Wow. Wow. Wow.
I have rented many places in my life, but I cannot even begin to explain just how wonderful it was to stay in this classic, eye-pleasing, historic beach bungalow with the ocean across the street!!! If you are even considering staying somewhere else please stop...take a deep breath... close all of the other windows on your computer screen.. stop worrying.... and just book Steve and Diane's house. Just do it. I PROMISE you that it will be best thing that you have done for yourself lately! If Airbnb would let me give you my phone number I would just put it here so you could call me and ask me in person. I'd take the time to convince you. Steve and Diane were absolutely THE MOST AMAZING HOSTS! I honestly don't have the words to explain their generosity, courtesy, wisdom, communication, and pure friendliness. These are amazing people who saved an amazing property from destruction and now offer it to you to rent...so please do.
The house was just perfect form my wife, son (1.5 years old), and me. Absolutely perfect. Spend some of your days walking to all of things you would want to see along the beach because yes, you can WALK there, from your house! You have parking at Steve and Diane's so why not leave the car there? This is one of the key benefits of staying at this spot, LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Why rent a house in the hills, or a room in a hotel down the street when you can have the bulk of a HOUSE for yourselves with an awesome kitchen, living room area, indoor porch, front lanai, and rooftop deck by the ocean!! The kitchen was one of the best stocked kitchens I've ever had the pleasure of renting, and there are directions to help you find anything you need in the house. There is also a grill out back. We were able to cook a few meals and enjoy the house wile saving money.
Oh yeah, the rooftop deck!! Yes yes yes yes yes, the decks! We enjoyed, in fact relished our coffee and late night drinks on the lanai and rooftop deck, and they will forever be in our dreams. I wish I was there right now. Yes right now. It will seriously make you want to quit your job... The ocean is absolutely right out your front door, across the street.
The rooms were so very comfortable, and at night the ocean breeze comes sweeping through the house like an invigorating elixir and attitude adjustment, the sound of big waves waves crashing against the shorline. If you want a real-life Kona experience right along the walk-able, happening area of Kona but just off the hustle and bustle then this is the place for YOU! Please, please, please do yourself a favor and rent this awesome house from Steve and Diane, you will never regret it I promise! Thank you Steve and Diane for letting folks experience this beautiful home for themselves and make their own memories that will last a lifetime.
