We felt welcomed, partly by the introductory video--totally high tech! The studio was larger, even more visually appealing and comfortable than I had anticipated from the photos. My husband was stunned by how gorgeous this studio is upon arrival when one first sees it. We were impressed by Simone’s responsiveness when I had inquired about the disposal of fruit scraps (to avoid fruit flies) while there. Even though the studio is attached to the main house,
the sense of privacy is remarkable. We really enjoyed spending time on the back lanai with an ocean view, whether watching the sun set or having a tropically-inspired breakfast… The bathroom has been recently remodeled and is exquisite! The rental's location is high and therefore cooler than downtown Kona. It’s well located near the highway, the Captain Cook area, coffee country as well as Kona. There's snorkel gear to use while there as well. Mahalo Thomas and Simone!
