- "This is my 4th time staying here. While I don't take advantage of all this place has to offer; I love everything about it. I like being away from the touristy part of the island. I like waking up to the sound of chickens. It is private when you want it but you can find conversation with Richard if you want it." - "It was very relaxing to be at such a nice farm. Everything was great." - "This little studio ohana is perfect for the couple who wishes to enjoy the quiet and beautiful setting. Within easy walking distance of Hawi, yet in this middle of an organic farm. The dog, cats and chickens all came to visit at one time or another. Great location for all those north end activities you want to do."

- "This property is lovely, from the home to the setting, from the sassy pony and goats to the incredible hosts Chris and Carol. Pictures simply don't do it justice, nor do all the rave reviews. It's simply perfect. The home is beautiful, and the second you walk in, you feel at home, not like a guest trespassing in someone else's house. Sitting on the porch and looking across the channel was such a pleasure that it made it hard to leave to go explore other parts of the island! As the sun sets and the stars come out, you feel like you can see every star in the sky all at once. And in the morning, after a quick rain shower, beautiful rainbows come out, and I swear the animals know this and pose under them so you can take a picture! I can't stress enough how kind, lovely and welcoming the hosts are; in fact, they are one of the best parts of staying here! Kohala Lodge is a place you want to rate as the best of the best and shout how awesome it is from the rooftops, but you also don't want to leave a review for because you want it to remain your special secret! My highest praise is that I would come back here again and again, and each time I wouldn't want to leave. We came in during our second week on the island, and thought we were already relaxed, but by the end of our first day at the Lodge, we truly were. It's got the magic power to help you totally unwind and find joy in your surroundings. Thanks for a lovely week and memories that we'll carry with us. We'll be back soon!"

Our comfortable home consists of three bedrooms, two and a half baths and is hidden away on a quiet lot, complete with many tropical flowers and fruit trees. We are only a short stroll to historic Hawi Town and a brief drive to many of the Big Island's most beautiful beaches and historic sights.

The house had plenty of room for our family of four, the bathroom, room set up is a little strange, but not a problem. We had a great time staying here." - "We were totally charmed by this roomy, airy and classic bungalow, so obviously well cared for. We were amazed by how fully and wonderfully equipped it was for guests. They thought of EVERYTHING! Gracious hosts and wonderfully helpful caretaker, to whom we are very grateful.

The whole apartment was spotless.

They were really accommodating, helpful and responsive, all the way from the booking up until check out. They really helped us feel like we were on vacation.

I had the amazing opportunity to travel to Big Island for a week and staying on this property could be the highlight of my own trip. So cozy, so privately mine, so beautiful. I highly recommend staying here and meeting Donna and Kevin because they were so helpful and wonderful and communicative to help me have the greatest week. Best recs from the hosts: Snorkel at Mahu Kona (best snorkeling I had all trip), drive up to Pololu and stop at Fresh Off The Grill for a poke bowl/nachos and then hike down to Pololu and sit and listen to the waves roll through the black rocks. Wow. Big Island is such a special place and so is Donna and Kevin's property. Please please please get out there and stay with these wonderful hosts and their dogs. Catch the sunset and say hi to the neighbors mini horse. Missing this place every day and plan to return! Mahola, Donna & Kevin"

- "Miles Away cottage was absolutely perfect! We could not have asked for a better location or a more beautiful setting. We ate every meal on the front porch under a gorgeous huge tree with a view out to the ocean. The house is fully equipped with everything you would need! Christine is so sweet and helpful and is the perfect hostess. We miss our little gecko friends and especially Lucky the duck now that we are home. You cannot go wrong booking this place."

- "Our nearly two-week stay at the Cowboy House at Puakea Ranch was a truly delightful experience for our family group of 6 with ages ranging from 5 to 75. The cottage is comfortable and well-equipped, and the swing and hammock were really popular with my granddaughter. The lush farm grounds, the ocean view, and the beautiful natural pool provide a tranquil setting for a longish stay, while still being close enough to Hawi township for grocery and crafts shopping and great espresso coffee. The farm animals - especially Romeo the goat - were a huge hit. Our stay was made all the more memorable by the friendly, responsive and always helpful approach of the property manager. I highly recommend the Puakea Ranch for a relaxing family holiday in beautiful and peaceful surrounds under a starry sky."
