Excellent in every aspect! Such a positive experience. We will return!
Our host, Ineke, was a timely, superb communicator. Any question was answered promptly. Check in was a breeze. Instructions on how to access the condo were clear, concise and accurate. We walked into a dream. This unit has a specular view of the ocean. The waves crash practically right outside your lanai door. Sunset! Yes, the sunset can be viewed poolside which is located one floor down or walk to the end of the hall to a 180 view as the sun sinks below the horizon. The night sky is beautiful.
The condo is very well equipped with beach chairs, blankets, pillows, & kitchen supplies with plenty of room to sit inside or out. The guest directory is filled with so many tips on things to do and see. It was thoughtfully put together. Ineke's unit/complex is very close to town, actually walking distance. The Royal Kona Inn next door is very convenient for breakfast, lunch or happy hour.
We toured the Greenwell Farms Coffee farm and Matt gave an extremely informative tour. We also recommend the Manta Ray Snorkel Night Time tour. We went with Eka Canoe Adventure and it was a once in a lifetime experience. Loved it!
Overall, the complex is quiet and respectful. The pool! The pool is fabulous. We grilled on site and ate poolside as we watched the sunset.
Check out went smoothly. We asked Ineke if we could extend our visit and she was very accommodating to our request. However, we decided to explore another part of the Big Island and decided to reluctantly check out.
If you are considering booking this unit, you will be so very happy you did. The pictures of this unit are excellent and the actual experience is superior. Thank you Ineke for making our stay in Kona relaxing and memorable. It's not too often you can experience Paradise . . .
