This Airbnb is really awesome. We stayed here for two weeks with our family of four(including an infant of 6 month).
The Appartement is very well stocked, the kitchen has everything you could ask for in regards of cutlery cooking gear and condiments.
The bath is also equipped with lots of stuff, besides shampoo, conditioner, after sun, etc. it is also equipped with flat iron, hair dryer etc…
You actually do not have to bring or buy anything for the bath or kitchen basics.
The apartment is also super equipped when traveling with a baby. Since Sarah and James have a daughter, they left much of the stuff they don‘t need for her anymore in the apartment. Meaning besides a pack‘n‘‘play you‘ll find a stroller, high chair and other equipment.
After asking they were even able to supply us with a little stool, so our daughter could use the toilet and the washing basin all by herself.
That leads to the probably biggest plus for this apartment: the hosts!
Sarah, James and her daughter are very caring and welcoming people. In fact it felt more like staying with friends(they live in the upper part of the house) than staying in a vaction rental.
Sarah and James gave us many tips on where to go or what to do and helped us without us asking where they could. For example, I wanted to do a lei for my mum, who was arriving later, but couldn‘t buy the required flowers. I told Sarah and she just went and asked some neighbors if she could pick some flowers for me!!
all these little things as the welcoming basket with local snacks and toys for the kids, as well as the provided snorkel/beach gear and the great hospitality made this an unforgettable stay for us.
The location is also great. It’s only about 10min from the airport in a really nice neighborhood. You will not be bothered by airport noise though. But it is next to a bigger street, which might be to noisy for light sleepers. But for us it was fine. It’s close to really nice beaches in the Kona/Kohala region.
If you want an authentic Hawaiian experience and find wonderful new friends then this is the place to book!
