Another perfect stay in paradise!

We stayed at August & Daiva’s piece of paradise last year and knew we had to come back! Not only is the property absolutely gorgeous but August and Daiva are the perfect hosts. The accommodations are perfect for a couple. They really thought of everything from chairs, beach towels, coolers and ice packs to snorkeling gear! There’s nothing like sitting on the private lanai having your morning coffee or in the evening sitting on the shared lanai and watching the sunset.. absolutely gorgeous!

our stay with August and Daiva

Our hosts were amazingly friendly and helpful with advice about things to see, routes to take, and with other topics that made our stay delightful. Their guest quarters were large, immaculate and well appointed. The bed was very comfortable. Internet access was good. The garden and view down the mountain and out to the sea were superb. We started evening and sleep with the songs of many tree frogs and awoke to the songs of birds. All 100% delightful. We are so glad that we booked our week on the big island's west side with August and Daiva.

Absolute Heaven!

I can’t thank August & Daiva enough for sharing their little piece of paradise with us. They are truly amazing hosts. Everything we could possibly need and more was provided. We spent 2 weeks total in Hawaii- one on Big Island and one week on Maui. The 4 days we spent at Hale Gediminas stand out as my favorite part of the whole trip. The gardens and views are absolutely stunning. My husband and I cannot wait to return.

Quiet stay up the hill

What a great spot! Away from the crowds in Kona and such a beautiful spot. The birds chattering throughout the day/night are beautiful to listen to. The outdoor kitchen had everything needed (a good knife and storage containers!) There was fresh water for us daily (house is on rain water) which was so nice. The bed was very comfortable The hosts were gracious and kind. Letting us know all the little spots to go to. They even have snorkle gear and beach chair's for guests! The drive way is steep, as are majority of the roads in this area, and turning the car around in the driveway was tight, but not a deterent. What a great stay we had here and would for sure stay again!

Relaxing in a garden paradise

The accommodations are set in a garden with flowers and birds galore. Much to explore and enjoy. The owners were very helpful with suggestions about half-day and day-trips, what beaches to check, where to eat, etc. Very restful and refreshing.

Incredible ocean view!

The hosts, August and Daiva are great. They were helpful with local info, they had beach and water equipment available to use(snorkels, beach chairs, boogie boards, cooler, etc.). The property is beautiful! Landscaping and that ocean view! The room and bathroom we're good, offered privacy and had an outdoor kitchen with everything you need to be able to cook meals if you wanted. If you know anything about Hawaii, conservation is important, with water and electricity. Remember, this isn't a hotel, so be prepared for that. Only issue that my wife and I had, no television in the room. Not a big deal, but just fyi. The property is in a rural area, but there are beaches and food choices not far from there. Overall, I would definitely stay there again if we're back on the big island. Highly recommend.

Un endroit et un accueil magnifiques

La chambre et la cuisine extérieure étaient impeccables. Le balcon avant, avec la vue sur la mer, les couchers de soleil et le magnifique jardin tropical aménagé, tout était parfait. L'accueil de nos hôtes, qui nous ont renseignés sur les meilleures choses à voir et sur l'histoire des îles. Notre seul regret, n'avoir pas réservé l'endroit pour un plus long moment.

Captain Cook, HI over Pebbles Beach

August and Daiva were incredible hosts. Extremely kind and thoughtful people that made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our time exploring the island, August has created a tropical garden on the property (he has owned for decades) and his care and attention to detail are both clear. We enjoyed it very much.
