Mark was a friendly host and very easy to talk with. He offered some great suggestions for the Big Island. His place is removed from the hustle and bustle of Kona, which we really enjoyed, and it was super clean. The bed was very comfortable. He offered us some beach towels and fresh papaya, which we really appreciated. For the most part, everything was as expected but we found the place to be priced a little high for what was offered (when comparing to other Airbnb’s we have stayed at) but perhaps this is because Kona is a tourist hot spot.
