This place is gorgeous!! We saw the nice pictures online and had high hopes and we were still impressed. The interiors look fancy and brand new. The microwave, oven, and stove are all high-tech. The living room door connecting to the patio completely opens up and you can overlook the golf course from inside or from this very comfy big round sofa chair in the patio. There’s also a grill in the patio and ambiant lights that turn on in the evening. The master suite has a Japanese style shower and a nice bathtub that fit both me and my bf. Everything is upscale and elegant - great value for the price.
You have access to a pool and hot tub about 2 min walk down the street. It was empty both times we went and the pool water was relatively warm. We had a great time!
The host also gave us beach chairs, umbrella, and towels to use. The location is very convenient. Seaquest is next door within walking distance - one of the most highly rated company where we did the 2-location snorkeling tour (highly recommend) and night manta ray tour. There’s a shopping center and grocery store across the street and a number of nice retaurants within short driving distance. The guestbook also outlines nearby beaches and snorkeling spots, etc. with a map.
P. S.: We found some milipeds in the garage and the bathrooms. They were tiny and harmless and seemed like a golf course thing or a Big Island bug thing rather than property cleanness. I freaked out every time I saw one and yelled at my bf to get it for me, though none of the guys seemed to care they were there ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
