We spent a few days exploring Kona from our home base at KJ's, and we couldn't have hoped for a better place to stay. The cottage is in a gorgeous location with a beautiful view, which was a great welcome to Hawai'i. The interior was bigger than we realized, with everything we needed, and we had a great time relaxing on the lanai eating macadamia nuts and farmer's market fruit and meeting some of the local geckos.
Despite the lush and tranquil surroundings, it only took us 15 minutes to get to downtown Kailua, so we had no trouble getting where we needed to go. Would definitely stay again.
