This beautiful, luxurious, and stunning property has to be seen to be believed. Not only is it located between two of Hawaii’s best beaches, Hapuna and Mauna Kea, it is an architectural stunner that has everything you want/need on this, or any island. Their were nine of us—8 adults and one child—but it never felt crowded, unlike our next house on Kauai. Our kids took just one field trip, to the volcano park over near Hilo. After that, everyone knew there was no reason to go anywhere...we had our own private resort. Everyone of the rooms, which are huge, open up to the ocean. The master bedroom is upstairs, with a commanding view of the entire area. The kitchen was huge, and had everything you need. The house sound system was easy to use to play music in every room. I especially liked the two buttons in the master bedroom that allowed me to turn all the house lights on, or off. Finally, the pool, an actual heated infinity pool in your backyard! In addition, the host did everything she could to make our stay enjoyable, including getting the ice maker fixed. One could grumble that the TVs were outdated (true), but who cares? Who wants to watch TV in a house like this? Yes, this house is expensive, but it’s worth it, and we would definitely stay there again.
