Pros - Beautiful home and gated community. Everything you need is available in the home. Sumit is a wonderful host. Provided excellent guides to restaurants and must see attractions.
Cons - AC is set to 72 degrees. You are unable to adjust per your personal preferences. It was not cool enough for us. However after contacting Sumit the ac was lowered to 70 remotely and made a difference at times. Sumit provides a lot of "instructions" before and after stay i.e. wash towels, take out trash, turn ac off upon leaving etc. A lot of this is common sense and of course nice things to do. However when we are on vacation (us - honeymoon), we wanted to relax not wash towel, pull trash and recycling bins out to the curb etc. No glasses by the pool, understand but no paper cups provided. We used water bottles by the pool to drink other beverages besides water. Imagine that..... There is only one TV in the master bedroom, no TV's in the other two bedrooms. TV in the living and dinning area. If we were going as a family that would have been a issue. The lighting outside the property was a whole other quest, there was not nearly enough. We used our cell phones to light the way to the front door. We didn't utilize the beautiful pool /backyard after dark, because we had no idea what other guest might join us. LOL. The entire gated community is dark.
All in all this is a great property and deserving of five stars, however would not be our first choice to re rent upon return to Kona.
Thank you again Sumit for hosting us.
