The Sugar Shack was a great place to stay. It was very comfortable and Kapa, the resident dog was a joy to spend time with. Kelly and Kim were excellent hosts that kept great communication with us, especially when several mishaps occurred (hot water heater and refrigerator went out and there was a roach problem due to previous tenant that did not keep place clean). When I contacted Kelly about the issues, her and Kim were quick to respond and help take care of the problems, so that our stay would be enjoyable. Kelly would also follow up to see how we were doing, which was very thoughtful. We were also able to enjoy the macadamia nuts and other treats from their garden, and the coffee was supah ono! Overall had a wonderful time here and would definitely come back again. Thanks for a great stay!

NOTE: our stay during this particular year was really bad for mosquitos. From what everyone told us that we met, it was the worst year for them since it had not rained in awhile and when it did, there was alot of water pools around Kona (recipe for lots of mosquitos!). As a result, we were not able to enjoy the fire pit or lanai as much because the mosquitos were crazy! All our efforts at mosquito repellant did not deter the hungry buggahs! We stayed indoors and enjoyed the sounds of the coqui frogs, which was nice. This was an issue that all of Kona was dealing with, so it had nothing to do with the actual property. We actually got bitten more off of the property when we explored that side of the island.
