Will and Kate were both there to welcome us into their cute little studio/home. They were very friendly and gave us our privacy when we needed it, but were always available and prompt with their communication.

The home itself is very clean and in a very safe neighborhood and just a short drive from pretty much everything (downtown, beach, restaurants, groceries, etc.). We were a little worried at first about not having any A/C, but didn't need it as the gentle breezes at night and the room fans kept us very comfortable. WiFi was very reliable and fast enough for us.

While there was no separate stove, there were plenty of provisions for cooking/grilling if you chose to eat in or refrigerate/heat leftovers. We were also pleasantly surprised to find beach gear, binoculars, and various travel guides (including the Big Island Revealed book!) available for our use.

If we are fortunate to visit again, we would love to stay here without any reservations.
