Let me begin by saying we had an unforgetable time at Kona, thanks to Jolee, Ruben, and Miriam. The house is located on a quiet street just a short walk away from the water. Jolee was out, so she left the door open for us, which was convenient.

The room was on the first floor just to the left and it was incredibly clean, which is important to my wife and I, and we loved the decor of the place. Jolee provided clean towels for us to shower with and even had beach towels available upon request.

We were traveling around the island so we didn't spend much time on the house except to sleep and shower, but with the short time there we enjoyed the common area and the balcony on the second floor. The view is amazing and very relaxing.

We booked a night manta ray dive through Jolee, which is where we met Ruben and Miriam, who are genuinely kind and enthusiastic people. Ruben and Miriam, were both volunteers, who help out Jolee and they were our guides for the excursion. What an adventure paddle boarding out in the water where we used flashlights to snorkel around the water to view the manta rays. Ruben and Miriam allowed us as much time as we wanted to swim around and they made my wife and I completely comfortable as we swam through the dark water.
