This is a lovely place to base yourself for explorations of the entire kona Kailua area. Fantastic snorkeling and swimming are just minutes away! Peter and Barbara were very gracious hosts and have thought of essentially everything you might need for a trip to the big island - especially things you can’t take on the plane with you! For example a small cooler and ice packs to keep your drinks and food cold, deck chairs for the beach, and a great selection of useful guide books. The cabin itself is very nicely laid out and the view is spectacular. Although there is a lot of alarmist news about volcanic eruptions, we had no issues with access to any part of the island and its business as usual everywhere (except for the National Park unfortunately- but that is only one destination of many on the island).
