1 Bedroom Apartment in Honaunau-Napoopoo, Captain Cook

Everything you might need to enjoy an exciting or relaxing vacation right by the ocean at the beautiful and world famous, "Kealakekua Bay'.
This private location is perfect for adventuring around our quaint neighborhood, with quiet walks, hiking trails, or exploring further around the island. When you return back to enjoy this safe, secure, cozy space and unwind to the sounds of nature.
I also have assorted snorkel gear available, (if interested, please ask about my bicycle)!
Located at the Manini Beach sub-division, only a 2 minute walk to some of the most incredible snorkeling in the world.... the wonderful Kealakekua Bay! Enjoying crystal clear water on a calm day, filled with colorful reef fish and green sea turtles, theses are some of the beautiful sights you'll experience. Watching the fish and underwater sea life may clear your mind of most thoughts as you discover the peacefulness of snorkeling. Enjoy a Kayak or paddle board on calm days... You may see Dolphins or Manta rays in deeper water and in the winter months there is always a chance of seeing Humpback whales! Please follow all the DLNR rules and keep a safe distance.
My studio has a small kitchenette area in the great big space, with a full size refrigerator, induction stove top, blender, coffee maker, electric tea kettle and outside there is a full size BBQ with a side burner. There is enough space to prepare and enjoy a delicious, quality breakfast, lunch or dinner.
The outside covered patio is surrounded by flowering plants, fruit trees and a fish pond with night blooming waterlily's.
A comfortable queen size bed has 100% cotton sheets and there is a queen size convertible couch if you need or like separate beds. A smart TV for watching Net Flicks and there is plenty of open space to stretch out and relax.
Outside the great room, on the covered patio area, is where my wonderful custom designed private shower is located!
There are extra beach towels a clothes line and some beach gear too.
Enjoy my paradise from this comfortable studio and see how the local folk live!

Summary: This was my third stay at Jill's Mermaid Studio in the small, quiet village of Napo'opo'o, about 30 - 40 min south of busy Kailua. The village is right on Kealakekua Bay and close to the best snorkelling on the Big Island (IMO). Jill is very knowledgeable about the area and is always helpful and positive. The apartment had everything: good wifi, all the cooking tools I needed, lots of room and a great outdoor shower.
