Best brunch in town! This unique outdoor restaurant has quality food and amazing coffee. The owner, Crystal, has perfected stuffed french toast with homemade whip cream.
If you're lucky, their cute border collie puppy will be there to greet you!

Best Poke I've ever had. If you want fresh caught, local fish, this is your spot. Also known as Sun Dried Specialties, Kona Grill House serves fresh caught fish, delicious crab cakes, and incredible desserts to-go. You've gotta check them out!
* Be sure to check if they are open! South Kona business hours are weird.*

Make a reservation because this delicious restaurant is always booked out. We LOVE their ramen but they have a wide variety of delicious cuisine. This is the perfect stop after a long hike in Waimea or site seeing along the north coast.

Planning a trip to Hilo? This is the perfect stop for lunch or dinner. I ALWAYS stop here when we are Hilo side because I love their food and service so much. One guest told me that the chef came out to chat with them for a while about the meals they ordered! Such a wonderful vide and delicious food.

Farm to table cuisine. Wonderful food and staff. We love coming here for date nights! The food is reliably delicious and the location is great. Right off Ali'i drive next to shops and the water.

Sightseeing
My favorite hike on the Big Island. This valley will take your breath away (literally). These stunning views come with the price of a steep hike down and up hill. Fortunately, the hike is pretty short and very doable for just about anyone.
I recommend planning to hike back out of the valley by 3pm so that you can have dinner on your way back through Hawi. Restaurants close very early in that area, so plan accordingly with food and water.

Vast fine white sand, turquoise blue water, and perfect for boogie boards. What more could you ask for?! This popular spot has plenty of parking but I recommend going early, to avoid the crowds. Wear plenty of REEF SAFE sunscreen and bring an umbrella. This beach has very few shade spots to hide under.

I could get lost in this botanical garden for HOURS! Not only does this place feature hundreds of species of tropical plants, but the ocean view will leave you speechless. This is my favorite place to bring family and friends who visit us. It is also close to some amazing waterfalls, so plan to make a whole day of it!
Akaka Falls & Rainbow Falls are great stops to make along the way.
