What a fabulous, wonderful week at you charming home., thank you for sharing it with us. ..A true hightlight of our trip was our second to last night, the boys went swimming with two HUGE Manta Rays!
-Peggy P. San Jose, CA
Thanks so much for an awsome experience. Your home is situated ideally - sunsets and snorkeling are wonderful off your deck. The highlight of our vacation was snorkeling with dolphins at the local beach...we will treasure this for the rest of our lives.
-Susan and Henry V. Lexington, MA
I can see no reason to leave here (aside from the other guests banging on the door to get in). We have been to Kona many times and stayed in many other locations - This has been the absolute best!
-Sharon and Andy San Francisco, CA
It has been an idyllic week at your lovely house....Your house is perfect for a family vacation, we feel as if we had just entered the house of a friend who had left us everything we needed - a gorgeous setting, great books and music, games and a well stocked kitchen.
-David W. Baltimore, MD
Thanks so much for sharing your home with us. It has been a most rewarding and relaxing time. The view, the surf, the sunsets, the snorkeling will long be remembered.

Wouldn't it be nice if we didn't have to leave?? Loved the privacy-serenity on the lanai!
-Nick T. Brighton, CO
Having never been to Hawaii, I have found paradise right here in this home on this island. The house is perfect with all anyone needs to survive in this garden.
-Tracey M. Oakland, CA
Once again, a wonderful time at your house - many thanks Ben! During our stay we occasionally left the lanai to go diving, bird watching and volcano watching. It got a little tiring having to look at all those humpbacks, spinner dolphins, manta rays, and colorful fish!
-Peter and Joan Seattle, WA
I'm so glad we found you on the internet. This house far exceeds our expectations. Our first visit to the Big Island was an incredible experience.

The back deck was my favorite site on the island. Whales to the left, exotic birds straight ahead, dolphins to the right.
