Linda could not have been nicer. We received a warm and friendly greeting upon arrival. Once inside the most gorgeous arrangements of tropical flowers from the surrounding garden and fresh fruit were left for us to enjoy. Attentive without being obtrusive. A unique cottage with lots of individual spaces to spread out - each with its own separate entrance to the outside. Lovely Indonesian furnishings and artwork reflecting Linda’s travels around the world along with an evening serenade of frog song created the peaceful retreat we were seeking for our stay on Hawaii Island. Rustic in the sense that the tap water is not potable and must be filtered prior to use and a fair amount of mosquitoes present to contend with all the nightly rains during our stay late July-early Aug. Citronella candles and spray were provided. We adapted with mosquito nets for sleeping. Hale Meow Meow is an indoor/outdoor experience in a truly special and beautiful setting surrounded by lush and spectacular gardens.

First thing, the host of this property is very hospitable. She is on the same property as you and will answer any and all questions. Secondly, the property is very unique. If you are not interested in being part of nature then this place isn’t for you. The water is on a catchment system and you or Linda need to get filtered water from her place as needed. The property is beautiful but everything is constantly damp. There are also geckos all over the inside of the house (they won’t bother you) which took us by surprise. There is no washer or dryer in the house either, so keep that in mind if you are depending on those items. Also, there is no microwave which is unusual in today’s world. All in all, we will never forget this place! If this is the type of accommodation you are looking for, then this will be perfect for you. If you are looking for AC and other high end amenities, I’d suggest staying elsewhere. Finally, the property doesn’t have a paved driveway. It is grass and a high clearance vehicle isn’t necessary, but would have been helpful.

Linda is a very nice host. When we arrived, some fruits from her garden were waiting for us. The sunsets are beautiful also the garden! We can recommend staying in Linda's house:)

Linda is a wonderful host, so friendly, helpful and provides fresh fruit and vegetables from the lush garden. Staying at Hale Meow Meow is quite unique with some aspects that did not come through when reading the description and reviews: The cottage has almost no glas windows to close. Windows are screened (only). This is great if you want to be close to nature. But the higher humidity and cooler temperatures can make it feel uncomfortable at night. This maybe depends on the season. Also, the hwy is very close and naturally you can hear vehicles driving past. You cannot see the hwy from the cottage though. During night nature comes with a cacophony of frogs and crickets. For someone coming from the city the obnoxious sounds can feel overwhelming at the beginning. The mornings and days are so beautiful when the sun is bringing warm and light. Interior is basic but very clean. The master bed is a bit short for taller people. Linda warned that hot water can be murky. This happened to us when we tried to fill the bathtub. Internet is available but quite slow (better enjoy the great view instead of a Netflix movie). Overall, the cottage is really beautiful and scenic with a camping feeling to it.

We had a delightful stay in the cottage in Linda's Botanical Gardens! The lush grounds were amazing with many tropical flowers and abundant fruit trees. What more could we ask for when Linda delivered fresh fruit from those trees every morning! Nice views of the ocean from every room of the cottage. The mediation room was an additional nice experience. Everything was clean and comfortable and the kitchen well -supplied. We enjoyed spending time with the resident geckos. :)
