We had a great time in Kona. The apartment (condo) was wonderful.
The beds were super comfortable and it was amazing to wake up to the sound of the waves crashing outside.
We enjoyed watching all the locals surfing right outside our door.
The pool and hot tub were really nice, too! The pool is big so you can really swim.
The only drawback was that I love to swim in the ocean and I was a little intimidated to get in the water at that location. We did go to the beach down the road (Magic Sand) and we had a great swim experience.
There are so many things to see and do in the area.
