Thank you for your kind review.When our guests are happy (almost always) it makes us happy. Life is good.

Dear Audrey and Christopher, Thank you for your very kind review. I'm not sure I agree totally with all your comments, but I do know that we do the best we can for our guests. By the way, I was proud of you for traveling to the US given your little English. Well done !

Merci beaucoup. Ce fut un plaisir de vous accueillir avec votre fille. Nous envoyons nos meilleurs voeux.

Thank you for staying with us. Looking forward to seeing you again. We always email directions to driving here as GPS is not reliable in rural Hawai'i, and advise guests that if they attempt to reach us by GPS they will get lost.

Sanghee! The pleasure was all ours. : ) I'm sorry we didn't know it was your 20th wedding anniversary...we would have done something a little more special for the two of you. : ) Thank you for always smiling & being appreciative. Also, delighted you enjoyed our breakfasts & all your experiences on the Big Island! Mahalo to you and your beautiful family. I hope we meet again someday.

Thank you, Santi. Happy, but not surprised, that Steve and Barb did a fine job while we were in Cambodia (working with street kids). Breakfast can be tricky given the differences in taste among our guests from around the world, but after making 20 years of breakfasts, I think we've learned what works. Our mainstay are the tropical fruits we grow on the farm. Very best wishes your way, Santi, Kurt

I agree with you, Christian, regarding what we call our "Jungle Road". Most are in awe, a few are in fear. This is a small segment of what was once the scenic route around the island. Those who travel this 200 yards will see a great assortment of the islands plants. At night, they weil be serenated by frogs. Thanks for your review, Christian, and if/when you return you'll be greeeted with open arms.

Thank you for your very kind review.

Such a nice review. Thank you. We are INDEED fortunate to do what we do. We have only three rooms at the BnB, and I think that's ideal for interaction (if that's what the guests want). This time we had one Berkeley grad, Harvard grad, and a Princeton grad, all in different fields Such interesting, stimulating interaction. Sometimes we have artists, computer people, and even wonderful "normal" people. After doing this for some twenty years, we've learned how to make the most of our guests' time, nature does the rest. There's truly a vicarious pleasure in what we do.

It's always nice to have Japanese folks stay with us. (You guys are sooooo polite and considerate.) Besides that, it makes my wife feel (a little bit) like she's back home in Japan. Thanks for staying with us.

Thanks for staying with us, Camille. It was a pleasure hosting you. Glad you liked the "jungle" road and for assuring other guests that any type car will have no problem (besides, it's only about 200 yards long). Hope to see you again some day.

Thank you for your kind review, Lisa. And thanks also for the photos. It will be very nice to see you again some day. Meanwhile, stay healthy, stay happy.

Rebecca and her husband were great guests! We loved having them stay with us, and would absolutely welcome them again. Highly recommended, they were great communicators and left the room in perfect shape. We enjoyed our conversations with them, as did other guests. Mahalo.

I think Kana and I are among the luckiest people in the universe. The wonderful people that stay with us from around the world are, truly, a joy to host. Thank you for the glowing review, Vismaya !

Many thanks for your kind review, Steven. Please know that it was an absolute pleasure hosting you folks. Hoping we'll get the chance to meet again some day.

Thank you for your kind review, Teodor. I'd strongly disagree about the need for 4x4 getting here. Less than one out of fifty get one, maybe fewer. Most people think it's a beautiful, short, (only about 200 yards) drive.

Thank you so much for the great review. It was a pleasure meeting you both! Enjoy the rest of your adventure! Best, Mary and Joe

Thank you so much the positive feedback on your stay. We enjoyed meeting you and hope you will make your way back to visit us sometime in the future. Sincerely, Kurt and Kanae

Thanks for your kind words, Kevin. We enjoyed your stay with us !

Jeanne and Mark were wonderful guests. I found myself putting off farm work so that I could weasel out a few more minutes of delightful conversation. Just a joy. For us, it's the interaction with people like this that gives us the greatest reward for what we do as innkeepers.

You don't know how nice it makes us feel when we read an account like yours of time spent at the Edge. It means a lot to us. Mahalo nui !

Thank you, Cindy, for your kind review. It was very nice indeed hosting you folks. Wonderful guests ! Sending very best wishes your way.

Thanks Ryan, for your kind review. It was a pleasure hosting you, and thanks also for passing on all the information about college counseling that may be relevant to our daughter's future. Interesting stuff, and much appreciated !

Such a wonderful stay with Larissa and her daughter, Lisa. Some people are just so complimentary and so positive that there's absolutely a vicarious pleasure in hosting them and that makes our "work" nothing but a joy. So it was with Larissa and Lisa. Mahalo nui !

Thank you, Roni, for pointing out the things that displeased you. Our utmost aim is, always, to have happy, satisfied guests. Interestingly, this has never happened before in the enjoyable twenty years of operating a bed and breakfast. (Makes me wonder if perhaps your roommate used the bathroom without your knowledge.) Each of our three bedrooms has a private bath and guests have never, to the best of my knowledge, used the bathroom of another. Regarding sheets and towels, again, we've never had this complaint. The guest tells us, we smile and replace them with fresh ones. Again, sorry for your bad experience with us.

Nice reviews like this, knowing that our place and our way of running The Beautiful Edge of the World are appreciated, make everything we do worthwhile. How grateful we are to be able to live the aloha spirit and to meet such nice, often interesting, people from around the world. Mahalo nui!

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us. Our Budget Room was the only one left when you booked. Yes, no TV, but you saved twenty or thirdty dollars a night. (You were also welcome to use the big TV in the living room.) Not sure about your comment regarding the final portion of the road to our property, but I know everybody is different. Best wishes, Kurt

Thank you, Samiksha, for your kind review. It was a pleasure meeting/hosting you folks !

Would be very nice to see you again. Although the road (200 yards) is entirely safe, I can see how first time visitors may think of it as adventurous because it is so different. Perfect road to the "Edge of the World"?

Thanks, Patrick. Your review is so nice it makes ME want to stay there. Woops, I already do. It will be a pleasure to host you again some day. Best wishes,Kurt and Kana

Your comment about the breakfast made Kana (the chef) happy and me I(the farmer who grew the fruits) proud. I'm also happy you wrote what you did about the road. Some comments by others make guests unnecessarily worrisome about the road. To the rest of us, it's a beautiful experiene.. Only goes to show tht we're all different.

Thank you, Suzzettle for your kind review. You were a wonderful guest.
