this is a great location for being close to downtown Kona. you are easily walking distance to Ali'i Drive and the waterfront. it's not always easy to park near the condo, if that's important to you. the condo is nice and well-appointed, but the kitchen is tiny. there is a refrigerator, but no freezer and no ice on the premises. we bought a small cooler to keep ice in. this is a great place if you want to stay in the action.
