Lynn's place is a nice option in the Kona area if you don't want to be in all the activity of the resorts and town. The outdoor gazebo area is stunning and so peaceful. We enjoyed the animals on the hillside out back though the dogs could get yippy during the daytime. The very winding drive up from Kona is probably not for those prone to motion sickness. You're not going to be walking anywhere from the apartment, so if that's something you like to do, you'll want to pick something in town. There's not a closet or really enough room in the bedroom for suitcases so we just lived out of ours in the living room. The kitchen and bathroom are spacious. It was nice to have a separate washer and dryer for guest use so we didn't have to worry about overlap. The family (including children) is present upstairs, but very respectful. There are also neighbors so this isn't rural, but you're not going to hear traffic. Overall, a lovely stay for us while we were visiting Kona.
