Loved this house! Not ideally if the you want to be in center of town, but perfect for a more “central” location for a day in Kona, another in Hilo, and a launch pad for Volcanoes NP (one entrance 30 min, main just over 1hr). This was our third time to the big island. The snorkeling out front was in our top five (out of 15 or so around Bali, Hawaii, Great Barrier). Surf was a bit rough, don’t turn back to ocean when getting out! We took out two of our family members for first time and they did fine. Keep in mind the island doesn’t really have beaches, but tons of adventure opportunities and this place has amenities for that! Appreciated all the floatation devices, snorkeling gear, kayaks, and propane for grilled meals at home. The decks were amazing to spend evenings watching sunsets. Six of us stayed here and we were very comfortable. I would recommend bug spray! The hosts provided great communication and the place was easy to find in a dark rainy night.
