Chandy's place was exactly as described here - clean, cozy and comfortable. Chandy and her family (including her dog, Grizzly) were extremely friendly, helpful and were great hosts. We got to chat with her several nights during our stay and we consider her a friend now :). She goes the extra mile to ensure that the guests have a good stay.

If you want to explore Kailua-Kona area this listing is extremely comfortable and literally 4 minutes from the airport and 10 minutes from Kona. Parking was plenty.

Chandy sent us a very detailed email with everything we need to know about Big Island- places to see, eat, hangout etc. and that was very useful to us. She provided us additional towels to use at the beach. She was very accommodating about us checking in a hour earlier than the listing.

They made us coffee really early in the morning for us when we had plans to go out.

It is a no-brainer that when we return we will look for Chandy's place as our first option.
