Peaceful sanctuary

Our party was a total of 6 adults and 4 teens/children. There were plenty of rooms for us to sleep & we really enjoyed the outdoor spaces & the common room. It was hot/humid while we were there & although there were ceiling fans and some portable fans, it was still uncomfortable at times especially in the 2 upper rooms. There are sugar ants if you leave certain foods out. We put most of the food in the fridge. There are also geckos that roam around in the common area. We did not mind this. Our family loved the cats/dog on the property & they are friendly. Owners Caleb & Mark were responsive & welcoming. They live on the property in a separate home. The beach is clothing optional & both paths to the actual beach are a bit difficult & can be slippery. The surf is a little rough, but some in our party were able to get past the waves and enjoy a nice swim in clear water. We had 3 cars which we parked outside of the gated property. There was an incident where one of the cars was vandalized & the gas line was cut. Fortunately after that, we were able to park the cars inside the gate. I know this has nothing to do with the owners, but it was a bit of a hassle to have to return the rental & then deal with insurance during a vacation. We went to Hilo a few times & enjoyed shopping and lagoons there. Kahena is a more quiet side of the big island, but there is a grocery store not too far away. The kitchen had everything we needed. Beds were nice & plenty of towels.
