Our stay at Hale Kea was awesome. The place was bright, airy, and spotlessly clean. During our stay, we loved the comfortable breeze that circulated into the apartment, the sound of the birds in the morning, and the tiny day geckos that would sporadically pop out on the lanai. The White's were also kind enough to leave a towel and some bath toys for our baby which we really appreciated. There was easy access to touristy areas like Aliii drive, as well as smaller stores/restaurants on Mamalahoa Hwy. My husband also liked taking a short drive in the morning to Kona Joe's Coffee where they have a great garden area. All in all we highly recommend Hale Kea.
