I had a very warm welcome from Kristina the night of my arrival. The waterfront studio is cozy and tucked under the house which was nice for privacy. I picked the studio for Kristina's positive reviews and the place looks just like the pictures. The studio was very clean and neat. If you are looking for a quieter place to relax away from the hustle and bustle of Kona this is the place for you. But I will warm you besides a few local food spots 20 minutes away the majority of food is 45 minutes away. Which has nothing to do with Kristina's place just something I didn't realized until I had to drive it.
