Robert's place was a lovely spot to set up home for the week we were in and around Kona. The location, best for two people, is perfect, across Ali'i Drive directly in front of the beach. Watch the sunset every night and head to the local coffee beach shack and excellent restaurant right across the street. The other benefit of the location is that it is convenient for adventures both north and south on the island. We liked being a bit outside of town so we could set out to the amazing snorkeling and dive spots in either direction. You can catch the shuttle bus from his place or take a bicycle to town.
The place itself is remodeled in a modern, rustic fashion and spotlessly clean. We like cooking and the kitchen cookware and essentials are in perfect condition. We love the tropical climate and prefer a place without A/C so we can acclimate quicker so this worked well for us. We kept the front door and sliding door open for the cross breeze.
We highly recommend this place if you need an affordable but classy place to call home while on The Big Island.
