Frommer's Review

If you're planning to stay in South Kona, get on the phone right now and book this place -- this is the Hawaiian hideaway of your dreams. Host Clem Classen spent 2 years researching the elements of a perfect B&B, and the Horizon Guest House is the result. Its 40 acres of pastureland are located at an altitude of 1,100 feet. You can see 25 miles of coastline, from Kealakekua to just about South Point, yet you cannot see another structure or hear any sounds of civilization. The carefully thought-out individual units (all under one roof but positioned at an angle to one another so you don't see any other units) are filled with incredible Hawaiian furnishings, including hand-quilted Hawaiian bedspreads. Units also include private lanais with coastline views. The property features barbecue facilities, gardens everywhere, an outdoor shower, and plenty of beach toys. Clem whips up a gourmet breakfast in the main house, which also features a media room with library, video collection, TV (which you can take to your room if you use headphones so you won't disturb other guests), DVD, VCR, and cordless phone. At first glance, the rate may seem high, but once you're ensconced on the unique property, I think you'll agree it's worth every penny.

Facilities:
Large outdoor pool worthy of a big resort; Jacuzzi perfectly placed to watch the sunset behind Kealakekua Bay; complimentary washer/dryers; dataport; wireless Internet access
