We really enjoyed the scenic, quiet, and lush tropical location. The house is comfortable and modestly appointed with a really great rear deck that overlooks the ocean and provided some fantastic sunsets. We prepared a lot of our own meals, which turned out to be a necessity, as the house is a good 45 to 55 minutes from Kailua depending on traffic. However, South Kona (and Volcanos NP) are more accessible from here.
