the fridge with breakfast groceries for our (late night) arrival was much appreciated. If we make it all the way over from the United Kingdom again, we'll be sure to look you up for another stay.
Krishnan & Helen. London, England.
November - December 2008

Thanks a lot from Cornelia, Thomas and Leonian, Switzerland.
