A Lush Retreat
Nestled in a lush tropical bush setting, 'Birdsong & Bananas' lived up to the name! It feels both private & secluded, while at the same time being a short stroll to everything Kohukohu has to offer. Lise & Claudio were thoughtful and communicative hosts, keen to make sure we had everything we needed, including time to ourselves. Comfy, super clean, unique...and a playground over the road in the local school which our son loved. Can't wait to go back!
