A great location, balcony/large window faces the ocean, so plenty of ocean sounds to overpower the street sounds. Public beach right next door, and hosts provide towels, chairs, etc. Condo is a few miles south of the main part of Kona, so restaurants/stores not in walking distance. Kitchen helpful, grocery store about a mile away, outside grill and pool for guests. Lots of nice touches, we would definitely stay there again. Hosts live in the area and responded to phone calls.
