Our stay here could not have gone any better. Susie and Lester are wonderful hosts. They go above and beyond to ensure your stay is as comfortable as possible. There was plenty of room for my wife and two kids, ages 11 and 9. The apartment was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The location was fantastic. It provided such a beautiful and peaceful place for us to rest and relax from our daily excursions. The kids loved the pool. My wife and I enjoyed sitting on the shaded deck while taking in the beautiful grounds and scenery. They genuinely care that your stay is great, but also take the time to offer some wonderful tips and advice about things to do and see on the island. We absolutely would stay there again and strongly recommend it to any future travelers considering it. Don’t miss out out on this slice of paradise!
Wow! Thank you Cid and Smitha for such a wonderful review. You know we loved meeting your family and being able to provide a home base for you as you explored this fantastic island. It was wonderful to see the kids enjoy the pool after a day of activity. We would love to have you come back anytime! Blessings from us.
My aim is to go back next year
Thank you, Thomas! We always enjoy hosting you. We hope to see you again next year.
This was our second stay and it was just as amazing as the first time! Suzie and Lester are treasures that will make your stay so comfortable, you will remember it forever.
Mahalo Chloe for such a wonderful review and kind words! It was a delight to host you again. We always want to provide positive experiences for the people that choose to stay at our place. Hope to see you again!
We really enjoyed our stay in Susies and Les House. The both are so wonderful people and the house is full of little nice details. You also find all the little stuff for a wonderful stay. (herbs, oil, sauces, shampoo, books, cooling boxes for the beach, also a Flashlight for visiting the lava tubes and so much more) We are on a world travel tour - so we have not so many things with us, but we missed absolutely nothing.

Aloha Marianna and Gerfried and Ben and Cataleya! Thank you so much for taking time to write such a wonderful review while you continue on your world travel tour. What an amazing experience you are giving the children....and yourselves! We are so glad we could be part of that experience... and a positive part. As hosts we want our guests to feel completely at home and equipped with things they need as they explore the Big Island. You were excellent guests, and we really enjoyed chatting with you and hearing about your travels. A hui hou! (until we meet again)
