| We very much enjoyed the amazing view from the large lanai of this very clean and quiet apartment. The owner very generously lends his kayaks and tanks and weights for diving. We were delighted the house was 2 or 3 munutes walk from the beach. The reef off the beach was great for scuba and snorkeling (probably less so when the ocean is rougher.) This is the perfect away from it all place! |

| Perfect peace undisturbed by sounds of trains, planes or automobiles was what we found here. We spent hours on the lanai enjoying the sound of waves, bird song, the scent of frangipani, the antics of the geckos, and the sunsets. On the days when we chose to be more active, we found great snorkelling, hiking and kayaking nearby. Volcanoes National Park is a longer drive through charming, sleepy little plantation villages. Sam has made the apartment extremely comfortable and keeps it in excellent order. THis is a lovely place from which to explore the Kona Coast - thank you Sam! |

| We enjoyed the stay at Sam`s place a lot and spend almost all mornings and evenings on the lanai with the scenic ocean view. Beautiful snorkeling and diving was easy accessible and we even went out for a short kayak-tour. Sam was very kind and helpful and we would definitely stay at his place again!

Aloha Sam,
Thanks again for letting us use your rental unit. We have really enjoyed our time here and staying at Divers Paradise Cove was a big part of that. Your place is so peaceful and calm and we really enjoyed our time on the lanai watching the wildlife. We saw birds, mongoose and even a whale. The entire vacation has been a blast with the extra pleasure of being able to spend some time with our son. Once again, thanks for everything.
Mahalo,
Tom & Dawn

Sitting on the verandah of Sam's Place, the rest of the world seems to have temporarily evaporated as your eyes rest on the ocean trying to spot a wandering whale.
Tucked onto the hillside, Sam has a great little apartment ... just perfect for two.
The kitchen is well-equipped, the living room is comfy, there's two showers, there's a couple of TVs to keep you entertained... what more could you need? Ah, perhaps a store and a restaurant. Those are about 20 minutes away on a picturesque road... which is fine, because you see, we were desperately seeking seclusion. And found it at Sam's.
If you'd like to know any more thoughts from us, please contact the booking agent who will send your queries on.
Cheers,
Cary and Karen

My wife, Karen, and I just spent a week at Sam's Place. And what a week it was: Watching whales wander past in the afternoon, hearing them splash and blow at night; enjoying lounging on the verandah catching some rays while reading pulp fiction; lying in bed at sunrise watching the view materialize... The apartment is just the right size for a couple and well laid out. If you're desperately seeking seclusion, with supermarkets and restaurants 20 minutes away, Sam's is the place for your vacation. (And, no, nobody paid me to write this rave...)
If you'd like more impressions, send a query to the booking agent.
Cheers,
Cary and Karen |

| We loved the place! It was nice and quiet and there was a great view out of every window. You can see the ocean from your bed! There was everything we needed and more--stuff in the kitchen for making snacks and, of course, Kona coffee, not to mention all the gear for kayaking, diving etc. I definitely would stay here again. It was exactly what we are looking for and there was definitely room for a few more people there (it was just the two of us). |
