I had a great time in the Mango Suite at Paliuli. I was looking for a spot that would give me the local's experience of the Kona side of the island as well as provide easy access to Honaunau Bay for daily freediving sessions, and Paliuli was exceptional for both. The suite had everything I needed, and nothing I didn't, to make my two-week stay simple, comfortable, and affordable. And Honaunau Bay--probably the best freediving location in the US as well as being fantastic for reef snorkeling--is only a 5-minute drive.
