"Enjoyed our stay. The condo was well stocked for the beach. There was a lot of space for the ten of us. The kitchen was spacious. It is in a great location, close to the pool. We would definitely stay there again."
"Absolutely superb. Randy thought of everything to make this a quiet, friendly, comfortable place to stay. A quiet retreat. It put a dent in our tourist activities, though, because we didn’t want to leave! It’s good to do some grocery shopping before you get there, as there are minimal food options in the immediate area."
"This has been one of the most special places I’ve ever been to. The sounds of the forest at night are surreal and can touch your soul. I’ve only spent one night at the cabin but I will never forget my time here.
The cabins are super cute, clean, and comfortable. The short path to the lodge with bathrooms is marked by some torches on the ground at night. The sky cleared up in the middle of the night so I could enjoy the stars while walking to the lodge. AMAZING."
Luxury Oceanfront B-n-B Suite Gated Cliffside Estate - Banyan - Beach 10m walk
10/10 Excellent
"We had such a nice time staying in our Hawaiian Celebration! We booked the Bantam Suite (which looks upon the incredible heritage banyan tree on the property), but when we arrived we were offered the Carriage House due to a cancellation – we took it, and it gave us a kitchen, a LOT of space, and ocean views (and lovely sunrises) right from the bed. The property is so clean, well-cared for, and with breathtaking views – we wandered, relaxing in the many lovely outdoor areas, and enjoying the dogs, horses, ducks, tortoise and other animals on the property... The hosts are so kind and interesting, we really enjoyed interacting with them, and they had SO many cool, fun, and fascinating suggestions for walks and activities nearby! Highly recommended!"
Enjoy a trip to Waipio Na'alapa Trail and popular activities such as snorkelling in Waimea. Stroll along the beautiful beaches in this relaxing area or visit its top-notch restaurants.
