Pat -
Don and I just got back after a wonderful time on Hawaii. Being able
to stay at your place for the first 3 days was exactly what we needed
getting ready for the rest of the family to arrive!
You have a beautiful place, and you were wonderfully helpful during
our stay.
Thank you again!

| We were ever so lucky to have found Patricia's lovely Villa. Patricia and Dick have gone to great lengths to provide a peaceful and charming environment. You will fall asleep to the chirping of friendly geckos and wake to the singing of the birds. They are located far enough back from Alii drive that you do not hear the rumble of traffic, but are close enough to walk to the beach. Dinner is just a short drive away. The studio is simply charming with a bed so comfortable you might never choose to leave. Trust me, the banana bread is reason enough to stay. We can not wait to return. |

We loved our stay at this luxury studio in an exotic setting.
Waking up to the songs of birds and the warm tropical breezes was just what we
needed. It is a quiet place with wonderful amenities. We enjoyed fixing our
meals and eating poolside with other guests. The owners are wonderful and
friendly. We would definately return to this property.

WOW!! We had the best vacation ever!! We had a
wonderful stay at the Villa. The perfect place for us.
This place had everything we needed and more. We
are early to rise early to bed so the quiet was great.
We miss our morning and sunset walks to the
beach. Hearing the birds sing, the smells of the
tropics, the sun on our face. We will be back! Thank
you Dick for the extras too!! The fresh fruit, fishing
advice, just sitting and chatting with us. Patricia we
must meet next time. Many Blessings!! Deb and

| This was a wonderful place to stay while we relaxed in the warmth of the Big Island. It is new, clean, tastefully decorated and very reasonable in cost. We loved the pool kitchen and most nights, enjoyed grilling fresh fish for our meals there. There was usually fresh island fruit from the neighbors which was delicious! Also, it is extremely quiet there though quite close to Alii Drive. Loved hearing all the birds in the mornings. It was perfect for us! Thanks! |

What a wonderful oasis. Close to everything Kona has to offer but away from the noise. Great hosts, beautiful accommodations! The freshly picked papaya from the property was a perfect start to our day.
We have been to Kona many times and this trip was special because of where we stayed. Would we stay there again? Absolutely! The only thing we would do differently is to stay longer.
Thank you to our hosts, Dick and Pat |

| I was hesitant to say anything good about the Villa. Reason: If too many people found out what a slice of paradise this is, there might be too much competition for my next stay!! Seriously, this property is more than what it claims to be. I have lived in Hawai'i and can say firsthand that staying here will put you in the "Aloha Spirit" the minute you go through the gates. Booking here is a can't miss proposition. |

We stayed at this wonderful place.
Patricia and Dick are very kind and honest people. The decoration of the Villa is very tasteful and romantic.
If we return to Hawaii we'll certainly stay here again... |

| This place is absolutely wonderful! We stayed for a week... our hosts were incredibly nice and always available for questions/advice about pretty much everything; yet, we our experience was very private. The studio suites are clean and well equipped. The outdoor kitchen is a huge plus if you want to cook... huge gas BBQ also available. The pool is small, but perfect for catching some sun and taking intermittent dips to stay cool. The entire house is beautiful, very quiet and well located to beaches, restaurants etc. Really great for couples... All in all, very highly recommended. |

| This property is a wonderful getaway spot for visitors and locals alike. It is as beautiful in person as it is in the photos but they can't capture how quiet and relaxing it is. There is no noise to speak of either by the pool during the day or in the suite at night. It's so quiet, you hear the birds all day long. The amenities and welcome basket are all first class with a very comfortable bed and plenty of soft,thick towels both inside and out. The owners are friendly and helpful yet really give you all of the privacy you could ever ask for. We are already trying to find another chunk of time that we can spend there. |

| You will not find a more peacful setting anywhere. We recently spent a week in this wonderful guest house. The beautiful gift basket provided gave us such a welcomed feeling. We left California exhausted but returned totally rested. We attribute that largely to the time spent in our guest quarters. We will always treasure the quiet mornings spent reading by the beautiful pool and the relaxing setting that this villa provides. It is a wonderful contrast to the busyness of large hotels. Our time there was an incredible blessing and one we will always treasure. We highly recommend this to everyone looking for a wonderful, peacful get away. |

My husband and I are on our honeymoon and were
so thrilled to find a private, beautiful, relaxing place
to stay. The decor is fabulous and so calming and
after staying in 5-star hotels in Kuaui we would
prefer this any day. Having a kitchen, pool, TV and
DVD player makes you feel at home. We will be
back anytime we stay on the Big Island. |

| This is one place you'll never want to leave. Perfect location, beautiful setting, and everything you'll need all wrapped up in one spot and whispering ~ relax. We especially enjoyed experimenting with local flavors in the kitchen and then dining poolside. Private and clean, clean, clean! You'll be tuned into island time as soon as you arrive. We'll be back! |

A slice of paradise too good to be true. This luxury
unit is a quiet oasis right off Alii Drive, close to our
favorite snorkel beach, and right between
downtown Kona and Keauhou Bay. We've stayed
here three times and plan to return soon.
We didn't want to leave the beautiful pool with
outdoor kitchen and dining area steps away.
Our unit was decorated better than any four star
resort on the island! And clean, clean, clean...
See you soon, Aloha. |

| This place is so great that I've been there 3 times already. It is quiet, beautiful, clean, and wonderfully decorated. The pool and lanai area are very tranquil. The amenities just can't be beat. There is just something special about arriving and having a well thought out Welcome Basket there to greet you. This place isn't a business it is a lifestyle of hospitality lived out by the owners. I can't believe that the price of these studios are less per night than the cheap hotels in downtown Kailua-Kona. Bring your friends and have a wonderful vacation. |

I give it a "10"! The location can't be beat. I stayed 9
days and hated to leave. Clean, clean, clean and a
welcome basket that you just don't see, even in 5 star
hotels. Actually, this was better than a condo or hotel
by far. Quiet, inviting and close to everything. I have
it reserved for 16 nights in the fall. |
