The host. Paul was kind, thoughtful and quick to respond to emails. After reviewing over 300 of his reviews, we noted that he had not cancelled one reservation that he pre-arranged with his guests [which is the type of information we look for to help us decide which Air Bnb properties we will try to rent or not]. He also offered information about sites to see/things to do/where to eat in writing and, of course, upon request. Honestly? One could not ask for a better host. Its location. This clean, well-maintained property is situated on a road that runs parallel to the ocean and is often used by locals and visitors for running, cycling, walking, snorkeling and surfing. In fact, it’s right across from a beach that is used by some local surf companies to teach individuals how to surf and it is also located near one of the beaches that was described [by an author] as one of the better places on the island to snorkel. Beach Amenities. This property was stocked with items which we found useful at the beach that included beach umbrellas, towels, snorkeling equipment, suntan lotion, beach chairs and an ice box. Check in. We had no difficulty getting into the property at 1 a.m. Our flight arrived at about 11 p.m. and by the time we rented a vehicle and took the 35 to 40-minute drove from the airport into Kona, it was about 1 a.m. Check out. Our flight was scheduled to leave Kona at 11:50 p. m. and so we really appreciated our late check out Paul – thank you so much! It made our last day in Kona easier to plan and so much more enjoyable. Parking. We appreciated Paul’s parking spot because we did not see many [public] places to park along the road in front of this Air bnb property. Kitchen. When we were not eating out, Paul made it easy for us to make breakfast/lunch/dinner/snacks. I really liked using the blender to make my smoothies for breakfast. Pool. It was situated in a quiet, private area of the property that was nicely landscaped. It provided us with a great view of the ocean and it was rarely crowded. We did not get a chance to use the pool barb-b-q but if we were there longer, I am sure it would have come in handy. We would stay there again? Definitely!
