About the host
Hosted by Susanna Billings
Since 1984, we've traveled to Hawaii and the Big Island's Puna district since 1988. While we love our home base in California's Central Coast, we both are most comfortable in Hawaii. Susanna was born in China and has traveled the world for work and play. Her passion is food and wine and her kitchens reflect her tastes. John began his business in San Luis Obispo in 1973 and still shops the world for home furnishings for indoors and outdoor. That business, Daylight Home & Patio, is widely known for quality and selection second to none. John has designed 3 homes and all reflect function and comfort with a classic sense of style.
Susanna is the manager and booking contact for Kehena Makai. She is always connected and responds to questions, concerns and issues no matter what time zone or continent she is in. We love travel, love meeting people, entertaining friends and Hawaii the Big Island is one of our favorite destinations in the world. We love the air, the sky, the rain, the ocean, the fish, the people, the plants, the flowers, the animals, the lava, the passion, food and drinks, and the Hawaiiana.

Why they chose this property
Kehena subdivsion has ocean front lots and jungle, unlike other neighborhoods and Kehena Makai has a low key appeal. We like that it looks like pre-war Hawaii and blends into the neighborhood. We bought the house in 2005 and it had just been built in 2001. We loved the old Hawaiian feel of the place and felt it deserved to be more finished. We added walls, porcelain tile floors, woven bamboo ceiling, sliding doors, ocean view showers and an up graded kitchen with rain forest marble counters. The kitchen/dining/seating main room has a 17' peak and exposed beams. Ceiling fans are seldom needed as the many windows and trade winds keep the house as cool or warm as you'd like. The famous Black Sand Beach is a few minutes walk away. The Volcano National Park is 1 hour away. If you like to drive along the uncultivated coast line you can do it along one of the most beautiful drives in the world to the end of the road at Pohoiki. If you like to see traditional and historical hula cultures there's the Merry Monarch Festival at Easter. This is Puna, the real Hawaii.
What makes this property unique
With the live lava flowing in the nearby stopped in July 2018, the air quality has never been as nice as it is now. The trade winds blow over 2500 miles of open ocean.
