Decent place, pretty small but has a cute coffee bar setup. A little overpriced for what it is compared to nearby places in Kona and South Kona we have stayed at. We were quite uncomfortable with the outdoor shower setup- it lacks real privacy, especially with the window from the shower that points toward the main house.
Be aware that walkway leading to the studio is VERY steep. I am in good shape and it was difficult to get a small rolling suitcase and carry on up the hill- my uber driver had to help me. The biggest concern for us was safety- the lock on the sliding door is difficult to lock, and doesn’t seem very securely locked when you are inside. There is some sort of dry river bed or walkway behind the unit and we could hear footsteps all night- it was unclear if they were human or animal, but it was hard to sleep knowing the door wasn’t very securely locked. My daughter lives on island and with the uptick in crime here since the pandemic, it’s a legitimate concern.
Something good: the patio is beautiful at night with the twinkling lights.
