This was a great stay in Kona. We were a day late due to flights, but we still enjoyed our very short stay. Location is wonderful - walk less than a minute to see the ocean, get something to eat, shop. Pool and spa are clean and relaxing. Staff is friendly. Guests while we were there were also friendly and sociable - we met local travelers and travelers from far away. Room is lovely - nothing luxurious, but very pretty and well-appointed. Hawaii is pricy in general, but this is a great alternative to paying the price for large hotel. Would definitely stay again and for longer. Perfect for a young or young at heart couple or a solo traveler.
