My girlfriend and I stayed with Bob and Mae for 4 weeks in January 2021. We had an absolutely AMAZING time - the views from the farm overlook the ocean and provide the best view for the Hawaiian sunsets. The land is incredibly lush with orange, papaya, lemon, avacado trees, and of course the coffee! The cottage has a kitchen, small corner that serves as a workspace, a living area, and a bedroom. We were working remotely and found that it actually wasn’t too bad to wake up at 4-5 AM. As such, we had questions about the WiFi and I hope that anyone reading this can get some clarity on this. The internet was able to support zoom calls most of the day, especially in the northwest corner where the table is located. During certain parts of the day the signal can get a bit weak but a phone hotspot was strong enough to support all of our needs. It’s about a 15 minute drive down the hill into downtown Kailua-Kona. There is also a cat who was very sweet! A real joy to pet her while drinking coffee and enjoying the sunrise.
Overall, we would recommend anyone coming to Kona to stay here. Thank you so much Bob and Mae for an unforgettable month!
