Pictures don't do this house and garden justice. The garden has an abundance to exotic plants and flowers. It's located high enough up in a lovely quiet residential area of Kona Palisades that you see sweeping views of the area below and the ocean in the distance. The house was spotlessly clean and was very well equipped. If you forget anything, there is a convenience store 5mins drive away. The house comes with a great collection of DVDs to watch in the evenings. The beautiful Lanai ((balcony) was a perfect spot to hang out at any time of day. The beds were comfy and spacious. Rae was a great host and even retrieved an iPad I had accidently left in a drawer and allowed me to meet him at his house to get it. We'd definitely rent this house again.
