Look no further. You've found your perfect stay in the heart of Kona! This was my first visit to island, and I'm glad I chose to stay here. The unit is smack in middle of downtown so there are plenty of restaurants and cafes within a short walk.
The unit's much bigger than I expected. The complex was very peaceful and quiet throughout the day and they enforce quiet time after 10pm (until 7am?) so I had no trouble sleeping. AC is also available which is rare on the island. The bed was comfortable and very clean along with the rest of the place. Check-in and parking was also very easy.
Krista did a fantastic job putting this AirBnb together with its guest(s) in mind. Shampoo, body wash, and towels are available at many Airbnbs, but Krista went beyond that and provided things such as sunscreen, beach towels and chairs, snorkels, and even umbrellas! There is also a guidebook she put together and lists some of the top restaurants and beaches along with local information about each one.
What I appreciated the most was Krista's friendliness and communication before and during my stay. She guided me throughout the check-in process and followed up daily to see if I needed anything. She was more than happy to provide recommendations and answer any questions I had. I asked if she knew of any longboard rental shops in the area and she took the time to make some calls within minutes of asking! I felt like I had a personal concierge. This was truly a 5 star experience.
Thank you for everything Krista!
