Tamsen’s studio is extremely comfortable, private, and well located. We stayed four nights and cooked most of our meals. The studio had everything we needed and more! It’s a great place to relax away from the Kona crowds, though it’s only a few minutes away from restaurants, supermarkets, etc. It’s also centrally located for day trips to places closer to the leeward side of the Big Island, from Waipi’o Valley to South Point. Tamsen was great, easy to communicate with and very responsive. We would definitely recommend her place to anyone staying in Kona and looking for a more homey stay.
