Kevin,
My family rented your condo in Hawaii this last week and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. My wife and two of our five boys stayed in the condo. We were there because my oldest son was married at the Hilton hotel. He is from Texas, is serving in the Navy, stationed in Japan and married a wonderful girl form Australia...that's truly an international alliance! Ten of her relatives from Melbourne attended the wedding. Your condo was perfect for us to host them one night to get to know them better. They were all impressed with the place. It was so large and relaxing. The alternative would have been at a hotel room which was too impersonal. The condo was also a convenient location to get to most sites on the island. We heavily explored the north half of the island. The little town of Hawi is wonderful. The restaurant there is great...don't miss the homemade ice cream shop across the street! The King's shops were so convenient for us to shop and eat. We spent a lot of time in Kona at the tuxedo shop, restaurants, the reception dinner and the souvenir shops. Your condo was also convenient to the airport, since I served as shuttle driver for the wedding party from Australia and Japan.

We had a wonderful time in Hawaii. Thank you so much for opening your condo to us for the week. We will certainly recommend your condo to anyone we know that wants to visit Hawaii!

Dear Mari and Kevin,
Just had to write a quick email and tell you how wonderful your condo was to stay in!! If you ever get
someone who may want to rent but isn't sure about it, give them our phone number [note: call us and we can give you the phone number] and tell them to call us. It was better than we expected. . . .Well, thanks again. We sure had a
great time and will call you if we ever go back to that island!

Hi-

Just a quick note to let you know that everything at your condo is great. The late arrival check-in was
smooth. Your condo is perfect. No one wants to leave it. Everything we need is here and you trip plans are
great. First day was the dolphin swim and yesterday was the volcano. Today its snorkeling and Halloween.

Bye for now and thanks again

Dear Kevin,

Our family enjoyed our stay at your condo very much. We all had a wonderful time and hated to leave. I hope we left it in a satisfactory condition. My little granddaughter delighted in finding the geckos all around and all the beautiful birds on the grass were highly entertaining.

Thanks,

Dear Mr. Staker,
I wanted to let you know how much my two daughters and I enjoyed our stay at yours and Mari's condominium. It was very well appointed with everything we could possibly need, as well as being conveniently located to all kinds of things to do. We were especially impressed with the quality of the beds and bedding. They were sooooooo comfortable, it was hard to get going everyday!
We enjoyed dinner at The Kamuela Provision Co. at the Hilton (sat outside, and although it was extremely windy, we enjoyed a lovely sunset) Also went to Roy's at Kings Shops on our last night. It was wonderful food and service, however an extremely noisy place. (Not for the faint of heart)
We visited several beaches, as well as driving up to Waimea and on down to Hilo one day. We stopped at Akaka Falls and Rainbow Falls (many photo opportunities). My oldest daughter was gung -ho to go on a Manta Ray dive and so she did. She used Manta Ray Dives and was happy with them. Anyway, aside from a torrential rain at the airport when we left, we had a wonderful time. We can highly recommend your condo to our friends.
Thank-you so very much.

Dear Kevin,

We have intended to e-mail you regarding our stay in the condo last December. It was a perfect stay and the condo was very comfortable/ great location/outstandingly equipped kitchen/beautiful sunsets.. etc. In short, it could not have more ideal for us. If anyone from this area inquires and you need an enthusiastic recommendation., do give them our phone or e-mail.

Sincere thanks for the wonderful stay last December.
With all good wishes,

This was our third visit to the Big Island. It's as beautiful as ever. This time we discovered more great beaches, explored the fishponds around the Mauna Lani Resort and met the cat ladies near the petroglyphs trail there. We kayaked and snorkeled Kealakekua Bay, went star gazing at the Mauna Kea visitor center, snorkeled with the Manta Rays (fantastic!). We visited Hawi and ate at the Bamboo, took the tour of the Natural Energy Lab (very interesting and we had a great guide) ate with the geckos at the Angel Cafe in Kealakekua, snorkeled at the Place of Refuge and stayed after dark to see the red lava flow at Volcano. And there's always more to come back for. We'll be back. And we'd love to stay at your condo again.

Thank you so very much for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful place in Kona. Everything was extremely nice and clean and we just loved our time there.

Hopefully, we will have the opportunity to return to Kona soon. I will keep your information and contact you if we can make another trip to Kona.

Thanks again!

Aloha Kevin,

What a great place you have!! My family and I were blown away by the view from the lanai, the roominess, all the features, and the amenities you provide to your guest. I have already told many of my friends and associates that, should they visit the Big Island, your condo is the place to stay. Everything you have posted on your website describing the condo, the surroundings, amenities, and things to do is absolutely accurate. You and Mari obviously take a great deal of pride in what you offer your guests. Again, a great experience that further enhanced our reason for being there - our daughter's wedding.

Mahalo,
